Wedding Photography
Hi I'm Brooke, a New Zealand Based Wedding photographer based in Waikato, who loves love!
I will travel as far as I need to to capture your day. I create thoughtful & timeless wedding photos for couples who value real moments, beautiful imagery, and photographs that feel like memories.
“Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.”
Paul Coelho
On your wedding day
My approach is calm, friendly, and observant. I’ll step in with gentle guidance when needed, while otherwise allowing moments to unfold naturally as they happen. Some of the most meaningful images are often the ones you never even realised were happening. I want your photographs to feel natural to your relationship and reflective of the atmosphere of your day. I also love creating beautiful, thoughtful portraits that still feel effortless and true to you. The result is a gallery that feels timeless, emotional, and deeply personal.
DIGITAL + 35MM film
I photograph weddings using both digital and 35mm film formats.
I primarily shoot digitally to document your wedding day, to capture fast moving moments and often reaching for film when I’m drawn to a certain light, moment, or atmosphere. For me, film adds a timeless, nostalgic quality that beautifully complements digital photography. I naturally move between both throughout a wedding day to capture your day in a way that feels emotive, natural, and true to the atmosphere of it all.

Before Your Wedding Day
You can reach out through my contact form or instagram dms and tell me a little about your wedding plans, I genuinely love hearing all the details, whether you’re planning something intimate and quiet or a big celebration with all your favourite people.
Once you get in touch, we’ll chat through what you’re planning, your vision for the day, and check whether I still have your wedding date available.
My pricing and packages are available on my website, but I’m always happy to help you figure out what coverage would suit your day best, along with any add-ons you might be considering.
Once you’re ready to move forward, I’ll send through a contract to sign along with an invoice for a 20% deposit to officially secure your date in my calendar. After that, you’re all booked in, yay!
We can catch up for a coffee to discuss your day early on and as the wedding gets closer, I’m always happy to help with timeline planning and guidance to make sure the day flows naturally and there’s enough space for the moments that matter most.
FAQ's
Can we customise a package?
Absolutely. Every wedding is different, and I’m happy to tailor coverage to suit your plans and what feels most important to you. Choose a package that you are gravitating towards and we can build it up with additional time, photos, extra photographers etc.
Do you travel for weddings?
Yes! I love traveling. I’m available for weddings throughout New Zealand and beyond. Travel fees may apply depending on the location, but I’m always happy to discuss options with you.
Do you shoot film and digital?
Yes, film photography is included in all 6 and 9 hour wedding bookings. I love the softness, texture, and timeless feeling that film brings to a wedding gallery.
I photograph alongside digital throughout the day, which allows me to capture both the intentional moments on film and the more fleeting, fast-moving moments digitally. The two formats work together beautifully to create a gallery that feels nostalgic and timeless.
How far in advance should we book?
Most couples book anywhere from 6–18 months in advance, especially for summer weddings. If you already have a date in mind, I’d recommend getting in touch sooner rather than later to check availability.
How long does it take to receive our gallery?
Wedding galleries are typically delivered within 4–6 weeks. I take time to carefully edit each image so your final gallery feels cohesive and timeless.
How do we secure our wedding date?
The best place to start is by getting in touch through my enquiry form so I can confirm whether your wedding date is available.
Once you’re ready to move forward, a signed contract and booking fee will officially secure your date in my calendar.
How would you describe your photography style?
My work is centred around honest storytelling with a balance of documentary moments and thoughtfully guided portraits. I’m drawn to natural light, genuine emotion, soft movement, and timeless imagery that feels effortless and enduring.
Do you help with wedding timelines?
I’m always happy to help with timeline guidance, especially when it comes to planning the best light for portraits and creating space for a relaxed, enjoyable day.
