Residential Architectural Photography in Auckland – Waitoki House

Waitoki House is a contemporary rural residence north of Auckland, designed to sit lightly within its bush-clad setting and open onto expansive outdoor living areas. This architectural photography project focused on capturing the home’s connection to landscape, natural material textures, and the flow between sheltered interior spaces and open terraces. The imagery was created for builder and architectural marketing use, documenting both lifestyle-focused design and refined construction detailing.
