Service Selected: Wedding Videography

A Cinematic Wedding Video is more than just a recording; it's an artful storytelling experience. We achieve this by seamlessly blending speeches, visuals, and music to craft a compelling narrative. Unlike traditional wedding videos, a cinematic approach involves shooting high-quality short clips that focus on capturing the essence and emotions of your special day, rather than documenting every single minute. Our cinematic wedding videographers aim to create a beautifully crafted film that you’ll cherish forever.

Service Selected: Wedding and Elopements

Elopement photography is a style of wedding photography that focuses on capturing the intimate moments between the bride and groom. Wedding elopements typically involve a smaller, more private ceremony, and a wedding elopements photographer specializes in documenting these personal and heartfelt moments. This style of photography emphasizes the couple's connection and the unique aspects of their special day.
Planning a wedding elopement involves choosing a meaningful location, deciding on a date, and ensuring you have the necessary legal documents. You may also want to hire a wedding elopements photographer to capture the intimate moments of your day. Consider including elements that are important to you, such as personal vows or a unique venue that reflects your relationship.
Yes, many couples choose to have a small reception or celebration after their wedding elopement. This allows you to celebrate with a larger group of friends and family without the stress and expense of a traditional wedding. A wedding elopements photographer can capture both your elopement and the subsequent celebration, ensuring you have a complete photographic record of your special events.
It's a good idea to book your elopement photoshoot at least 6-12 months in advance, especially if you're eloping during a popular wedding season or want to secure a specific photographer. This allows time for planning the shoot location, any permits needed, and coordinating with vendors if necessary.
Our booking process is simple and straightforward. To secure your date, we require a signed contract and a non-refundable deposit. Once these are completed, your date is officially reserved in our calendar. We’ll then have a consultation to discuss your specific needs, timeline, and any special requests. The remaining balance is usually due closer to the event date, and we offer flexible payment plans if needed to make the process easy and stress-free.
We’re used to working in all weather conditions, and some of the best photos come from unexpected weather! If you’re concerned about rain or other elements, we can discuss backup plans to ensure your day is still captured beautifully.
Yes, we love to travel! We cover areas up to 100 km from Wellington at no additional cost. For locations beyond that, we can either cover fuel costs or arrange a travel agreement depending on where the event is. If your location is further, we’re happy to discuss travel fees based on the distance and logistics to ensure everything is seamless.
