Documentary wedding photography in Rotorua

We're documentary wedding photographers & videographers who shoot right across Rotorua, Taupō & the central North Island.

If you want your Rotorua wedding to look & feel like the actual day, not a stiff, over-posed version of it, that's exactly what we do. We stay relaxed, get out of your way, & catch the real moments, the glances, the nervous giggles & the in-between bits you'd usually miss. Then we edit it all in a natural, timeless style that won't feel dated in ten years.

One team for photo, video & Super 8

Most couples want both photo & video, & on the day that usually means two crews bumping into each other. We keep it to one team who work together, so your day stays calm & everything matches in style. Lakeside light & native forest are gorgeous on Super 8, & your sneak peeks land within two weeks (which is honestly unheard of).

A Rotorua wedding photographer who travels to you

We travel for Rotorua & Taupō weddings. Travel is free within 50km of any main NZ city, & a flat $350 for the genuinely far-flung days. From a lakeside lawn to a forest clearing to a lodge on the water, wherever your day is happening in the central North Island, coverage stays easy.

“something we will always treasure”

There are so many special moments throughout a wedding day that go by so quickly, and being able to look back at them through our photos is something we will always treasure.

“so we never felt awkward”

We had a small intimate wedding and he was very helpful with suggesting ideas from photo groupings to where/how to pose so we never felt awkward.
