Amelia & Ben's Black Barn River Room & Polars Wedding, Havelock North
This wedding is a wedding I should have blogged a long time ago, and as such is very late. This was a beautiful lovely wedding, the ones that photographers in Hawke's Bay dream of really. I had such a great time photographing it, but this was also COVID. So the Hawke's Bay wedding photography and the event photography industry was scrambling, stressed, and not sure what was around the corner. People were cancelling thier weddings. Lockdowns were happening. People had stressful personal times happening. And in the midst of all that these beautiful people @ameliahopkinson_ and Ben got married. And Hawke's Bay was stunning. The River Room and the Poplars are a stunning spot for a ceremony and to get ready, respectively.
