Darren and Kylie's Wedding Day was blessed with perfect weather - which to be honest in the month of may in the Naki can be tricky to get. My first Autumn shoot ever and wow what a venue for the ceremony, a hidden gem of a park / historic estate called Tupare' that is free for the public to enjoy.
I truly had no idea this place existed and Kylie told me to go check it out before the big day a couple weeks out, I wasn't disappointed and like Darren and Kylie fell in love with place straight away. The breath taking beauty of the estate especially with the autumn leave colours was mind blowing and the background and foreground combo's were a photographers dream! Stoked I actually mapped out certain spots prior as on the day I had a challenging 55mins to complete the couples wedding photos and hopefully you'll agree when viewing we got the magic.
Such a beautiful bride - fashionably late but with children in tow the scene was set for a fun heart felt ceremony with speeches that really confirmed the real commitment and Love that this new family was being founded on. A pleasure to shoot and see a close knit crew of friends and family who made it there (and some who watched via a live stream from a far) relish in the afternoon and evening celebrations.
Hope you guys enjoy these images - I know I def enjoyed the shoot and edit : )
