Red Rocks Sunset Portrait Session - DollHouse 'Do

I recently teamed up with my friend from DollHouse 'Do, one of Wellingtons talented bridal hair stylists! I love coming up with creative ideas with this pretty lady, she even made the flower crown herself and did an amazing job. This shoot was filled with so many laughs and a amazing sunset.

The Leo Style - 3 Year Blogiversary

I recently photographed the wonderful Larissa to mark the celebration of 3 years since launching her blog The Leo Style! Leo is a lifestyle blogger and YouTuber who shares tips for women and mums with busy lifestyles. 

We walked around Aston Norwood Gardens carrying a pink balloon in the shape of a number 3, the cutest birthday cake made by Sweet Bakery & Cakery and we even had a glass of bubbles to celebrate!

Engagement Shoot at the Botanical Gardens - Anita and Leon

Congrats to Anita and Leon who won my engagement shoot giveaway a couple of weeks back! I love meeting couples and hearing about their wedding plans. It's an exciting time and there's no better way to kick of the celebrations with some new photos together.

We met at the Wellington Botanical Gardens and explored a different area to where I usually meet couples at this location. I loved the cactus and succulent garden!

Foxglove Venue Wellington - Winter Bridal Shoot

I teamed up with some incredible Wellington wedding vendors to create a winter themed styled shoot. This was something we shot during the winter season as it was the perfect time to team up and do something creative and fun. We wanted to create an atmosphere of love and warmth, to show couples that winter weddings can be really beautiful too.     

Our theme was 'Enchanted Romance'. The 'Enchanted' theme was carried throughout our locations and venue, using continuous rich colours and earthy textures.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the day. You are all so wonderful and generous! A special thank you to Melissa for all of your ideas and support during the planning process.
