Izzy & Sarah 11.02.2012

This wedding might look a little bit familiar to some. Remember this wedding? Yesterday we were lucky enough to revisit the same spot where Sam & Daya got married over a year ago – this time to photograph Daya’s brother Izzy’s wedding. The family property in Otaki is basically the perfect spot to hold the ultimate Kiwi backyard wedding, and Izzy & Sarah had made it even better by getting Lizz from Cut the Mustard to add some absolutely gorgeous details. Even though it threatened to rain, in the end the Wellington weather kicked in to make it a beautiful day for a celebration. These two made for some amazing pictures, and Sarah is indeed so gorgeous that, as her new husband put it, she puts the fairy in fairy lights! Thanks so much to the whole family for having us back – we had an awesome time!

Rachel & Brendan: 14.01.12

Just 24 hours before their wedding, Rachel & Brendan made the call to abandon the idea of an outside marquee wedding in favour of this option, a sweet wedding at the Raumati Scout Hall that they managed to create in just one day! As it turned out, the sun was shining and there was only a mild version of the coastal breeze on the day. Perfect conditions for both little ones and adults to enjoy a relaxed Kiwi wedding.

Matt & Lisa

These guys are getting married in just over a month now, and we picked today, wind and all, for a quick engagement session in Upper Hutt. Just saying ‘wind’ is actually underselling a bit, as this was more like photos in a gale. Still, it was very easy shooting – Matt describes the two of them as being good at being ‘naturally silly’ and if that’s what it is then that’s what I like. If you find it easy to be happy and laugh in each other’s company, it makes for fantastic pictures. Speaking of which…

Christine & Dale: 07.01.12

Christine & Dale were married Saturday at Old St Pauls in a gorgeous ceremony, followed by a celebration at Rydges. Their day was full of loads of adorable moments, a lot of which you can see in their photos! I especially love the look on Dale’s face as his gorgeous bride came down the aisle, and how happy they looked during their first dance. Enjoy.

Ros & Matt: 06.01.12

Ros & Matt’s wedding took place this past weekend at St Mary of the Angels and Foxglove in Wellington. I can’t count the number of people during the day who said that every last detail was perfect, and I think that’s fairly self evident in the photos. From the beautiful Demetrios dress to the stunning work Piccadilly had done with the florals, to the little extra touches everywhere at the reception, this wedding was GORGEOUS. As was the bride! Not even an appearance off the bench of the infamous Wellington wind managed to put a dent in proceedings, and we had a wonderful time, enjoying every last minute of happiness on offer. So, the photos!

Sarah & Paul – 10.12.11

This is Sarah & Paul’s wedding at Wallaceville House this weekend. My favourite part is that big long walk up to the aisle for father & daughter – gorgeous. Need I say more!

Sarah & Ben

Sarah & Ben’s wedding was a fun one for us, because we knew them already, so we were extra happy to see them get married at the stunning St Mary of the Angels. Wellington was having an absolutely amazing day that day, because both Parliament and Shelly Bay provided some pretty awesome stuff to work with. As did Sarah & Ben. The two of them are childhood sweethearts who have been together for eight years, which added a really sweet element to the day, because you could tell that everyone there felt like they’d seen this marriage in the making, and couldn’t be happier the big day was finally there. Also, they looked amazing! Congratulations, you two.

Here’s a few of the photos from the day.

Theresa & Shar: Fusion

We’d love you to check out Theresa & Shar’s fusion wedding photography video from last weekend’s wedding. Fusion photography incorporates little pieces of video and is something we’ve been experimenting with lately.

Enjoy!

Theresa & Shar

Theresa & Shar’s civil union this past weekend in the Wairarapa was stunning in every way. For starters, I can’t say enough about Tarureka Estate. Not only is it a beautiful place to get married, with a relaxed vibe and gorgeous locations throughout, but the staff were wonderful. But more than that, Theresa & Shar’s big day was generally lovely from start to finish. Their coordinated details looked amazing together, they never stopped laughing, and every single guest there was so genuinely happy to be there to support them – it was fantastic to see and be a part of.

This season I’m not holding back on lengthy posts with enough pictures to give you a proper look at the day that was, so with that said, here are the photos!

Upper Hutt Engagement Session

Kathryn — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 08:32:50 +0000

It’s not often enough we get to shoot right in our own neck of the woods. This past weekend, we shot Sarah & Paul’s engagement session in Trentham Memorial Park, where we go often to walk our dog. It was a pretty good location, and we’re looking forward to their wedding coming up this December – also in Upper Hutt!
