Kelly Oliver Photography Natural light story telling / Newborn / Babies / Maternity / Families / Elopements + WEDDINGS Hey Im Kelly. My job rocks! Do what you love - love what you do.

I love the people I meet, the fun I get to have & the cool images that I create for people. I’m a lifestyle Photographer based in Hamilton, New Zealand with my hubby + wee gal Zoe & our crazy cavoodle Indy. I like to think we are all normal by having a white picket fence. I like to keep my brain busy with natural light lifestyle photography. From stealing cuddles off newborns, being a baby whisper

, to chasing toddlers & playing peek-a-boo. Love the storytelling of a loveday - weddings are amazing - but this will be my last season 2021 (& only accommodating weddings 5hours or less :) ).

Literally just need this vibe on my wall & the affirmation that winter weddings are lit 👌🏼 🔥 loved the coats & jackets which went with the slim line, simplistic & light colours of the dresses. These 2 are both such a vibe!

Probably the shoot of my dreams …
Ingredients include, ponies, cute kids, sunset @ their home. Literally me in my happy place.
Loved creating these memories for Emma + Brendan in their backyard … how seriously cute are their gals, their wee freckles, seeing double + Big sis with her missing teeth & swag. Super lucky to have Emma has Zoe’s show jumping coach who she absolutely adores.
I’ll let the photos do the talking x

That small pocket of time, just the two of you, at sunset, when we moochi away while people finish eating & the tables are being cleared.
Time which lets you breathe, chat amongst yourselves & just take in the magic.
My absolute favourite time of the day, these literally captured in 10/15 mins … these two making my job so easy, despite shooting from in a bush 😍🫡

Capturing a new journey for these two (well now 3😜) in Raglan, seriously never disappoints. Just loved the cloudy sky giving the soft tones &reflections on the black sand. Morgan seriously stunning, these from her own wardrobe & her piercing eyes 🥰😍

Engagement shoots …. Also when you beg Amanda to use her garden at sunset … chefs kiss I say! Met doing some Christmas shoots up at the hospital & she’s pretty bloody neat! Also has a love & spark for taking pretty pictures to … these two are saying I do at one of the most stunning lake views later this year, can already tell it’s going to be a goodie. Loved this cutie pie shoot w a picnic, bubbles & a glow of a night. Not to sure I could call this ‘work’ … love evenings like this x

What a banger of a day!
Feel so lucky to hang with this crew again, they are a rad time, having captured both of Nick’s sister’s weddings.
Nick & Raychel met working as teenagers at countdown & have been together ever since. Kinda funny as Raychel’s name is spelt with a y so it made finding her on socials hard, made me giggle in the speeches.

The colours of this wedding represent their everyday style but with a twist, earthy greens, dark oranges, beiges, browns & blacks & yellow - their gals fav colour ❤️ set perfectly at at the beginning of Autumn . Pearls were a huge love of Rach’s, absolutely looked Amazing in her dress.

These guys do some of the best dancefloors out there- yes that is Nick playing the drums on his bestmans ass 😂

Actually don’t know where to start with these two.
Now newly married, Jacob & Chantal () we had an idea for their engagement shoot.
I am always blown away by the people that cross my path, Chantal lost her darling husband Sam to brain cancer, ever so young & Im so glad these 2 found each other in the grief & path afterwards.
Seeing them beam with each other, was actually inspiring but also an epic time.
Chantal is a huge flower lover & creator, so it only seemed fit to use garden with a picnic inspired shoot, doused with homemade sourdough, kombucha, wine, fruit, homemade raw slice & pottery pieces that have flowed through her wheel.

Sometimes I swear all I do … is push a button & absorb what’s in front of me … this was one of those times 🫶
