I love the classic and timeless look of black and white photography, it's especially beautiful for weddings. I include a selection of creative black and white edits in all of my full wedding galleries created and edited with love for clients.

Check out this real wedding. Morgan and Jarred married at Orua Grotto near Hot Water Beach. It is a STUNNING spot to get married , the views are to die for. A beautiful fresh and white classic themed wedding on a perfect blue sky summers day. As you can see by viewing the image gallery the guests partied well into the night!

Holly & Cory tied the knot at Orua Beach House which sits above Hot Water Beach on a windy moody but beautiful day. An awesome venue as in addition to incredible views of the ocean you have the large house to yourselves for 3 days and can invite family and close friends to stay too.

Check out this gallery of styled shoots. I love collaborating with other wedding vendors on the Coromandel to do something a bit different, by stepping outside of our comfort zone and getting super creative.

Elopement weddings are a great way to really embrace what you want and take the stress out of your wedding by keeping it small and intimate. There are so many beautiful places on the Coromandel for elopement weddings. The first one featured is at Sailor's Grave near Tairua after a big storm has passed through. The second wedding was at sunrise and included a walk in the dark with our head torches up the PA at Opito. A magical spot!

Engagement photoshoots are a great for us to get to know each other and for you to feel more comfortable in front of the camera before your wedding day. Lonely Bay is a beautiful location for engagement shoots and small intimate elopement style weddings. I love the big rocky cliffs, bush walk down to the beach, and of course the views out to sea.

Hollis contacted via email before leaving the USA for a New Zealand holiday. His secret plan was to suggest to his girlfriend that they both wear white and get some cool selfies for Instagram on Otama Beach. Once Hollis got down on one knee I stepped out of the bushes and captured the surprise proposal on camera. LOVED this special shoot, to top if off we had the most amazing sunset.
