Ester and Andre had an amazing Destination Wedding in Queenstown. The morning started out with a traditional Chinese Tea Ceremony at The Gamekeepers Lodge and Ester wore a beautiful pink dress for it. Then back to Arrowtown to redo hair and make-up and get in to the wedding dress for their ceremony at Stoneridge Estate. We did some location shots with the blossoms at Stoneridge before heading to the airport to fly with Heli line to The Ledge for some classic Queenstown mountain shots.

Rebecca and Jeremy got married at Mt Soho. Rebecca arrived in style by helicopter for the ceremony and the celebrant, Phillipa Cook did a great job as usual. After the ceremony and a quick mix and mingle the helicopter took us up to The Remarkables for mountain shots. It always amazing up there but starting to get a bit cold later on in the season so we got the photos we needed and headed back down for the reception catered by the excellent, In to Food.

Stunning Queenstown Wedding

Janelle and Dan had a perfectly planned wedding. I started the day shooting hair and makeup at Crew Haircutters, before heading over to the boys.

The ceremony was at St Patrick’s Catholic Church in Arrowtown. After the ceremony and time for congratulations, we did some bridal party shots around the church and Lake Hayes before heading out to Over the Top for heli shots up on The Ledge. We had a great time up there enjoying the views and when we were finished we flew straight to the Winehouse and Kitchen for the reception.

The Wedding was planned by Mint Events and as usual the attention to detail and timings were perfect.

A small and intimate wedding in Queenstown for Kerryanne and Martin. We spent the morning at a B&B in Arrowtown/Lake Hayes before heading over to Stoneridge for the ceremony in the chapel. We did all location shots around Stoneridge before heading up to the reception. A beautiful day for a great couple:)

Rippon Vineyard Wedding

Fredrik — Tue, 26 Apr 2011 22:14:51 +0000

I first met Barbara and Richard in a cafe in London together with Laura from Mint Events.

The ceremony was at St Pauls church, Arrowtown, after which guests were transported to Rippon Vineyard, Wanaka. Barbara and Richard had an old school VW combi waiting outside the church to take us to Lake Hayes where Over the Top helicopters collected us for heli shots on route to Rippon Vineyard. The rain was hanging in the air and we had to find a good spot below the clouds, away from the worst rain for the location shoot before heading over the ranges to Wanaka. We did some more shots around the vineyard with the bridal party. The bridesmaids wore bright yellow Lanvin designs which made them stand out in the rainy weather.

The reception started with a champagne tower and lots of excellent videos and speeches. Its been great to see the venue take shape and its such an asset for weddings in Wanaka. For me it was great to be the photographer for the first wedding in the new building!

A great wedding that was planned by Mint Events Wedding planning

I spent the morning with Kirsty getting ready at one of the villas at Millbrook and Hamish playing some golf at his parents house before heading in Queenstown for the ceremony. We did the location shots on the way back to Arrowtown and around Millbrook.

Romantic Arrowtown wedding at Mt Soho

Fredrik — Wed, 15 Dec 2010 22:24:51 +0000

I had been looking forward to Crystal’s Wedding for a long time, the photography was a really important part of the wedding for them . They did extensive research on photographers, reading wedding forums, talking to wedding suppliers. Combined with me belonging to NZIPP and AIPA and being highly awarded for my photography made the choice easy.

The morning started at Crew Haircutters in Queenstown shooting make up shots and the rain was pouring down with no stopping in sight. I headed over to Aspen Grove to spend some time with the boys before meeting up with the girls again at Panorama Terrace to shoot the details and getting ready.

The ceremony and reception was at Mt Soho in Arrowtown and that is definitely one of the best venues to be at, if you have rain on your wedding day! The ceremony was held inside but the rain stopped straight after, so we managed to do all the location shots and outside with perfect light.

I stayed for the reception to shoot the cake cutting, speeches and the first dance.
