Based in the Catlins I can not walk ten paces without being inspired! I have spent the better part of my life surfing and exploring this unique part of the country. So when i began creating images, surf photography was a natural progression and the beach and ocean has become the center point of my photography. I began wedding and portrait photography 6 years ago and I enjoy the challenges that come with it! My wedding style is very relaxed and low stress ! A combination of journalistic styled images together with some minimal posed portraits insure variety in you're wedding collection. I understand that most people are not models so I stay away from complicated and uncomfortable posing!
