“So, picture this. You organise months in advance to have your elopment in November up north and the day prior was beautiful and sunny. You have aspirations of a beautiful photo shoot with your wife in the sun and then BAM it POURS DOWN.

This was our experience on the day we got married. However, instead of fearing that we won’t get the nice shot of us by the waterfall or by the Victoria battery site, Rochelle set our minds at ease by telling us “we will 100% get you those photos AND MORE!”

That is how Rochelle works, she brings with her the eye for the best shots - prior knowledge of the area (for us it was Karangahake) - and an unrelenting spirit and enthusiasm that is positive and infectious. By the end of it we were worn out and drenched to the bone, but after only a few days, Rochelle had returned to us several AMAZING photos that used the rain (the thing we thought would ruin the aesthetic) to create stunning visuals we could have never even imagined before the day.

Me and my partner are the shy types and not very outgoing(hence the elopment), but she was the perfect person for us. If you want someone who is going to go above and beyond for you, respect you, and extract every beautiful essence of the day, then Rochelle is who you are looking for. I cannot stress enough how lucky we feel to have found her.

We can genuinely say now that we love the rain thanks to her” 😁💙🌧⛈️☀️

Goodness, it’s been so hard choosing a few favouri Goodness, it’s been so hard choosing a few favourites from Nikki & Dillion’s day!

They tied the knot at Whangamata Farm Weddings, which honestly couldn’t have been more them. A working farm, stunning bush, laid-back, family-style atmosphere they’re all about. The kind of place where no one sweats the small stuff - but pull off an epic celebration with true blue country hospitality.

These are days I love, they got to hang with their people with the kids running free. All the good stuff. Thanks so much for having me on board!
