Manja Wachsmuth

Auckland - photographers

Manja Wachsmuth has spent the last 20 years in the professional photography industry, shooting advertising campaigns and editorial content for clients in Europe, US, Australia and running her own business in New Zealand since 2010.

Now living in Auckland with her family, Manja has established herself as a sought-after food and lifestyle photographer with a passion for storytelling.

Manja brings a direct approach and strong sense of purpose to every shoot. Her goal is always to create authentic images that are beautiful in their detail and her determination for turning even the most unattractive into something beautiful and delicious proves her skills in food photography is second to none.

Her most recent work includes the multi awardwinning “Bug Project” created with stylist Fiona Hugues, and two books published this year, one of which for New Zealand awarded chef Monique Fiso.
