Relaxed, candid engagement and pre-wedding sessions across Auckland and New Zealand — capturing real connection, without the pressure of posing.
Whether it’s the place you got engaged, your favourite coffee spot, or somewhere new altogether, the goal is the same: real moments between you two, captured honestly.
Most engagement sessions feel awkward — standing in a park, being told to “look natural” while forcing a smile. I never wanted that for my couples.
Instead, I follow you. We pick a place that actually means something to you — where you got engaged, your favourite coffee spot, a beach you keep going back to — and I just document you being together. Walking, talking, laughing at something only you two find funny.
That’s the real you. And those are the photos you’ll actually want on your wall — not the stiff, posed ones, but the ones that feel like a memory.
Engagement and pre-wedding sessions can be booked as a standalone shoot, or added on as part of your wedding photography package.
Sessions typically run 1-2 hours and can take place anywhere that feels right for you — a favourite local spot, a scenic location, or somewhere meaningful to your story.
Get in touch and I’ll send through pricing and available dates.

1.5 hours, up to two locations, one outfit change, 50+ edited digital images, online gallery, ideal for couples who want a bit more variety and time to relax into the shoot.
2+ hours, up to three locations, two outfit changes, 80+ edited digital images, online gallery, plus a complimentary 8x10 fine art print — best suited for pre-wedding sessions or couples wanting a fuller, more cinematic set of images.
Anywhere that feels meaningful to you — a favourite beach, a local park, the spot you got engaged, or even your own backyard. We can also suggest scenic locations across Auckland if you're not sure where to start.
Sessions typically run between 1 to 2+ hours depending on the package you choose, giving plenty of time to relax into the shoot without feeling rushed.
It depends on your package — some sessions include one or two outfit changes. Even a simple change from casual to slightly dressed-up can give your gallery more variety.What if we feel awkward in front of the camera?
Completely normal, and honestly most couples do at first. Because we shoot candidly rather than directing poses, that awkwardness usually disappears within the first 10–15 minutes once you settle in.
Yes, engagement and pre-wedding sessions can be booked completely standalone — no wedding booking required.
If you book one of our top wedding photography packages, your engagement session is included at no extra cost. Otherwise, it can be added on or booked separately at any time.
Let’s coordinate schedules to ensure our availability aligns with your wedding date. We recommend securing your photography appointment well in advance to guarantee our dedicated focus on your special day.
