Isabella, toddler
Tongariro – Central North Island
Days usually start early for parents, and our photo shoot in the central North Island was no exception as we awoke before dawn to capture the sunrise at Tongariro National Park. Far from any busy roads and off the beaten track, the views of snow-capped mountains and crystal-clear Lake Otamangakau set the scene – the ultimate playground for two-year-old Isabella. Dad Dino joined in on the fun and played peek-a-boo behind the tall raupo reeds and toi toi. The game would’ve gone on all day if it wasn’t time for brekkie!
