I am not sure if the presence of a beautiful creature like Archie the pup, who by the way stole the camera the entire day with his cuteness overload and puppy eyes, or being under the trees made this wedding so effortlessly beautiful, relaxed, and super fun. But the fact is, and I have proof, Sophie and Kush had the time of their lives, and I got the chance to capture it all!

Nasreen and Mack looked like models straight out from a magazine, and as their Auckland Wedding Photographer, I was more than excited to capture each moment of this day. It was showtime straight from the get go (she was stunning enough to silence crowd even without make up :P). At the unforgettable first look in the hotel lobby at Cordis Auckland. Mack just couldn't stop smiling the whole way through as he turned to see her bride for the first time. Like a child grinning under the Christmas tree :P

The central business district of Auckland has many hidden gems. One of them is the beautiful neo-gothic church of St. Matthews in the City; this building features incredible architecture. It was the location Mike and Kelly chose to celebrate their traditional ceremony. The magnificent high ceilings and stained glass were the backdrops of this Auckland church wedding.

Weddings reflect a couple's personality, and when it comes to Elmie and Brandon, and this wedding was off the hooks! Energetic, fun, and meaningful. There was an abundance of love, the tears, and the smiles, which I'm so glad I got to be there to capture. As a Auckland Wedding Photographer it's always a treat when you get asked to shoot at places like The Waterlily Garden!

Finally! It’s time for that famous Hobbiton Tour!!! Being a massive Lord of the Ring fan myself, I simply couldn’t contain my excitement! After visiting a couple of hobbit houses, Jack even decided to jump the same fence Bilbo did when he went on his adventure! Continuing with our Hobbiton Tour we end up at Bilbo’s house atop the hills! This is definitely THE most epic way to end a couples shoot.

When you ask me if I’d ever shot a fairy tale wedding before, I would choose Bryony and Brandon's wedding for sure. Their celebration happened at Willowbrook Park, and it was meaningful, elegant, and an absolute dream come true. As an Auckland Wedding Photographer, one of my favorite places to visit is this dreamy location.
