Documentary wedding photography in Wellington

We're documentary wedding photographers & videographers who shoot right across Wellington & the Wairarapa.

If you want your Wellington 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 separate crews bumping into each other. We keep it to one team who work together, so your day stays calm & everything comes back matching in style. Want that nostalgic, grainy look too? We shoot real Super 8 film as an add-on. It's a lot of content from one relaxed crew, & your sneak peeks land within two weeks (which is honestly unheard of).

A Wellington wedding photographer who travels to you

We're based in Palmerston North, just up the road, so we shoot Wellington & Wairarapa weddings all the time. Travel is free within 50km of any main NZ city, & a flat $350 for the genuinely far-flung days. From a harbourside city ceremony to a Martinborough vineyard, wherever your day is happening in the region, coverage stays easy.

“heartfelt and emotional moments”

We could not recommend Ryan, Liam, and the team at Selah Weddings enough! We were amazed at the quality of our photos, and how they managed to capture so many heartfelt and emotional moments from the day!

“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.
