Rippon Hall, Wanaka

Good Light, Great People, Perfect Day

Honestly? It's hard to go wrong when your wedding venue is Rippon Hall with the Southern Alps as a backdrop and Lake Wanaka doing its thing in the distance.

It was a classic Wanaka summer day — sunny, warm, but not too hot and just generally epic. The kind of day where everyone's in a good mood and the whole thing just flows. We kept things relaxed not going too far for photos — let the day breathe — catching the candid moments, the laughs, the sneaky happy tears, and all the little in-between bits that make a wedding day feel like your wedding day.

A seriously good one.

From the couple - “Hi Mickey

WOW!!! These photos are absolutely incredible. Sam and I love them so much. We are so, so happy with them. I love the style/look. It's proving very difficult to choose our favourites.

You really have captured the day perfectly. We were both slightly unsure how we would go with wedding photos thinking it might feel a little awkward. You made us both feel very comfortable. I also never felt like you were intrusive on the day, you just moved about seamlessly.

We honestly couldn't be happier and wanted to say a big, big thank you to you!! “
