Cate Rainbow lives in St Heliers, Auckland with her husband, three children and cavoodle dog Lulu who you can find sitting quietly on the gym couch most days!

At 16, Cate started a photography business Photos By Cate Rainbow which grew to become a well-known brand in Auckland. As lead photographer for Maserati, Lamborghini and Ferrari across New Zealand, Cate traveled photographing luxury cars and their sponsorship brands which lead her to meet some interesting people such as Ralph Schumacher, Bob Geldof, Pamela Anderson, NZ Prime Ministers and global consulates. Cate was sponsored for three years by initially Alfa Romeo and then Volkswagon to drive their latest vehicles to all the hot spot photo shoots around Auckland and the Coromandel. Recognised as one of the top wedding, fashion and portrait photographers across New Zealand and the Pacific, it was the business development and relationship building that Cate enjoyed the most. The art of building a trusted relationship and truly seeing people for who they are and encouraging them to be their best version is what makes Cate a trusted and dedicated personal trainer.

Cate has experience in dealing with the full spectrum of human emotions and has learned many effective strategies to combat the stresses, anxieties and up’s and down’s of life. Cate has a personal interest in the ancient Indian science of Ayurveda and their traditional medicinal herbs which offer such powerful healing benefits. Cate also has experience in gut-health and effective methods of repair.

After a long passion for food and it’s possible medicinal properties, in 2022 Cate qualified (with an average of 98%) with a Diploma in Nutrition from The Nutrition Institute. It made sense to grow this knowledge so she went on to gain a qualification as a Personal Trainer and Health Coach, at NZ Institute of Sport. Cate has a personal interest in women’s health and prescribing fitness and nutrition methods to work in unison to achieve faster and safer results.

Cate will offer each member of Personalised Fitness + Nutrition the emotional support and knowledge they need to REACH THEIR GOALS.
