Elope in the mountains by
Helicopter
“Andy and Lisa did an absolutely amazing job not only with our wedding photos but co-ordinating our entire elopement. They made the experience completely stress free and enjoyable every step of the way. As our day was approaching, so was a massive storm and they were able to reschedule everything at the last minute to make sure we had a beautiful day. The photos Andy took are absolutely breathtaking! He really captured our day and our authentic selves better than I could have imagined. We booked our entire elopement package through him and every one of his vendors from hair and makeup to flowers to celebrant were all so amazing! 100% would recommend!”

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Andy. He went above and beyond to capture absolutely stunning photos and video of our elopement. He also helped us find the perfect ceremony location overlooking lake Wanaka. The photos are beyond anything we could’ve imagined. He’s a wonderful guy and we were lucky to have him as part of our day.”

elopement hybrid photo & video
Our hybrid photo & video upgrade is for couples who want photography as priority, and want a simple, yet slick film of their elopement. Adding motion as a deliverable has been really well received from past couples. I'll shoot just like a photographer, except I'll be switching over to video as I go and capturing snippets of footage from my same camera, and also my drone. Please note I don’t currently offer audio of vows, just a modern edit to licensed music.
