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.

Danielle and Sam had a beautiful Queenstown Wedding planned by
Mint events. They live in London and have busy jobs as art directors so I had my work cut out….
The ceremony was at The Chapel at Stoneridge Estate. We did a few shots on the grounds of Stoneridge, before flying with Over the Top for heli shots. The wind was pretty strong and being September we did a very quick shoot before it got to cold and then headed back via helicopter to The Winehouse in Gibbston valley for the reception. As always with the Mint Weddings the day ran perfectly and included a couple of entertainment surprises.

Naomi and Rob manage luxury beach accommodation in Australia but wanted something different for their own wedding. They used Mint Events wedding planning to make sure everything went smoothly on the day. We had a very rainy morning so when I left Wanaka so I I packed all my umbrellas!! Ceremony was at 3pm in the Chapel at Stoneridge Estate and about 10 minutes earlier, the rain stopped and the sun came out just in time for location shots at Stoneridge. When we arrived at the Wine House for the reception it was a warm and nice evening for the guests to enjoy some croquette and mingling before dinner.

When I met Andrea the first time she and Tim were living in Los Angeles were visiting family here in NZ. Last year they decided to move back to New Zealand.
They had a very hot summer day and we did a quick location shoot at Chard Farm, trying to stay away from the harsh sun and heat before the ceremony. I love the colours of the building at Chard Farm.
The ceremony was held in the secret garden at the Wine House followed by a reception in the onsite Marquee.

I met Smita and Glen over a year before the wedding and was been looking forward to since. The wedding was planned by Mint Events and was very colourful with Smita’s indian heritage. We did the photo shoot before the ceremony on various locations around Lake Hayes and Arrowtown before we headed out to The Winehouse & Kitchen. The early ceremony had a rock star feeling when Smita walked in to AC/DC!!
