Kia Ora
I'm Lize Deng, a documentary and lifestyle photographer based in Auckland, New Zealand. I love exploring Aotearoa's stunning landscapes, but I also have a thing for photographing human interactions, especially with the natural world. A pianist, I'm fascinated by the intersection of the performing and visual arts and can often be found photographing theatre and dance onstage.
I've been taking photos for as long as I can remember, and I have come to appreciate photography as a powerful medium for storytelling. I always strive to capture special moments in the most authentic and visually striking way possible.
When I'm not making artwork, I enjoy writing, being sarcastic, and making tea, in no particular order.
