Your wedding day will move quickly. I am here to ensure that when you look back, you don’t just remember the day—you feel it all over again. My approach is natural, unposed, and deeply personal. I’m there to capture the nerves, the laughter, and the fleeting moments you might otherwise miss.

Explore my packages below, and if you feel a connection to my work, I would love to hear about what you’re planning.

Cinematic

pre-wedding session

$1,200

 

Cinematic storytelling cannot be rushed. It requires space to breathe, landscapes to explore, and time to wait for the perfect, fleeting light.


This dedicated 3 hour experience is designed like a film production—uncapped by rigid hourly constraints, allowing us to move between locations, switch wardrobe styles, and let your natural connection unfold. 


Travel fees apply for locations outside Southland region.

My signature cinematic experience is for couples who want to create art, not just tick off a wedding checklist.

It’s a chance to escape staged smiles for raw, atmospheric storytelling—set against New Zealand's wild coastlines, windswept plains, or dramatic forests. With an editorial wardrobe experience tailored to the landscape, you’ll have the space to slow down, connect, and just be without a ticking clock disrupting the mood.


What is included:


Up to 3 hours of FULL GUIDANCE experience in 2-3 cinematic locations (from wild southern coastlines to moody forest backdrops)

Personalized mood boarding uniquely inspired by your story

2-3 outfit changes

100+ carefully curated with my own signature style, high-resolution digital images

Private, password-protected online gallery with unlimited downloads and full print rights

4 hour coverage. Just the two of you, a breathtaking landscape, and a story written entirely on your own terms.

WEDDINGS

From $3,000

 

Starts from 5 hour coverage. Defined by depth, emotion, and cinematic gravity, your wedding day deserves to be documented exactly as it feels. I travel New Zealand wide to capture the unhurried laughter, raw connection, and the quiet, in-between moments of your celebration. Because no two love stories are alike, your package inclusions are flexible and tailored completely to you—we’ll refine all the beautiful details together once we connect.

SUPER 8 Film Coverage


Authentic motion picture film captured slowly and intentionally — preserving your memories with soft movement, organic grain, flicker, and timeless emotion. Super 8 creates a cinematic keepsake that feels nostalgic, imperfect, and deeply personal.


Unlike digital video, Super 8 is filmed intentionally in real time, meaning every frame is thoughtfully chosen rather than continuously recorded.


Perfect for couples drawn to emotional storytelling and vintage cinema-inspired memories.
