Yacht and Boat Photography Auckland Hauraki Gulf Specialists
Marine photography for brokers, private sellers, and owners. On-the-water shots and brokerage listings that show your vessel at its best.
Sell Your Boat Faster With Photography That Does It Justice
A boat listed with mediocre photos takes longer to sell and typically achieves a lower price. Buyers want to imagine themselves on the water — and that requires images that capture the feel of the vessel, not just its spec sheet. Klarapix specialises in marine photography on the Hauraki Gulf. We work with brokers, dealers, and private sellers to produce brokerage-quality photography — both on the water and in-berth — that helps listings stand out on Trade-a-Boat, YachtHub, and broker websites. We know the Gulf, we know the light, and we know what makes a vessel look its best.
How it works
Marine shoots require coordination around tides, weather windows, and access — so we handle all of it. Here is how we manage the process from your first enquiry to final image delivery, so you can focus on being on the water.
Brokerage Listing Photography
Comprehensive on-the-hard and in-berth photography covering hull, deck, interior, and detail shots. Formatted and ready for brokerage platforms with consistent, professional presentation.
On-the-Water Action Shots
The real magic happens under sail or at speed. We coordinate on-water shoots from a chase boat in the Hauraki Gulf — capturing your vessel in its natural environment with great light and real energy.
Owner and Lifestyle Photography
Not selling — just want great photos of your pride and joy? Owner lifestyle shoots capture you and your crew on the water. Perfect for personal memories, social media, and club racing coverage.

Recent client feedback from Auckland-based businesses
We recently worked with Klara Rider, and the results were outstanding. The in-situ images of our door hardware and kitchen handles were beautifully composed, true to detail, and perfectly captured the quality of our products. Professional, creative, easy to work with, and delivered exactly what we needed. Highly recommended. Thank you Klara!
I had a great experience working with Klara for my corporate headshots. She was professional, friendly, and made sure the entire session was comfortable and easy. Klara has a great eye for detail and made the process feel relaxed and natural. I’m really happy with the final photos and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for high-quality, professional shots.
I approached Klara as I needed some urgent work required for my new tennis clothing & accessories brand that recently launched – Henson Tennis.
Klara was super efficient and the quality of work within the timeframe given was excellent. Made a big difference to the eCommerce site when it went live.
Highly recommended!

Frequently Asked Questions
What areas do you operate in?
We are based in Gulf Harbour and primarily operate on the Hauraki Gulf — Waiheke, Kawau, Great Barrier, and the inner harbours. Contact us for shoots further afield.
What is needed for an on-water shoot?
We will coordinate with you on location, weather window, and timing. We typically use a separate chase boat for under-sail or under-power shots — this is included in our on-water packages.
Can you photograph a boat currently listed for sale?
Absolutely. Brokerage photography is one of our most common enquiries. We can liaise directly with the broker to coordinate access and timing.
Do you retouch reflections and gelcoat imperfections?
Yes. Standard retouching includes window and portlight cleanup, hull reflections, and sky enhancement. We want the boat looking its best.
What if the weather does not cooperate on the day?
We will reschedule if conditions are not safe or photogenic. We are flexible — the goal is great photos, not just getting it done quickly.
