Wellington Wedding Photographer | Waihoanga Centre, Kapiti Wedding | Warwick & Kensie

Posted on October 5, 2018 by candycapco

I think the Summer of 2018 is one that everybody who experienced it would be talking about for a very long time.
We were so fortunate that we were invited to document so many beautiful celebrations that season, and I am finally showing you one that I know I will not forget for a little while.
Warwick & Kensie’s day, to me, encapsulates what a wedding day should be.
It’s about laughing and celebrating the love that you have for each other with the people who mean the most to both of you.

Wellington Wedding Photographer | Brackenridge Wedding | Patrick & Isabelle

Posted on June 22, 2018 by candycapco

We did a crazy thing in January, where we photographed 4 weddings in a row, and 10 in total for the month of Jan.
I thought I would be exhausted and won’t have the energy and motivation to photograph the rest of our wedding season, but being around happy people really is contagious.

Patrick and Isabelle’s wedding was one of those weddings we photographed in January.
It was a little touch and go with the weather but when you’re surrounded by people who love you the most, and who are there to celebrate one of the happiest days of your life with you, who really cares if it rains a little right?

New Zealand Wedding Photographer | Wharekauhau Lodge Wedding | Mark & Glenda

Posted on May 31, 2018 by candycapco

Glenda and Mark celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary last Winter renewing their vows in front of their closest friends and family in the most quaint little church just outside of Martinborough, and I’m so happy that I’m finally able to share their photos with you.
I love how they still look at each other as if they just started dating yesterday. These two are ultimate couple goals!

Wellington Wedding Photographer | Couple Portrait Session | Isaac & Larissa

‘Like a river flows surely to the sea, darling, so it goes. Some things are meant to be.’
– Elvis Presley

They say that everything happens for a reason.
I think that fate has a way of bringing people into our lives.
Whether it be someone you choose to spend the rest of your life with or a friend you need at that point in your life.
For Isaac and Larissa, they strongly believe that fate brought them together 6 years ago.
They met at the perfect time, when both of them needed each other.
And since then they have been each other’s best friend and confidant.

Isaac and Larissa are some of the most gorgeous and genuine people I have had the pleasure of knowing through our photography journey.
And though I have worked with Larissa a number of times before, she’s the amazing lady behind The Leo Style, it was still so beautiful to see how the two of them interact with each other.
The way they laugh and hold each other is just proof that they were meant to be together.

Larissa’s engagement ring and wedding band are from Michael Hill
So is the rose gold ring she stacked with another delicate white gold ring

Wellington Wedding Photographer | Boomrock Wedding | Mike & Amie

Posted on September 4, 2017 by candycapco

I cannot believe how fast this year is flying.
When our wedding season ended, I had big plans of blogging the many beautiful weddings we documented last Summer, but somehow even our Winter just seemed busy.
I always get asked what my favourite venue is, and while I can’t single pick just one, because there’s just way too many beautiful places in Wellington and New Zealand in general – Boomrock is definitely high up on that list.

Mike and Amie celebrated their wedding with their closest family and friends in probably one of the most beautiful Summer days we had this year.
We all know people are still talking about the Summer that didn’t happen, but this this day was definitely an exception.
It was a perfect day filled with sunshine, laughter and love. Lots of it.

Rarotonga Wedding Photographer | Edgewater Resort Wedding | Felix & Kristina

Posted on July 19, 2017 by candycapco

We have always tried our best to limit the weddings that we shoot in the Wellington/Wairarapa region during the Summer season because as parents of a school kid,
it’s just easier.
However, we did the most traveling we’ve ever done in a wedding season this Summer because who in their right mind would really say NO to beautiful destination weddings?
Our mantra has always been ‘we will make it work’, and we did, with the help from our amazing village of friends and family who always have our backs.

Felix and Kristina’s wedding day was nothing short of perfect.
Not just on the wedding day itself, the days leading up to the wedding, doing all sorts of activities with their friends and family who traveled to celebrate with them, were just incredible.
It was raining really hard the day before the wedding, but on the day, despite the threatening dark clouds in the horizon, there was not a single drop of rain.
It was our first time in Rarotonga, and we loved every minute of being there. The island reminded me so much of the Philippines and we will definitely be back again.

Felix and Kristina, thanks again for taking us to this paradise-like place. It was so beautiful to witness you celebrate with your loved ones!
We wish you both a lifetime of many more awesome adventures!
Much love, Candy & Jay
