Masterton Wedding Photographer - Brianna & Matty A chilled New Year's Eve wedding was in order for Brianna & Matty. The idea was to have a big party with their friends and family, which happened to have a wedding ceremony for a short time. I think it's fair to say that this wedding was all of that and more, super relaxed and super fun!
Luna Estate Blue Rock Wedding - Katrina & Sam Autumn is a magical time of year, and it was no exception on Sam and Katrina's wedding day at Luna Estate, Blue Rock Vineyard. The stunning vineyard provided a picturesque backdrop for their special day, as family and friends gathered to celebrate their love. Katrina spoke about how excited she was for this day, as it was all about them as a family. She expressed her hope that the day would be fun with a happy and relaxed atmosphere. Sam and Katrina first met at a party of a mutual friend when Katrina was 17 and Sam was 19. They have been together ever since and have not spent longer than two weeks apart. Despite the distance between them, with Sam visiting Katrina weekly in Wellington while she was at dance school, they knew they were meant to be together. [...]
Rose & Smith Wedding Photography - Sarah & Kevin Photography by Jo Moore Photographer Kevin and Sarah's wedding at Rose and Smith in Tauherenikau, New Zealand was a stunning celebration of love, filled with meaningful moments and personal touches. The couple had planned every detail of their big day, from the gorgeous floral arrangements to the delicious menu. Unfortunately, their original photographer was unable to attend the wedding, so just a few weeks before the big day I was asked to photograph their day for them. However, just when I thought everything was sorted, I received some bad news - I had been at an exposure event for COVID-19 and could no longer attend the wedding. This news was understandably stressful for the couple, who had already faced several challenges in finding a photographer who could capture their special day. Despite the initial shock and disappointment, I knew how [...]
Jason & Jacinta - Martinborough Engagement Photography I was lucky enough to be invited along to a surprise proposal recently, with the idea of documenting the moment and the excitement after. Poppies was the perfect location, with perfect weather for photography. What a gorgeous afternoon, as such a privilege to be able to photograph you guys! Congratulations and all the very best!
Martinborough Wedding Photographer - Stephen & Ana With just 30 guests and family overseas, these guys made the most of their small and intimate wedding. I always love a small, casual wedding. You really cant go wrong.
Martinborough Wedding - Mallory & Anton Autumn weddings - I reckon its one the best times for a wedding! In terms of photography, you get the best of everything. Daytime shots, sunset images, and its not too late to get some night images too! Plus its not so hot and the light is softer. What's not to love? And what's not to love about this stylish wedding. These guys loved my milkyway images, so trying to get a shot was high on their priority list. Even after letting them know that the only time we could do it was from 7.15-8.15pm - right in the middle of the reception! (just due to milkway visibility and moonrise). So not only did we have a limited time frame, but also had to cross fingers and toes for good, clear weather and no wind! haha, not much to ask when you get [...]
Wairarapa Weddings - Becs and Dan, Martinborough What a fun, relaxed day! A stunning ceremony, full of personal touches, surrounded but friends and family. What more could you ask for? Thanks so much for having me along!
Tarureka Estate Wedding - Andrea & James Andrea and James - what an absolute pleasure it was to photograph your day, and to get your know your fabulous family! The plan for the wedding was to focus on family and friends. Being a second wedding for both of them, and after the year that was 2020 they just wanted a casual, relaxed time that people could enjoy, and guests to be a part of celebrating their love for each other. Their children and grandchild are most important to them - along with their wonderful friends. It was extra special to see the entire bridal party made up of their adult children. Andrea says - "We knew from very early on in our relationship that we had met the person that we wanted to spend the rest of our lives with. James proposed to Andrea in the Wairarapa at a [...]
Featherston Wedding Photographer - Stephen & Sophie A stunning wedding from the summer of 2021. Stephen knew Sophie was the one form the beginning and 7 months later they were engaged. Much like their wedding, the proposal was low key and simple - Sophie was picked up in one of their military vehicles, a 1943 Austin K2 Ambulance and whisked away for a picnic on the farm. The Ambulance later became the venue for signing the register at the wedding. The proposal took place with a view of Featherston Domain (one Tree Hill) during the picnic. The place that they met, was framed in the distance by the trees that they were married under.
Tironui Farm, Martinborough Wedding Photography - Jo & Sophie To say that I enjoyed photographing this wedding was an understatement. These two girls are just so awesome to be around - they instantly felt like friends. They wanted their wedding be relaxed and the most important thing was that all their guests had a good time - a fun day hanging out with all the people who are special to them Anyway, I could go on but I will let the pictures do the talking.
