Wanaka wedding photographer

 

Hey there! You've probably come across this page after searching for a Wanaka wedding photographer. The good news is, you've found the right place. Welcome!

I'm Andy, a wedding photographer based in Lake Wanaka, New Zealand. Originally a country lad from the mountains of North Canterbury, I've been photographing weddings since 2008 and absolutely love my job. You’ll find my photography approach hugely relaxed and easily integrated into the plans of your day. It’s about you, and you spending time with your guests and enjoying what a wedding should be all about. Rather than worrying about how you’re going to be posed or how many hours you’re going to be away from your guests, I lean more about telling your story about you and your guests in an honest way, that resonates with you, from the heart-racing walk down the aisle to all of the fun, free-flowing moments in between.

Having familiarity with shooting weddings in the Wanaka region means I can streamline a lot of the required pre-scouting before your shoot and have a good understanding of the local weather systems, sun position and timing, location access, and many other factors that any good photographer should know before embarking on your wedding day. In saying this, along with locations that I know will work, I always look to seek out a new location to bring a set of unique images to the table for you.


Wanaka wedding photography by Andy Brown

Wanaka has been home for us since 2015 and feel right at home in the surrounds of what the South Island of New Zealand has to offer. My style of photography is ever-evolving very slightly, doing my best to improve with every shoot, even all of these years later! I’m best known for a mixture of fine art, landscape-driven images, and those real, story-telling moments I described above. No two weddings are the same and that’s exactly how it should be.

If you feel this is the type of photography you are looking for, then follow the button below to view some of my wedding stories from start to finish, along with some recommendations for local venues, celebrants and wedding vendors who I’ve had the pleasure of working with in the past. There’s even guide for planning the perfect wedding photos — I'd love to learn more about your plans and see if there's a way I can be part of your day.

Cheers,
Andy
