Petelo and Lata's wedding was as beautiful as I imagined it would be!  The wedding was held at Furneaux Lodge, and again - the day was perfect and sunny.  This is going to another bumper blog post, it was just insanely difficult to cut the photos down to just a preview! 

Loving the shoes!

Petelo seemed excited about his wedding day.

Lata looked so gorgeous on her father's arm.

Seriously - these guys are so cute together!

The entire wedding - in the beautiful surroundings of the Marlborough Sounds.  This place is so remote, you can't even drive there!  You either boat or fly, very cool.

These girls laughed all day!

After so many comments in the speeches at the reception - I think your friends and family would like you to fill that little swing between you :)

One of the highlights of my day was this band - Juicy Fruit from Wellington.  These guys are incredibly talented, and an absolute joy to listen to!  It's a shame that photos don't contain sound, cause everyone should hear these guys!

First dance - and Lata hasn't stopped glowing all day!

Being a white girl, I really didn't know much about the Siva Samoa - it was gorgeous!  I wanted to get up there and join them, but how ridiculous would I have looked?  :)

We spotted these clouds right before leaving, and just had to drag them out briefly to capture a couple of parting shots.

I think this may be my favourite shot of the day, although it's awfully hard to choose...

Petelo and Lata - thank you so much for letting us join you in your day.  It was so full of fun, love and a bunch of beautiful people!  We wish you all the very best for the future!

We have the honour of being able to photograph Petelo and Lata's wedding this Friday.  A seriously gorgeous couple - I can't WAIT to see Lata as a bride!

The wedding will have a beach theme, so it seemed fitting to have the engagement shoot at a beach as well.

The water is actually pretty cold....

They're so cute together, the camera just loves them!

We'll see you in a couple of days guys - I can't wait, the weather is supposed to be great and I just know it's going to be a beautiful wedding!

Saturday was hot and sunny, and the perfect day for a summer wedding!  We had a great time sharing Rhys and PJ's big day, as did their attendants and guests!

I loved the lace on PJ's dress.

Cool, calm, and looking beautiful - before she even got into her dress!

Mum gets the finishing touches put on her hair.

Walking down the aisle - could Rhys possibly look any happier to see his bride?  I think not!

I love this shot of Rhys's parents, sharing the moment of their son's wedding.

Back in the limo, and MARRIED!

We headed off to Pollard Park were there was some welcome relief from the sun under the trees.

And now that the pressure had come off - the playful side came out!

We always say that too much attention is paid to the head part of the body - this sort of shot always works if you're having a bad hair day too!

Three sisters.

The girls have a quick pat of Bridget's rather pregnant belly!

And back at the reception...

There was plenty of fun to be had, lots of singing - and bubbles!

Thanks for inviting us into your day guys - can't wait to show you the rest :)

I'm SO excited to be photographing Rhys and PJ's wedding this Saturday!  They are so much fun and so easy going, I just know the day is going to be an absolute blast!

First of all we went to Pollard Park and hung out there for a bit.  These guys are constantly joking and having a great time together, it's not a difficult task to get them to smile.  In fact, I don't think I asked them to smile once?

Then we headed off to Harling Park, where there were more opportunities for some great photos.

This is my favourite for of the day!  I reckon it would look cool on a canvas.

I can't wait till Saturday guys - we'll see you soon!

We were lucky enough to be able to shoot another wedding at Old St Mary's Convent on Saturday.  This is absolutely the place to get ready for your wedding, everything about it is just beautiful!

Jodie's dress was so fantastic, I wanted to try it on myself!  That would probably not have been a popular move, so I just took pictures of it instead.

Jodie absolutely glowed - I think the only time she stopped smiling was when she would tear up at the emotion of the occasion.

It was another 'cute kid' wedding, I could have taken pictures of these girls all day long, they were sooooo cute!

I love the emotion in all of the faces in this shot.

Meanwhile, down at the church, Michael's getting all ready for his bride to arrive.

Issy is just the cutest little thing, and everytime I had the camera anywhere near her she'd run to me and want her photo taken.

Walking down the aisle is serious business....

Jodie was well and truly ready to go see her groom!

Who was also well and truly ready to see her.

Don't they make a gorgeous couple?

Jodie and Michael are such a lovely and friendly couple.  Congratulations guys, I wish you guys all the very best for the future!  Looking forward to catching up again before you head back up to Auckland, to show you the rest of the pictures.

Yesterday Petra and Linton got married.  But this wasn't just any wedding, it was intimate, simple and completely beautiful.  It was held at the lighthouse at Cape Campbell. 

Petra looked absolutely stunning, I knew she would!

This was the entire wedding, including bridal party and guests.  Thankfully the weather was perfect, not too hot or cold - however it was rather windy!

After the ceremony we decided to take a walk up to the lighthouse.  I called out to Petra to let her veil go, it would look great.  And it did look great, for about 3 seconds, and then it took off!  Thankfully Linton saved the day and retrieved it for her. 

It was insanely windy at the lighthouse, so we really didn't stay up there for very long! 

There is this really great little shack, and it's windswept and leaning just like everything else along the beach!

Back at the farm, we spent a little time hanging out with their horses.  Note the ribbons around their necks!

And a few shots up on the hill where they're building a house.  What an amazing spot it is!

Thanks so much for allowing us to capture your beautiful day Petra and Linton! 

We've finally had the wedding I have been waiting for all year, my sister's boy Daniel married the lovely and ever-sweet Bailey.  It was our honour to capture the moment of their day for them.  It was such a beautiful day, I can already tell it's going to be difficult to keep the number of images here down!

The wedding was held at the beautiful Monaco Resort in Stoke.  I had never been there before as we don't usually photograph in Nelson. We were busily looking for the place when we passed a beauitful looking little villiage - "Wow, that would be a cool spot for photos!" I exclaimed as we drove right past it....  So I was rather thrilled to find later that it was in fact the very place we were searching for.  Score!

Looking out the window, Bailey could see Daniel waiting for her.

Dad's proud look at his girl about to be married.

Mum and sister, perhaps a little nervous at this stage!

Last minute lipstick touchup....

A moment with Dad....

And we're off! 

Andrew, Daniel's Dad, took the ceremony.

This has got to be one of my favourite shots of the day - Mum's approval.

Then we headed down to Tahuna beach, and while the boys threw a rugby ball around - the girls and I had some fun.

The one thing Bailey wanted on her wedding day was to walk down the beach barefooted.  Done!

Back at Monaco, and an opportunity for a couple more photos. 

I love this shot of Andy and Sas. 

I'm adding this shot in here because, for once, I can legitimately put myself in a family photo!  Woohoo!  (on the right)

First dance.  Cute!

And then it was time for some serious 'getting down'!

There are so many more great shots, but this gives y'all a pretty good idea of how things went!  It was a fantastic day to be part of!
