Caroline & Matthew’s Whangarei Wedding02.27.12

I recently had the pleasure of photographing the marriage of this romantic Australian couple. Rather than a big wedding, they decided to elope and marry here in New Zealand at the ‘Cliff House’ on Northland’s beautiful Taiharuru peninsula. It’s the smallest wedding I have ever photographed, just the two of them, in fact I was asked to be one of the witnesses!

Hi Kerri,

The photos arrived today and we love them! Thank you so much, you did a fantastic job. We loved every minute of our day and were happy to have you there as part of it. Our two weeks in NZ was amazing, it is such a beautiful country, we will definitely be back one day soon!

Can’t wait to show everyone the amazing photos at our party in a few weeks time!

Kind regards,
Caroline and Matt

Thanks you two…….. it was absolutely my pleasure! Enjoy your party and come back soon.

Sarah & Andrew’s Bay of Islands Wedding02.07.12

I asked Sarah to tell us a little bit about her and Andrew’s wedding in the beautiful Bay of Islands.

Where was it? At the Waimate North Church followed by the Reception at The Copthorne Hotel, Bay Of Islands.
Theme or style: Our colour theme was white, gold and orange, traditional and romantic
Brides Dress: Kate Dowman, also the pearls and flower in my hair. The flowers: White Lillies and Orange Roses – by my mother
Hair: Haana Baker, KeriKeri Makeup: Rebecca Young – Essentially Young Beauty Therapy, Auckland
Groom/Groomsmen: Frank Casey Suit Hire The Cake: Chocolate Mudcake and Fruitcake for top layer – by a family friend Invitations & Stationery: Graffic Affair Food & Drink: Copthorne Hotel, Soho Wines The Honeymoon: Los Cabos , Mexico

“The whole day was amazing but if I had to pick one moment it would be heading out on the boat and relaxing with our wedding party as a newly married couple. The Bay of Islands scenery was stunning.”

“ There are too many photos to choose just one favourite. But we love the black and white shots at the waterfall, the groups shots on the boat and the photos with our dog Baxter are very special!”
