Five of them and not one looking at the camera 📸 still one of my all time favourites!

You don’t need everyone smiling at the lens for it to be THE photo…

And mum’s actually in these — not behind the camera🤍

So if you’re always the one taking the photos… get in the frame!! You won’t regret it!

Would love to get your crew out on the hills 🌅 Let’s go!

There’s something so nostalgic about 35mm Film 🎞️ ✨
These little surprises from Gaia + Luke’s wedding day have that grainy, dreamy feel to them — the kind of imperfect, unexpected shots that make you fall in love with a moment all over again once they’re developed.

I love offering it as a fun little add-on now — no pressure, just something extra for the couples who want a bit of that magic in their gallery too ✨

Take me back to this dream day — the couple were so in love, half the wedding party had the most beautiful Italian accents, those Te Mata Peak views were showing off, and the flowers from were so stunning I thought I’d been transported to Europe🇮🇹

I’ll never know how I got to help these gorgeous people (inside & out) capture such special & fun memories - pinch me - What a gift 🥹✨

What a gorgeous morning in the studio with this beautiful Central Hawke's Bay family — Breanna, Tyler and their new son, Koa, in for a newborn and family lifestyle session.

I love this style of photography because it's just real with soft light, genuine cuddles and all those tiny newborn details you want to remember forever. Koa's only just started holding eye contact, and getting to capture that stage before it disappears is such a privilege.

Loveable, caring and supportive — that's how this family described themselves, and it came through in every moment we shared together.

You can see the full gallery and read more on the blog here: https://www.charlotterowlandsphotography.co.nz/blog/newborn-baby-family-lifestyle-studio-session-hawkes-bay-koa/

If you're expecting a new baby or want relaxed, natural family photos anywhere in Hawke's Bay, I'd love to hear from you!

Ake & Dylan and this little stretch of Porangahau coast, all movement, salt air!
The beach is so clearly your happy place, and I cannot WAIT to capture your wedding later this year!

Eskdale Church PART ONE 🖤 ⛪️🔔
Introducing Emma & Bayley 🤍✨

Married at Eskdale War Memorial Church, surrounded by just 10 of their closest people who matter most, on a beautiful Thursday afternoon in April XO

What a treat to be part of something so special ✨

Clever Emma made her own dress, sewn from the same roll of fabric as her mum’s wedding dress — I don’t think it gets more special than that! ❤️👏

Swipe through for the ceremony 🤍

PART TWO to follow — portraits at Tongio Beach, coming soon!

Meet Dennis — a very patient Central Bearded Dragon, unofficial 4th sibling, and full-blown obsession of his two big brothers. 🦎

His little sister brought her own best mate along too — a well-loved snuggle bunny that's clearly seen some serious cuddles. 🐰❤️

These portraits, in colour and black & white, capture something that's such a big part of family life — the pets and toys kids can't imagine being without. Dennis has clearly been carried everywhere he goes 🦎🐉

Kids change so fast, and one day these boys won't be walking around with a lizard on their shoulder like it's totally normal. But the photo will still be there, telling the story of exactly who they were at this age and what they loved 🥰

Honestly, it's the simple portraits like these that end up meaning the most on your walls. You'll never regret having them.
If your family has a Dennis of its own (lizard, dog, favourite toy — I don't discriminate), I'd love to capture it too

What a summer it's been. 💛

I've had the absolute privilege of travelling across Manawatū and Hawke's Bay — and beyond — to document love stories in some of the most beautiful places in New Zealand. From the Pohangina Valley in the Manawatū, across to Dannevirke, all the way to Napier!

From private farms to river and beach elopements, from stunning old churches to favourite venues to woodsheds to hidden gems — every single couple has reminded me why I love this work so much.

I'm so grateful. Grateful for the couples who trusted me with their day. Grateful for the venues that opened their doors.

Grateful for the light, the fun, the tears, the vibes, the quiet glances. Wedding photography isn't just about capturing images — it's about witnessing love, and family, and memories. Here's to a summer I'll never forget!!!

Peak House, Valley D Vine Restaurant and Function Centre. Ngāpuke Lodge Pohangina Valley, Pohangina Heights, Camp Rangi Woods, No5 Cafe & Larder, Backpaddock Lakes, Pukehoe Church, Eskdale Church, farms in Dannevirke and Tikokino, rivers, beaches & everything in between!

So if you're newly engaged and quietly wondering who's going to document your day — let's talk. I'd absolutely LOVE to be part of your story 😊
