Most people think being “good at photos” is about knowing what to do. It’s not.

It’s about how it feels when you’re in the moment.

The photos you love most won’t be the perfectly posed ones - they’ll be the ones where you forgot I was even there 🫶

He told me she doesn’t love being the centre of attention.

So instead of anything big or crowded…
we planned something just for them.

A quiet moment, high above it all.
Just the two of them, surrounded by mountains -
with nothing else to think about but each other.

No pressure.
No audience.
Just space to be fully present in it.

Because the most meaningful proposals aren’t just about how they look…

They’re about how they feel ✨

Marijanna and Teera’s Queenstown elopement ✨

One of those days that just felt easy in the best way - quiet moments, big views, and a whole lot of love.

I managed to fit in a couple of pretty special elopements, a portrait session, and a few proposals before heading away, and this was one I wanted to share a little bit more of.

Now I’m one week into Bali life, with a little more time to slow down, reflect, and soak it all in before I’m back in Queenstown next week.

I’m still here behind the scenes - answering emails, taking bookings, and (for once) actually up to date with editing 🤭

Keep an eye on my stories if you’re interested in Bali holiday spam ❤️

If you’ve been thinking about your own Queenstown elopement, now’s a pretty good time to start the conversation ♡

What happens when you have your bridal portraits before the wedding day?

Just ask Kurt & Nadia. 🤍

No rushing between events. No pressure to stick to a tight timeline. Just the two of them, incredible scenery, and plenty of time to create beautiful portraits without having to watch the clock.

By choosing to do their bridal session ahead of the wedding, they get the best of both worlds - stunning images and the freedom to spend their wedding day fully present with the people they love most.

More time celebrating. Less time worrying about the schedule. A win-win if you ask me. ✨

Ever wondered how a beautiful intimate elopement next to the lake in Queenstown might look and feel?

Pretty amazing if it’s anything like Marijanna and Teera’s beautiful day 🥰❤️😍

Honestly sometimes all the stars align, best light, best location, best people… magic moments ✨

Love stories don’t always follow a linear path. Sometimes they arrive unexpectedly, at just the right time, reminding us that life unfolds exactly as it’s meant to. ✨

Suzie and Rob’s beautiful couple session at Kelvin Heights was full of joy, laughter, and the kind of love that feels effortless when two amazing people find their person.

A quiet kind of magic out at Moke Lake ✨

Golden light, mountain air, the gentlest soul of a horse, and two people counting down the weeks until they meet their precious baby.

There’s something so special about maternity sessions that let you simply be. No rush, no pressure, just documenting this season exactly as it felt

These are the moments that feel slow in the very best way 🤍

You don’t need to know what to do - I’ll guide you through everything 🤍

Most of my clients tell me before we start:
“I have no idea how to pose”
“I’m going to be so awkward”

And that’s completely normal.

You’re not expected to know how to stand, where to look, or what to do with your hands.

That’s my job.

I’ll guide you in a way that feels natural, relaxed, and easy - so you can just focus on being in the moment.

And I promise… within minutes, it won’t feel awkward anymore ✨

Thanks so much for the bts of me in my happy place 🥰
