About Me

Hello

I am Lakmal Athapaththu professional photographer based in Auckland. My friends and family call me ‘Lakaa’ and I initiated it my business name with the thought, that my work will bound the various emotions of people around me.

I cover family & baby shoots, portraits and party events for almost eight years. I believe upskilling, being relevant and passion for creativity has made my journey fruitful to achieve the contentment and repetitive clients.
