Yes,, I've been pretty thoroughly through PapersPast.  There are lots of articles and ads about her, but not one picture so far as I have  been able to ascertain

Hello...

The Methodist Archives of NZ have a large photographic collection but, unfortunately, Emma is not mentioned as a subject. That doesn't necessarily mean she's not in one of the albums, such as the various Methodist Church conferences held in the 1900's, the 1903 Bibles in School conference held in Wellington, the 1910 meeting of ministers and laymen in Dunedin...etc

But if you do look through the archives it certainly won't be a quick process finding a photo, as you seem to need.

Regards
