"I am constantly in awe of our natural world, and it is that fascination and deep respect for our mother earth that inspires me to continue on my landscape photography journey and capture nature at its absolute best" -
Rach Stewart, New Zealand Photographer
Hi there!
THANKS FOR STOPPING BY
Hi, I’m Rach Stewart, a professional landscape photographer based in Mount Maunganui, New Zealand. With over a decade of experience capturing the breathtaking beauty of nature, I’m incredibly passionate about sharing the extraordinary landscapes of my home country and beyond.
My longing to be with nature mixed in with a love of fun, adventure and exploring is what I think characterises my landscape photography and forever fuels me to seek out and find the beauty created by the natural world.
Through this passion of mine I have amassed a huge following of over 350,000 followers on Instagram and Facebook and my New Zealand photography images have been published worldwide including magazines such as National Geographic, National Geographic Travel, The Daily Mail, plus many more.
My work has been featured in private collections and galleries around the world, with several pieces commanding prices of up to $25,000 NZD. I’m honoured that my photography has resonated with art collectors globally, capturing the beauty of nature in a way that speaks to both local and international audiences.
I have been awarded Silver and Bronze medals in the prestigious International Epson Pano Awards for my New Zealand landscape photography and my pictures can be seen in many client campaigns including Air New Zealand, American Express, and Canon New Zealand.
I am inspired by landscapes, and I love to travel to new places, exploring the unknown and finding the all-important elements that connect humans with nature.
My use of long exposure photography in my images is a style I love and perhaps signifies my content as being my own. It is a method of photography I was intrigued by right from the beginning, and always keeps me trying to perfect my art.
I love being outdoors. I love to hike and be with the mountains, but you will also find me surfing at the beach and spending my summers in the ocean. It is an added bonus for me that I get to capture moments I experience on the camera.
Verified on Instagram and Facebook, my images and profile have gained huge popularity across these platforms allowing my content to be seen all almost every corner of the earth! I am available for social media influencing and marketing, all my images are available for license, and you can also join me for photography workshops throughout each season of the year.
