Naomi and Kai came all the way from London to get married here in Wanaka and all guest came from various parts of the world to join them. The reception was at Glendhu bay and the reception at Edgewater Resort in Wanaka. We did some quick shots after the ceremony at the Glendhu before the helicopter picked us up for some mountain shots.
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. The flowers were done by Sarah from the Flowerrroom.
Photographers from over 90 countries entered this years prestigious International Loupe Awards , so It felt great to take home 7 Awards! Last year I got a Loupe award for a heli wedding in Queenstown and i’m proud to say that I scored high with my weddings again, but this year I also won awards for my commercial work. Here are two of my favorites. The first commercial/fashion award is of local model Charlotte Gardiner with makeup by the very talented Gena Bagley. The Second shot “The running girl” was for a worldwide campaign for a client of ad agency Interbrand. Feels good to get recognition for all the hard work and big thanks to all my clients – weddings couples and corporates!
Claire and Callum had never been to Queenstown before they arrived for their wedding. They had just seen images from here and thought it was a great place to get married and go snowboarding. The ceremony was held in the Queenstown Gardens and we did the location shots by the lake.
Louise & Oliver are originally from the UK but live in Christchurch. They decide to elope to Wanaka for their Wedding at beautiful River Run Lodge. We had some fun, shooting around the lodge before heading down to the lakefront for some more photos before going back to River Run for dinner.
