Chris & Renee were married last Saturday in such a gorgeous setting! Guests walked down a winding path at Fountain Gardens in Tauranga, to find the ceremony location in the middle of a beautiful clearing set among lush native trees! It felt like a secret garden, and was incredibly special. Chris and Renee went to school together from the age of 7! Their Mums also teach together and are friends. Renee told me they didn’t start dating until many years later, when they ran into each other at a bar, and have now been together for 7 years!

I was so blessed to capture their amazing day. Casey from The Heirloom was doing the styling, so (as always) every detail was perfection. This girl is so talented! The marquee looked amazing, and like always I walked out with a huge grin on my face! After a month off, I was extra excited to photograph this wedding – my first of 2015. It was a stunner, I hope you enjoy. xx
