Default Post Wedding - Traditional Indian Dress/Sari & Henna Fun in Auckland City

This lovely couple originally asked me to shoot their wedding over a year ago, but unfortunately at the time I was living in London.
Ultimately, I made it back to New Zealand in time for their wedding, but they had already secured another few photographers for their three days of celebration.

The following weekend though at short notice we a quick family session, still in some wedding attire.


Groom and his sister






Candid moment in the warm evening sunlight


Silhouetted against the harbour of Auckland (Waitemata)


Rangitoto - Our 600 year old volcano in the Hauraki Gulf


Behind the Scenes fun with Katrina - my partner - who managed to get some amazing shots

Check out the full series on our blog:

Cheers!

*love* the third one!

The one of your assistant doesn't look like it lines up with how her arm actually is held... is that really her shadow?

#3 is great, but with a bride that lovely, how could it not be? Also really like #6, but the highlight in the foreground is a bit distracting.

Yeah the 6th one, I needed the flash dialled up heavily. Already dodged some of it back, guess I could always go for some more

Great shots, especially #2,3,4 and 6. Do post more, unless this is all you took
