Zoe and Jesse

From a heartfelt first touch to a beautiful celebration at Black Walnut near Tauranga

Zoe and Jesse’s wedding at Black Walnut Wedding Venue just out of Tauranga. An amazing wedding venue where a relaxed walk around Black Walnuts property unveils beautiful and natural country goodness. Whether you choose to have your wedding ceremony in the newly built Tree Church, the stunning Glass house or under the tree’s with a country back drop, you are spoiled for choice. Such a stunning venue for wedding photography.

An aspect I loved was what Zoe and Jesse’s ‘first touch’. A back yard meetup to settle the nerves before their ceremony. Beautiful, heartfelt words were read to each other, even sharing a hug without seeing each other! Yes tears were flowing (ahem they were not alone 😉

A fun wedding party, a chill vibe with a chill couple.
Thanks so much for having me on board. – Rochelle
