Covid may have thwarted Ash and Simon’s Fijian wedding plans but being able to celebrate with even more of their family and friends on home soil in Invercargill was surely a good Plan B. Plus, Fiji makes for a great honeymoon destination when travel opens up again! The day was relaxed, fun, and all about […]

The titles of my blogs are always my couple’s names but I really tossed up the idea of putting Lottie’s name in there too. Cassie and Nathan just adore their wee princess – she is the most loved and celebrated wee lady, and the way she looks at her parents is pure adoration. More and […]

Caitlin and JB got a stunning sunny Southland day for their celebrations at The Hideaway 201. You couldn’t ask for better weather in March. These two were my last wedding before the Covid-19 lockdown, and what a way to finish the season. He’s a shearer from Ireland, and she’s a Kiwi rousie. Mr and Mrs […]

It was a case of “go big or go home”, and from the first chat we had about Bronwyn and Bryan’s wedding, I knew this was going to be one heck of a party. When these two wonderful humans were planning their big day, they had to make a choice between a small affair with […]

I spent an evening with the gorgeous Steph at Queens Park in Invercargill to capture the last days of […]

The Newport family all got together for an early Christmas in October, so I headed out to the farm near Gore to capture some family photos for them.

Last month, I was called to Southland Hospital’s maternity ward for a different reason. In the room next to this one, I photographed a […]

When you’re a shearer, you only get the rainy days off work. Caitlin and JB split their time working in woolsheds between Southland and Western Australia. These two are due to fly out in a few weeks, and won’t be back for months, so we had to make the most of a rainy day off […]

It’s a rare but exciting day when the stars align like this. I wasn’t expecting that to be the case with Alice’s maternity shoot – the sky was black and I had my wipers flying across my windscreen as I drove to meet her. The drive from Riverton towards Tuatapere is stunning and the coastline is rugged. I […]
