This lovely couple had two weddings, one here in NZ and one in the UK, where Holly is originally from. The one in NZ was held at Boomrock, and it was a small and intimate ceremony and celebration. Jared and Holly’s family and friends enjoyed a bit of golf, clay bird shooting, and the spectacular view that Boomrock offers, despite it being a rainy Monday.

There were two things that made their day truly special and unique: Jared and Holly’s gorgeous one-eyed rescue dog, Gunner, was with them all throughout the day, and their wedding rings were passed around all the guests during the ceremony.

Jared and Holly, I wish you all the very best for your UK celebrations, and for your life together!

It’s been a while since my last blog post, and so much has happened since then. I’ve started the wedding season with a beautiful winter wedding, for a lovely couple who flew from the UK to get hitched here in Wellington. Jasmine and Matthew, and their very friendly bridal party, had a wonderfully happy time despite the cold and windy weather. After their beautiful ceremony, which was given by a Salvation Army celebrant – whose wedding I happened to photograph in Wanganui a few years back – we all went to The Library Bar for more fun moments, helped along by some delicious cocktails. What a cool place to have your wedding reception! And, that fantastic wedding cake was designed and baked by Matthew’s aunt and brought from the South Island on the ferry.

Many thanks to Deanna Walker who was my second photographer on the day!

Donna and Steve were married at Sudbury, which is set amongst farmland on the Kapiti Coast, a short drive north of Wellington. Donna and her bridesmaids got ready in the cute little cottage on the property. After their Sudbury wedding ceremony, Donna and Steve made the most of the evening light for their bridal party images.

I also had the great pleasure of photographing this lovely couple’s engagement session a few weeks earlier, also on the Kapiti Coast, but down on the beach.

Thanks very much to Kim Hunter, who was my second photographer for the day.

Lisa and Dave flew in from England for their autumn Sudbury wedding, surrounded by family and friends from New Zealand and overseas.

Lisa and her bridesmaids got ready in a house close to the seaside before heading to Sudbury, which is on the Kapiti Coast, just north of Wellington. This beautiful couple didn’t let the chilly weather get in the way of having a fabulous time, and we took the bridal party images among Sudbury’s horse paddocks and farmland.

Lisa and Dave – I wish you all the very best for your life together!

Thanks very much to Kim Hunter, who was my second photographer for the day.

Nathan and Rachael were married down on the Wellington waterfront, at Foxglove’s Queens Wharf Ballroom. After their Foxglove wedding, they had their bridal party images taken at the Botanic Garden and outside the old Parliamentary Library. And they didn’t let a little bit of typical autumn Wellington rain get in the way of them having a wonderful time!

Nathan and Rachael, I wish you all the very best for your life together.

I was also fortunate enough to have the chance to take the engagement images of this lovely couple a few months earlier.

Daniel and Jennifer had a wedding day full of all their wishes. From the smallest details, to the biggest one – picking a venue that could provide an unforgettable entrance to their reception. Which is why this lovely couple had a Southward Car Museum wedding! The museum is just out of Wellington, in Otaihanga on the Kapiti Coast.

Jennifer applied all her natural talents as a choreographer, stylist and dancer to the concept, design and details of their wedding. And we also need to give credit to Daniel for his fantastic performance on the dance floor. As a tea lover, Jennifer had the fantastic idea of welcoming the guests with a selection of her favourite teas. I was lucky enough to try one of them – absolutely delicious. Their entrance to the reception was decorated beautifully with trees and lights.

What a day they had! I wish them all the very best for their future as husband and wife.

Many thanks to my second photographer, Jaymee Morrison, for her amazing pics and all the help she provided me on the day.

Last year, I was fortunate enough to take Daniel and Jennifer’s engagement images, also out on the Kapiti Coast.

Brooke and James live on a sheep farm in South Canterbury, and came up to Wellington for their wedding at Boomrock, just outside the city in the lovely Ohariu Valley. Although the day of their Boomrock wedding started off a bit misty – it was raining all day in Wellington city! – the sun soon came out, and shone down on this happy couple, and their family and friends.

All the very best to Brooke and James for their life together!

You can find out more about this stunning Wellington wedding venue on my weddings at Boomrock page.

This was such a cool and windy Ohariu Farm wedding! Ohariu Farm is a great wedding venue located in the rolling fields of the Ohariu Valley, just a few minutes drive from Wellington City.

Kathryn and Zach’s “first look” was definitely a lot of fun for them, and for the rest of us who witnessed that very special moment. Kathryn, Zach, and their whole bridal party, braved the strong Wellington winds to get some photos taken on top of the Ohariu Farm hills. Kathryn and Zach, I wish you all the best for a long and happy life together!

What a beautiful day it was for Alanah and Matt’s Sudbury wedding, on Wellington’s Kapiti Coast. I’d already had the pleasure of taking photos of this lovely couple at their engagement session last year.

Alanah and her bridesmaids got ready in Sudbury’s gorgeous little cottage, overlooking horse paddocks and the nearby foothills, whereas the boys got ready elsewhere on the Kapiti Coast. The happy couple’s wedding ceremony was held outside in the hot afternoon sun, and they headed off with the bridal party for photos among the trees and around Sudbury’s hay barn.

Their reception was held in Sudbury’s stables, and Alanah and Matt had their first dance in the golden light of the evening sunset, before their family and friends hit the dance floor too!

Many thanks to my second photographer for the day, Jaymee Morrison.

Huge congrats to the newlyweds! Jono and Ali got married at the historic Burnside church, which is south of Martinborough in the lovely Wairarapa. They had their reception close by at the gorgeous Lacewood Estate. Such a beautiful couple with amazing families! Jono and Ali, it was a pleasure photographing your very special Lacewood wedding.

Jono and Ali had a large bridal party of family and friends, which made the day a lot of fun. The day was extremely hot, and we could see thunderstorms circling the Wairarapa, but fortunately they stayed away from Lacewood!
