A day in the life of Maia // Portraits

This is my awesome friend Maia and the other day we strolled the streets of Hamilton and took some photos for fun. A fun fact about us is we often get mistaken for the same person or sisters!

NEW ZEALAND pt 2 // 2014

Time has gone so fast.  I've been here now for almost 5 months.  Wow.  I have since moved to Hamilton from Taranaki and i'm settling in with my new family, exploring the areas nearby and found a new church!   
Here are a few photos from my further travels.  This country is just breathtaking.  I love it.

OLIVIA // BRIDAL FASHION PORTRAITS

This shoot, what can i say?  I loved everything about it, the light filled space, the simple beautiful dress, the handcrafted flowers and our gorgeous model all really helped pull this off.  So myself & Tara had been planning a shoot for before I left for NZ for ages and it finally happened.  Here are some of the photos from the shoot!
