Fiona's art is rooted in a lifelong intrigue with the power of the photographic medium. While she has only resided in the region for the past 18 years, she quickly developed a deep connection to the stunning and ever-shifting topographies of the Mahurangi area. She is drawn to the vastness of these coastlines—the interplay of beaches, sky, and sea that continually informs her perspective.

Her current body of work is shaped by an extraordinary personal quest: swimming daily throughout the entirety of 2025. This discipline has yielded a compelling and intimate portfolio that chronicles the nuances of a year-long journey. The collection presents a powerful visual narrative of the New Zealand coast, capturing a spectrum of emotion and light—from the dark, brooding atmospheres of deep winter to the light-filled anticipation of the summer months.

Through her lens, Fiona translates these daily physical and emotional experiences into evocative landscape photography, exploring themes of endurance, nature's transient beauty, and the profound human relationship with the oceanic environment.
