Georgie & David / Canterbury High Country Wedding
Growing up in the country. Something I’ll always be grateful for. Georgie & David’s Canterbury high country wedding took me right back there. Turn off into the Rakaia Gorge, then keep driving until you think you’ve gone too far… then drive a little further. These two come are probably the most down to earth couple I’ve met so far, and not afraid to get their hands dirty (or the wedding dress!) Held at their family home, there was everything we needed right at our fingertips; a decent 4WD track to some spectacular views over the Southern Alps, a working woodshed converted into a cosy reception area, and a well supplied whisky bar. Thanks to Rino Sadha for shooting with me on this one.
Abby & David / Rosemount Estate Wedding
Shortly after moving down to Central Otago, Abby & David’s Rosemount Estate wedding lured me back. Kiwis residing in the Netherlands, it was a warm welcome and gathering with family and friends back home — served with a stunning summer’s day. Their wedding was held out at Rosemount Estate, with photos taking place on their family property. Somewhere with meaning and a couple with a beautiful connection. Enjoy…
Mackenzie & Chris / Sunshine Coast Wedding
Having the opportunity to head over to Australia for Mackenzie & Chris’ Sunshine Coast wedding was an amazing experience. I had an introduction to some amazing families uniting from the UK and Australia, some awesome wedding vendors and not to mention the incredible, down to earth couple themselves. Held at the beautiful rustic setting of Yandina Station, we had a blast venturing about the venue and stunning surrounds, with Queensland’s super early sunset started the party well in advance. Here’s a snippet of their wedding story…
Anne & Jono / Cossars Wineshed Wedding
Summertime. It’s the dream to have your wedding on a beautiful warm day. Anne & Jono struck it perfect for the Cossars Wineshed wedding. Kicking off with a heated round of golf with the boys then to the relaxed vibes of the girls being pampered, we eventually made our way out to Cossars Wineshed in Tai Tapu for the rest of the day. Jono surprised Anne with a set of giant helium balloons which became a feature of many of the photos afterwards, including (of course) accidentally losing one. Finishing off an awesome day, festivities went late into the mild evening — an absolute blast.
