Wedding Films & Wedding Videography, now being captured by Michael
It fills me with great excitement to announce that I'm now taking videographer bookings with me on video only, or as a combined wedding photography and videography package.
If you want a combined photography and videography package it will be with an associate wedding photographer on photos, with me as videographer. I shot my first wedding films last season (exciting!), and since I am newer to videography you are able to get me shooting your wedding film at reasonable prices.
Monessa & Carl's Wedding Film, Kauri Bay Boomrock, Auckland
Monessa and Carl’s small, intimate, family affair was a sweet, lovely day and my absolute pleasure to document on film. Video really, but you get the gist. I’d like to thank Kasia for having me along, much appreciated my friend! As a former Aucklander and now Hawke's Bay Videographer I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Auckland, and this day was simply stunning up there, save for a few drops here and there but that just gave us rainbows x

Michaela & Mack's Wedding Film, Meadowood House, Hawke's Bay
This was a wedding film I really wanted to nail. It’s my first season as a Hawke’s Bay wedding videographer and having met these two knew it was going to be a lovely wedding. Animal lovers, recovering from the cyclone after being badly damaged and losing so much, lovely people, and willing to take a chance on me. So thanks Michaela and Mack. I hope you like what I made you x
James & Adelaide's Wedding Film, The Old Church, Hawke's Bay
James and Addie are a couple I will always be eternally grateful for because they took a chance on me to have them for their beautiful, sweet, funny, whimsical, smile filled, rain filled, laughter filled wedding for the first time as a paid Hawke's Bay Wedding Videographer. I hope I do you proud, you lovely sweet golden people. Special shout out to Coralee for shooting photo for me.
From their eternal jokes all day at the old Church and at their house to soldiering on at Pakowhai Country Park in Heavy Rain and keeping it positive, light, fun and memorable, this was a really fun day for me.
Ropati & Sarah's Wedding Film, Markovina, Auckland
Ropati and Sarah @xsezzax were Married at Markovina in Auckland, and it was lovely to be there capturing their day as a wedding filmaker. It was a real family wedding, surrounded by their nearest and dearest and as you will see, it was a very emotional yet happy day for our lovely couple. I chose a lovely 80s tune because I loved the romantic feel of the song, and how it was a song about service in love of someone else and connectedness. Thanks heaps to @samanthadonaldsonphotography for having me along, and of course to my lovely sweet bride and groom.

Sydnee & Josh's Wedding Film, Crab Farm Winery, Hawke's Bay
Wedding Videography, Crab Farm Winery, Whirinaki Beach, Hawkes Bay
Sydnee and Josh's Crab Farm Winery Wedding in such brilliant sunshine was such a treat, after a relatively wet and stormy summer for most weddings. I was on Photography and Robin on Hawke's Bay Videographer duties, it felt like a real dream team x
Christle & Nathan's Wedding Film, Cape Estate, Hawke's Bay
Wedding Videography, Cape Esate and Haumoana Wedding, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
The wedding was shot by my associate Photographer Nita on Photo, and Robin and Tiago on Hawke's Bay Videographer duties and they did such an amazing job in very trying conditions. It was such an elegant, colourfully decorated wedding and it was in direct contrast and you might say defiance of a very wet, grey lead up with a bit of a mudfest happening. However the clouds parted and we got some amazing photos and wedding videography happening, and for that I am very proud and grateful x
Imogen & Geoff's Wedding Film, Private House, Hawke's Bay
Wedding Videography, Private House and Waimarama Beach, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
With associate Natalie on photography, and Robin on Hawke's Bay Videographer duties, this was a team effort. These two are Waimarama natives, living on the hills looking down to this majestic, golden, vast, beautiful beach. You can see a lot of love in this wedding video, and isn't that what it's all about at the end of the day?
FILM STORIES
Michaela and Mack, Engagement Session, Waimarama Beach
Michaela and Mack's Engagement Session at Waimarama Beach, Hastings, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand was such a fun, easy way to spend a spring evening. And what a lovely evening it was. Their wedding is fast approaching and I am so very excited to be part of it.
Kelsey and Dane, Family Session, Ocean Beach
Kelsey @kelsey_cleaver_ and Dane @dane_cleaver are old wedding clients and very kindly agreed to be my guinea pigs for this video family shoot on a very windy, blustery but strangely mind winter’s day. It was so lovely to see these two again and I am so proud of Dane for becoming a @blackcapsnz squaddie. I am merely taking my first steps as a videographer but have shot a wedding and about to shoot another, so stay tunes and if you want to take a punt on me as your wedding videographer, get me while I’m cheap x
CREATIVE FILMS
Chlöe - Portrait Session Film
Chlöe and I took a little trip to the beach at Waipatiki to shoot some test footage for me to keep us on our toes. There was not a cloud to be seen all day, so we were lucky that we got a misty ombre sunset with the pinks, purples, blues and other hues that a Hawkes Bay Videographer likes to have lighting up the sky over the falling waves on this stunning beach. New Zealand Videographers would kill to have these beaches on their doorstep, its true x
Eva - Portrait Session Film
Eva @evaography is a local actress and I am a local videographer so we made a little vignette about how Eva loves music. Thanks @makayla_beer_aka @marblefox.beauty for the hair and makeup and for the amazing artists for their music.
Raveena - Portrait Session Film
Went on a portrait film shoot with Raveena and it was lovely. As a Hawke's Bay Videographer I am so happy it's spring again so these sorts of shoots can happen more and more.
Norrie - Portrait Session - Ocean Beach, Hawkes Bay
Just a little bit of test footage, experience gathering and learning with @norrie_xo at my first equal Beach of all time, Ocean Beach. It is now tied with Waipatiki Beach for favourite and Kairakau Beach is rising throught the ranks. It was a lil bit chilly and Norrie found the water freezing but I didn’t as much. But as a Hawke's Bay Videographer I keep getting drawn to these beautiful beaches when all but deserted and it feels like the ends of the earth.
Boy at Ocean Beach
This is test footage from Ocean Beach that show's the look my videography is taking. This was a particularly dark and stormy day so I went with it and used music and imagery to reflect that. Featuring my eldest son.
