Chauffeuring:
Allowing you to enjoy all the views while we travel, I'll be your guide, photographer, and chauffeur throughout the trip. This also allows you to get comfortable with our roads first, should you decide to stick around for a little longer after our adventure!

From the moment we jump on our first call I'll start the planning process, coordinating your vendors, planning the timeline/routes, and sending your details about the ins and outs of eloping here, booking flights, applying for visas and securing your marriage licence.

___________________________________
As an expert I'll help you with all the legal bits and bobs taking away the stress and overwhelm. Figuring out accomodation and everything in between also doesn't need to feel scary, I'll help with all of that.
My values and Philosophy:
They're not just photos, they are precious memories and heirlooms
I believe in slowing down, being present, and creating an experience that lasts beyond one day.
Valuing real connection over posed perfection, capturing moments that feel honest and true.
Your wedding day should leave you feeling seen, confident and connected.
worried you'll feel awkward in front of the camera?
i get it, believe me
There have been plenty of times where I have felt the same way while having my photo taken, which is why I approach photography through a documentary style but also why activities on your elopement day are so important as it takes your mind off your photo being taken!
"Chaznel assisted us in organising everything we needed for our elopement and was on board with any of the silly ideas we had to have some fun.
If you are seeking a photographer in NZ, you cannot go past Chaznel. She is an amazing human being that will make you feel at ease and comfortable from the moment she speaks with you."
- Jamie + Kiri, Lake Tekapo Elopement
