An adventure that could look like this:

The Kiwi Experience

Here's what your elopement can look like:

 

  • Christchurch airport arrival (I meet you there and take you to your B&B in wine country - Waipara. This is a couple of days before your elopement.)

  • Then we road trip to Tekapo for your adventure session (pre-elopement) in between the fields of lupins and stargazing portraits in New Zealand's clearest Milky Way view locations

  • Day One of Elopement: We wake up at dawn road tripping to Pukaki Lake with the clearest view of Mt.Cook for your Private Vows followed by an easy hike to the Tasman Glacier with plenty of time for a glacier picnic and celebratory bubble pop before making our way to Queenstown in time for dinner at the famous Ferg Burger (New Zealand's best burgers!)

  • Day Two of Elopement: With time for breakfast in bed we start our off the beaten track road trip for the day to Moke Lake followed by time spent in Glenorchy exploring the lakes and rivers before heading back to Queenstown for a classic Kiwi dinner of Fish and Chips!

2 - The Call

Before we confirm your date, we'll jump on a zoom call so the three of us can meet (you, your partner and myself). It may sound unnecessary but I promise this is the best way for us to meet and see if we are a good fit so your day can go off without a hitch! It won't be super long and we can fit the call into your schedule (I totally get how busy life can be)!

3 - Secure your Date & Start Planning

After our call we can go ahead and confirm your date for your elopement, yay! This is when the fun begins, planning! Bringing those dreams to life and creating a unique day perfect for the two of you. I will send through a questionnaire and start the location scouting process. I'll help guide you through every step of the way taking out all the guess work and making this process as streamline as possible!

Remember I'll be here 24/7 so you never have to feel like you've been left in the dark!

Still reminiscing over your day you'll find 50 gorgeous sneak peeks images in your inbox the day after your elopement ready for you to share with family and friends!

I only take on a limited amount of elopement each season ensuring that you'll have my fullest attention which means in a short 4 weeks you'll have your beautiful final gallery ready for you to relive your day all over again! You'll be able to download (high resolution and web-sized images), share with family and friends and print all in one place.
