Reviewers note magical scenes and striking bird images as recurring themes in client feedback.

Tracey Perrin Photography operates from Wainoni in Christchurch and focuses on portrait and nature photography. The studio continues to run Faerietastic Portraits alongside broader artistic photography work, serving families and nature lovers in the Canterbury area.

Your Google listing

Tracey Perrin Photography - Faerietastic Portraits shows strong overall Google Business Listing health, with a score of 8.1 out of 10, indicating solid completeness and verification. Key strengths include a claimed listing, a visible website link, an open-for-business status, an existing listing title, and a visible phone number. Opportunities focus on improving the listing description and continuing to add high-quality photos to reach the local midpoint.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    ClaimedYour listing is claimed, so you control what it says, you can reply to reviews, and edits suggested by the public come to you first.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Description lengthYour description gives a reader less than half the listings here do, so someone reading yours and then a competitor's gets less to go on from you.
  • 2
    Photos on the listingThere are more pictures on most listings around you than on yours, so a customer flicking between them gets a fuller look at the businesses either side of you.
  • 3
    Category fitYour category set covers less of this market than half the field, so there are jobs being searched for near you that your listing is not eligible to appear in.

Your reviews

Tracey Perrin Photography - Faerietastic Portraits shows a healthy Google review profile with a 4.9/10 health score context and a top 10% star rating. The strongest finding is the excellent star rating; a key opportunity is improving engagement by replying to reviews and growing total review count to boost trust and confidence.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Star ratingYour rating is among the highest in this market and it does its own selling - a customer sees it before they read anything else.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceRating and review volume together sit well behind this market, which means a customer comparing you has both halves of the picture reading thin.
  • 2
    Response rateNone of your reviews have a reply, which means a customer reading them sees your happiest and your angriest customers with nothing from you in between.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits well below what buyers here are used to seeing, which means a customer comparing options side by side reads you as the less proven choice.

Where you show up on the map

Tracey Perrin Photography - Faerietastic Portraits shows moderate visibility on Google Maps with a health score of 4.3 out of 10. The business ranks well for several photographer and photography service terms in Avonside and Wainoni, indicating strong niche terms, but overall local presence remains limited. Focus should be on expanding borough visibility while maintaining top keyword rankings.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches, but below most businesses in your suburb, so a customer looking from a nearby street is shown someone else first.
  • 2
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across more of the surrounding suburbs than the middle of the field, so customers searching from outside your own patch are finding you.

Where customers find you

Tracey Perrin Photography - Faerietastic Portraits shows a low health score of 2.1/10 for social and directory presence. Strengths include an outstanding Facebook profile with very high trust and a well-maintained LinkedIn presence. Key opportunities focus on activating Instagram and TikTok profiles, improving Yellow and TikTok directory listings, and optimising Yellow profile details to boost discoverability.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Having a Facebook page at allWe found your Facebook Profile page, and the trail is strong enough that nobody would question it is yours - it is linked from something you own, or it dominates a search for your name.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Instagram ProfileWe could not find an active Instagram Profile profile for your business, so a customer who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 2
    Tiktok ProfileWe could not find an active TikTok account for your business, so anyone who looks for you there finds nothing.
  • 3
    Yellow ProfileWe could not find an active Yellow Profile listing for your business, which means anyone checking you there finds nothing and moves on to whoever is listed.

05Facebook pageMarketbase business report

Your Facebook page

Strengths

  • ✓
    Where your page link pointsThe link on your page goes to a domain that is yours, so a visitor who came for the photos leaves on your terms and the enquiry lands in your inbox rather than someone else's.
  • ✓
    A page address you choseThe address on your page carries your business name, so a customer told about you at a barbecue can find the page by typing what they heard.
  • ✓
    A phone numberA phone number shows on your page, so the person who found you on Facebook before they found your website can ring straight from it.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Recommendations on your pageA couple of recommendations have landed on the page, fewer than most here.
  • 2
    What your page says about youYour intro runs to a line, shorter than most pages here, so it names the business without settling whether you do the particular job the reader came about or cover the suburb they live in.
  • 3
    People following your pageMore people follow your page than most in this market, which means a post can travel past your own customers when one of them shares it into a local group.

06Your websiteMarketbase business report

Your website

Tracey Perrin Photography - Faerietastic Portraits shows mixed on-page SEO health, with a health score of 5.3 out of 10. Strengths include a valid favicon, an SEO-friendly URL, an H1 tag, a relevant title tag, and a page under 256KB. Primary opportunities focus on adding a meta description, improving the on-page SEO score, adjusting the title tag length, improving text-to-page size ratio and reducing render-blocking resources.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Domain UniquenessYour web address is yours alone, so everything your site earns - links, mentions, search standing - accumulates under your name and stays with the business.
  • ✓
    FaviconThe tab your site opens in carries your own icon, so a customer with a dozen tabs going can find their way back to you by sight.
  • ✓
    Page file sizeYour home page is light enough to open quickly on a phone with a weak signal, which is where most people meet a local business for the first time.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Meta descriptionYour pages carry no summary line of your own, so the two lines under your name in search results are whatever Google decides best fits the search.
  • 2
    On-page scoreSeveral checks on your home page fail at once, and a visitor meets all of them in the first few seconds: a slow open, no clear heading, nothing under your name in search that says what you do.
  • 3
    Separate sites linking to youOnly a handful of separate websites link to yours, well behind most of this market.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Tracey Perrin Photography's opening hours partly match local demand but show gaps. The studio is well open during Monday afternoons (1pm-4pm) and Thursday 4pm, aligning with peak search times. However it is closed during several high-demand windows-Monday late morning/noon, Wednesday midday and evening, and Thursday late morning. A small amount of low-demand open time on Tuesday mornings/afternoons suggests minor inefficiency.
