Nothing like a confetti toss to nail@your Isle exit!!!

They say rain on your wedding day is good luck …if that’s true, Hayley and Jamie are now the luckiest couple in Christchurch. Their wedding day was less “clear skies and sunshine” and more “Noah’s Ark chic,” but honestly? It only made the day more memorable (and hilarious).

The morning started with a torrential downpour that could’ve drowned an umbrella. Spirits, however, were in dampened. Then, miraculously, the weather gods must’ve swiped right on romance because the clouds parted just long enough for Hayley and Jamie’s first look in the city. For one golden, rain-free hour, the world sparkled …wet pavements glistened, the couple looked incredible, and passersby smiled like they were extras in a romantic movie montage.

Then the rain returned. With enthusiasm.

Thankfully, The Tannery provided the perfect refuge …elegant, atmospheric, and dry (mostly). Guests arrived slightly soggy but full of laughter, umbrellas in every corner like badges of survival. The ceremony itself was pure magic: heartfelt vows echoing under the glass roof, the sound of rain providing an oddly perfect soundtrack.

By the end of the night, no one cared about the weather — everyone was too busy dancing, laughing, and celebrating the fact that love, apparently, is waterproof.

After 19 years in the wedding industry I feel keeping up with the latest trends and reinventing yourself to stay current is tiring AF lets be honest, however in saying that "Styled Shoots" have always been a favourite in showcasing what's hot on the circuit at any given time.

With the usual suspects in tow this may be one of my favourites to date...

With many a shoot under our belt and years of working alongside Lisa Dermott owner of Brides of Merivale we yet again managed to produce some pretty swish images.

“For this collaboration shoot we showcased a modern vibe within local Christchurch venues. With the weather thwarting our initial plan to be outside, our favourite professionals pulled together to create stunning images. The result shows no matter what the day, if you have the right professionals behind you nothing can ruin your day.”

Goodness gracious not again!

Every photographer’s favorite question: “Can I have the RAW files?”

For the uninitiated, RAW files are the photo equivalent of a sack of unpeeled potatoes. They’re flat, grey, and basically useless unless you know what to do with them.

When a client asks, what they really mean is:
“I trust your years of training… but also, I downloaded a TikTok preset once.”

Handing over RAW files would be like…Asking a chef for uncooked chicken instead of dinner.
Asking a baker for wet dough instead of a cake. Asking your hairstylist for the bag of clippings.

The product isn’t the RAW—it’s the edit. The magic. The finished meal. Because trust me, the unedited version of your wedding does not look like a Pinterest board. More like a Soviet bus station.

So next time you’re tempted to ask… just don’t. Leave the RAWs to the nerds.
