"Chaznel was the most beautiful photographer, her gentle nature put my husband Jarrod and I completely at ease."
The one behind the packages:
Hey, I'm Chaznel, the photographer, planner, coordinator and chauffeur... basically your new adventure bestie!
I get that one of the biggest reasons you've chosen to elope is to avoid the stress of planning and ditch tradition so that's exactly what I'll help you do. From planning your locations, timelines and activities we'll have your day looking exactly how you picture without all the back and forth fuss.
Just some of the perk to working with me:
Location Scouting:
Through the planning process we narrow down the locations you'd like to elope/adventure in and closer to the day I head out to scout the exact perfect spots that offer secluded scenery for just the two of you.
24 hour sneak peeks:
Who wants to wait weeks before they get to see their elopement photos, I deliver a collection of between 100-150 photos within 24 hours of your day for you to enjoy and share with family and friends.
Essential vendors:
Each of my elopement packages include a New Zealand registered celebrant for your ceremony, a seasonal bridal bouquet and a seasonal boutonniere - fresh or dried.
On the Day Chauffeuring:
Keeping things stress-free on the day I will pick you both up from your BnB and chauffeur you from location to location throughout the day so you can enjoy the sightseeing from start to finish!
Vendor's + Activities Guide:
Apart from including the essential vendors in your elopement package, I'll give you a comprehensive personalised elopement guide exploring accommodation, activities, eateries and more so you no longer have waste precious time on google searching!
Timeline Planning:
During the lead up to your elopement day we'll work out the best timeline for your day allowing for time to relax and enjoy the moment, whilst also making the most of your time here in New Zealand.

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!
