Anna and Kester were married at Tarureka; a gorgeous location I’ve had the pleasure of photographing at many times. What was different this time, was that they also booked out the Olive Grove up the road, and I was just about beside myself with happiness shooting among overgrown buttercups and daisies in an established olive orchard….

    Beautiful beautiful photographs, my compliments to the photographer… But let’s face it, with that sort of love it was always going to be transparent! You’ve made me blub like a small child Anna- but I guess you knew you would xxxxxxxxxxxcx

  • Becca DilleyJanuary 6, 2014 - 4:51 pm

    Right now it is -20 Fahrenheit where I am, and I think that I will just keep looking back at that first image to warm me up. I love the slightly cool tones and low contrast, but the composition is what really get me. Just lovely. Thanks for a little bit of summer!

Helen and John | The Landing Wedding Photography Masterton

I think willow trees are my favorite. Helen and John married at the Landing in Wairarapa, Masterton, and one of the features on that property are these romantic weeping willows. Helen looked amazing standing in the shade of one, with a slight breeze coming in, it was perfection for photos. So here’s a tiny sneak…
