Rachel and Peter, Te Mata Peak Engagement Session

March 9, 2017

Hawkes Bay Photographer, Napier Photographer, Te Mata Peak, Engagement, Engaged, Wedding Photographer, Hugging, Rock

Rachel and Peter are a lovely Hawke’s Bay couple and super comfortable with eachother. I love engagement sessions as you can choose the nicest light to be some where, but on this evening the light was really super special up on Te Mata Peak, don’t you think? As a Hawke’s Bay Photographer this has to be one of the perks of the job.

  • So I low key do family sessions and afterwards I'm sometimes perplexed with the images people choose for me to make into prints. However Scott and Becs nailed their choice with this image of them and the fam on their family farm. Incidentally, driving up to their place made me rethink the wisdom of having a 2WD Subaru Impreza as my work car....⁣⠀

  • This image was really popular on the Magdalen Hill Instragram so I thought I'd sneakily benefit from Toni of MH's life choices and post this over here. Notwithstanding I loved the colours and poise of these two, even after I made them climb over slimy river rocks to get here. But that's me - river slime, sheep poo, mud, overgrown stuff is my jam.⠀

  • Krystle and Richer and we're about to head back inside and join the guests for an emotional ride of a reception right here, with the sea breeze at the end of their wedding day rolling in and giving most of us goosebumps. Maybe not me though cos I tear around a bit x⠀

  • This is a bride appreciation post. This is Lizz, a former bride and at this wedding she is with Krystle about to put a keepsake on her boquet as her maid of honour. Isn't she beautiful? You can tell just from her smile that she's a warm, caring person. The reason I am here at this wedding at all is because Lizz recommended me to Krystle after her wedding, which Krystle was also a bridesmaid at. Incidentally one of the guests at Krystle's wedding was recommended me by Krystle and they have just booked me for next year for their wedding so I am so grateful to all of these ladies. They also get bonus points for being such beautiful, welcoming, down to earth and lovely people to be around. I know there is a lot of talk about bridezillas, and reality shows are made on the subject, but in general my brides are genuinely lovely people. I'm very thankful that I get to do a job that I feel like I am good at, that people value, that I love doing, with good folk. I'm not going to forget that and I am so appreciative it's hard to put into words. ⠀

  • I see Tor and Dean all the time around town. Dean works at the local hardware store, and Victoria @osterfield11 works at Chantal's Cafe which is one of my coffee spots, and anyone who knows me know I need my fix on the daily. So I kinda felt like these guys were old friends by the time it came to their wedding. I wanted to make sure I did my best for them and when I bumped into Mr Nicola Nicholson and he said it was fine to shoot at this spot, I did my internal happy dance. Stayed po faced outwardly though. After all I'm a kiwi male still.⠀
