Destination Wedding Austria | Laura & Tobi

I met Laura and Tobi while capturing their engagement during my time in Europe last year. When they reached out to me to photograph their destination wedding in Austria this year, it was an immediate YES for me. Escaping the New Zealand winter to spend those months back in Europe is always a delight, and swapping my usual New Zealand backdrops for their mountain wedding in Austria was an exciting change.

Colourful Farm Wedding Styled Shoot x Hera Couture

We got inspired to remove ourselves from our day-to-day surroundings of the mountains & lakes of Wanaka, and swapped it out for some Southland scenes in a unique scenario. With some of our favourite vendors & gal pals (and George) in the industry, we pulled our efforts together to create something different from the usual.

Tauranga Backyard Wedding | Paul & Jane

Paul and Jane. Where to even begin. This one is extra special to me, as Paul is my partner’s uncle and therefore they both have become my family over the past 7 years. These two have been together for 30 years and only decided a few months ago that they finally wanted to get married. With all of their family coming to New Zealand for a big reunion anyway, they made it all happen pretty quickly. I remember how excited I was when they called me to ask if I would consider capturing this special day for them. A dreamy backyard wedding to photograph in Tauranga, as well as being able to spend time with the whole family for the weekend?! Hell yessss.
