Just before Christmas last year, Nic and George got married at Black
Barn in Havelock North and I had the pleasure to photograph their
special day. I met both of them a couple of weeks ago, on their return
from London where they had been living for a few years. I instantly
felt comfortable with them, they were happy, laid back, smiley, just
charming. And this is exactly how I would describe their wedding. I
spent a lovely day with them. Everything went smoothly, nic and george
were so relaxed and every one around them felt that nice vibe. Here are
some of the photos of their wedding. They are quite ecclectic, as some
were taken in the Black Barn vineyards and others at one of my
favourite shops in Havelock North, Blue Moon (owned by Lorraine and
Sandra, two lovely ladies who I have got to know lately through several
photo shoots at their shop, more on these in later posts).
Juste
avant Noel l'année derniere, j'ai eu le plaisir de photographier le
mariage de Nic et George, deux néo-zélandais qui habitaient jusqu'alors a
Londres. Je les ai rencontrés seulement deux semaines avant le grand
jour et j'ai immédiatement succombée a leur charme. Ces deux jeunes
personnes allaient se marier a Black Barn a Havelock North dans l'ile du
nord de la Nouvelle Zelande, et ils étaient heureux, souriants et
extremement relax.
Voici quelques photos de leur mariage. Elles
sont assez éclectiques dû au fait qu'ils avaient chois deux endroits
totalement différents pour les photos: les vignobles de Black Barn et un
magasin de mobilier et de jolies choses pour la maison tres intéressant, comme vous le verrez sur les
photos.
Enjoy!
Hi all,
Here is my second very exciting news that's just happening right now - last year I received a phone call from Rebecca Kain, the owner of Redcurrent (www.redcurrent.co.nz), asking me to take the photos for the coffee table book she was intending to write that same year. 2012/2013 were two amazing years that saw me visiting some grand, old, sensational houses and photographing them, or aspects of them. I'd never worked on such a huge project, and I loved every minute of it, seriously every minute.
And the book is now on the shelves for sale, as from 30 September 2013. Rebecca kindly had a copy of the book courried to me last week, and I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened the box and held the book in my hands for the first time - all the photos in there I remembered taking, with all the stories that came with them (some very funny!!). My photos, how cool!!!
That's the book!!
There was even a big article with a photo from the book on the front page of Viva, the NZ Herald's wednesday magazine, with my name (yes!!) mentioned in it. As you can see, i'm pretty happy about it, I suppose it's not every day your work is published...anywhere!!! lol
if i'm allowed to, I will post some photos of the book here soon.
take care in the meantime
xx
