3/3 The making of a mosaic.

Final sweet moments from two days with U&Z,
forever in awe of the journey documenting these kind of moments takes us.

The level of access,
the invitation into the most intimate moments,
the tears,
the loud hurrays,
the tender hand hold of a grandparent.

Holding these hidden moments closely,
being always reminded that
this is where all the magic is.

2/4 The making of a mosaic.

Day two of U&Z’s nuptials.
This day brought a different kind of magic.

It was larger, surrounded by all their loved ones.
Already married, the energy was a little different.

More still, grounded, confident, reflective, celebratory.
I find multi day weddings to be so special.

We experience incredible highs during these big milestones, but real love lives in the ordinary and seemingly insignificant moments.

I saw U&Z sit together and observe, one eye always looking out for the other, enjoy quiet moments, all the while personally seeing everyone.

The level of hospitality and care shows just what wonderful humans they are.

1/3 The making of a mosaic —

I’ve absolute no words for the wonder and depth that these two are.

And what this day meant.

During their speech, they spoke about how when we come together we’re not perfect puzzle pieces,
or other’s ‘other half’,
or finally become complete once we unite,

but rather,

how we’re all made up of glass pieces we collect from everyone we encounter in our lives.

- our parents, our friends,
our colleagues, acquaintances
and even strangers.

We are archeologists of the self,
collecting pieces of ourselves as we walk through life.

We become mosaics of all that we collect,
and that’s what makes us us.

When we come together,
we only get brighter and more dimensional.

I love this.
- how true is this!

To journey with such deep and thoughtful souls is so beyond me.

And be able to document not just the fleeting, beautiful moments but your souls being fully present in them is everything.

Thank you my dear bright mosaics .syed
- my heart is full.

— Impressions from celebrations and moments, past and recent, from all over the world currently in my camera roll.

The last 6 months have truly been some of the most life altering. Both loud and quiet experiences that have made me rethink, reprioritize, realign into what truly matters.

Two back to back trips between NZ, UK & Europe, insane hours clocked in the editing room, getting uncomfortable with a new rebrand, walking away from spaces that do not align.. growth is the most beautiful chaos.

I’m so excited for this coming summer season and next year’s Europe summer yet again, forever in awe that I get to call this a job.

Thank you to all my sweet angels for your trust, friendships and invitations to have me come and witness your best memories alongside you.

Heart is full.

Grateful feelings today // Runaway in Iceland —

Love this frame. It makes me feel all sorts of feels and continue to speak back to me time and time again. Isn’t this the wild power or art? 😭

Today it reminds me.

Run. Laugh. Get lost. The best memories don’t wait for permission, they happen in motion. One day, when the moment feels far away, this is the kind of photograph that speaks back to us, reminding us of the freedom that was always ours.

A NEW ERA —

Introducing this very exciting change. A dreamlike yet achingly real new direction full of soul and beauty combined.

The last year has been an absolute whirlwind of change and new discoveries. I’ve been so fortunate to have been invited into some of the most mindblowing, intimate celebrations all over the world. I still can’t wrap my mind around it all… that total strangers across the globe would open their worlds so wide and have me document once in a lifetime incredibly special and important moments in their lives.

I’ve gained some of my most cherished friendships through this, friends now who were once just clients and that right there, the fact that I received their friendship, is the biggest honour and what I count as success in this very demanding world of art and commerce.

And as we evolve and change so do our intentions and goals. I’m so excited to kick off this new season with a beautifully aligned rebrand that truly represents my love and intentional approach for celebrations. This is an ode for weddings to be real, for your artworks to be real memories, not manufactured moments for the sake of a beautiful image.

To live every moment of your day, truly, and have images that artfully transport you back 30, 40, 50 years from now, for you to keep finding detail in them through time, reminding you of love when you forget… That is the real luxury and what most don’t get.

Massive thank you to my dear .nz for translating the whirlwind in my mind and producing a visual language that is so transcending. Both so visually beautiful but also full of heart, story, meaning and soul. More to come in this! There’s only so much of her magic I can include in this post alone!

Let the love letter to memory continue to be written 🗝️

With love,
Pia

To the Ceremony.

Final little collection of F&J’s day, moments before the ceremony.

These final moments are always so fascinating for me to document. It’s when the eager anticipation in the air settles, everyone becomes present, fully, distractions are gone and the next 15-20 minutes feel sacred. This day was totally like this, yet relaxed and hilarious as F&J are.

Seriously in love with this kinda magic.
