Ashleigh and Tyler ending my wedding season with a BANG!

What a whirlwind week we’ve had where the New Zealand way of life was turned upside down. From the daily updates from government around social distancing, through to the end announcement of the whole country going into lockdown for a minimum of 4 weeks. My season ended last weekend with my remaining 12 weddings to the end of June being forced to postpone.

Before the final nail in the coffin, I shot one last wedding last weekend to end my season. And what a wedding it was. Ashleigh and Tyler, had the tough tasks of replanning huge aspects of the day with the first wave of government announcements, from guests having to pull out to having to cull the reception by 50 people the day before the wedding.

We got there in the end, and shit it was good for the soul. Thank you Ashleigh and Tyler, and thank you to all my awesome couples, vendors and creatives I’ve worked with this season.

For now, here are a few snaps from my last wedding for the season - everyone stay safe and look after your loved ones and we’ll be better for it in 4 weeks time.

Hamish and Kate featured over on Wild Hearts

A ceremony setting amongst the rolling hills and long stoney river beds of Arild Farm, Mangaweka. Perth based Kate + Hamish were joined by their family and friends for a big celebration in this stunning rural setting on a family farm in New Zealand. 

Styled beautifully by Alice from Flock Events with soft textures and rustic earthy tones.

We are pretty chilled out people, so we opted for a relaxed cocktail style wedding that focused on three main things that we love most in life – great food, great tunes and great booze.” said Kate.

Leigh and Josie wedding at Caccia Birch House, florals, colour and a tonne of style

I don’t often get to do many weddings in Palmy so to be able to go back to back weekends in my hometown is a bloody dream scenario. This past weekend I got to hang with Josie and Leigh. I worked with Leigh before making this photog gig my full time vocation and it was great being able to hang with some familar faces and increase the banter levels by a couple of notches.

These guys did an amazing from designing and creating their own wedding stationery and signage. Their Maid of honor and groomsmen did the florals and videography and and the weather did its part too and gave us the perfect weather.

Checkout all the pinterest worthy styling from these two lovebirds!
