Hey there!

I'm Meghan Maloney

It's no secret .... I am head over heels in love with NZ!

The more I explore New Zealand, the more I fall in love with our country. I'm SUPER passionate about sharing moments and experiences that I know others will also enjoy through my landscape photography.

So where did it all begin? After writing a family blog for a few years, I realised I was happiest in the great outdoors capturing the beauty of NZ. We moved from Wellington to Cambridge in 2015 and I started exploring around the Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Coromandel discovering many hidden gems worth visiting! I'm a sucker for a great sunrise or sunset and I love spending my days chasing waterfalls and beautiful reflections.

I've travelled the length of NZ - all the way from the tip of Northland to the Catlins in the deep south to bring you images and experiences that capture the very essence of NZ. My great passion is to encourage you to experience these wonderful places yourself and to help you improve your landscape photography to create images that will blow you away.

I'm a Sony NZ Digital Imaging Advocate which means I partner with Sony to promote the brand and a build a community of photographers with landscape photography workshops and other photography events around New Zealand.

Sony Photographer Features

In 2020, I worked on an exciting new campaign with Sony to promote the flagship A7R series of full-frame cameras and their top of the range G Master lenses (I shoot with the a7RIV and 2 GM lenses currently).

It was an honour to be chosen as the only New Zealander and female on this new campaign which features the work of 6 photographers from across Australia and New Zealand with my contribution to the campaign here

In March 2020, I also hopped across the ditch to Sydney just before all the COVID-19 travel restrictions came into force to shoot the interview about my photography journey, memorable photography moments, favourite gear, and advice for aspiring photographers. You can watch the interview over on the left of this page.

For the past three years, I've also been a judge in the Landscape Category of the Sony Alpha AU/NZ awards, and it has been a thrill to see the amazingly talented photographers we have submitting incredible work in the competition.

In 2023, I'll also be joining several Sony Australia/NZ representatives as a Photography Guide on the Intrepid Travel Photography Program in Antarctica - to say I'm excited about this opportunity is an understatement!
