So, I decided a little while ago that I needed a change; something different, a new approach for this next trailer. Every wedding and couple is different: they have their own story, personality, reasons of being where they are now and I would love for every trailer I edit to be a peek into their story. For Jess and Hamish, what I remember from getting to know them was the story of how they met: in a bar in Santa Monica watching the All Blacks play. She is from LA, he is from Auckland. And it all began in California. And with a recent trip to Venice Beach, I was able to film the very bridge he proposed...

First, I cannot thank Claire and Daniel enough for believing in us and giving us the opportunity to capture their fantastic day. It was truly magical and as Claire later admitted to me: the best day of her life. Considering we spent the major part of that day together (that is often what happens with your photography or cinematography team), I was happy to know that we helped make their experience fun and yes, magical. For an Autumn day in Auckland, the weather was amazing. The perfect warmth, the perfect sun and the perfect light colour. I don't think as a bride, you could hope for better...

Bubblerock has really been such an adventure ever since we have started it. I will never forget our trip to Mexico, for example where we got to meet incredible people and capture one amazing wedding. Mel and Mark's wedding has always been such a personal favourite. We also have had the pleasure to capture love more locally but full of tradition, love, colours, emotions: I cannot forget Payal & Yohan's colourful two-day wedding or the French-Kiwi affair down on the Kapiti Coast. But more recently, bubblerock took us to San Diego and we had a blast. Not only did we get to work with crazy-talented...

Today, I am sharing with you my love of cinemagraphs. In fact, it is a fascination and I hope I have the time to create more of those in the future (remember my post about having more time to do fun/creative projects: this is one of them). I got inspired sometime last year when I saw this. I mean, come on: how cool and polish are those. Fascinating. We have been keeping this post for the rainy days but as I have been wanting to share these images for quite some time: well now is as good as any other time (and our friend Jono inspired us to share ours when he shared his first attempt tonight). We...

This film is by far one of the favourites films I have made so far. I just love how perfect the light, the movements, the soft focus here and there worked to create a sunkissed and very "organic" piece. I have fortunate enough to film the Herb and Daisy shoot for the talented team of Mag Rouge: a featured shoot for their second magazine. With such a talented team of stylist, florist, photographers, make up artist... it could go wrong. screenshot from the film But to me, it went even BETTER than good. I have to admit: I am in love. And I hope you love this little film as much as I do. Head...

So... you may or may not know yet but I have taken the biggest leap of them all and will in two weeks be solely focusing on growing bubblerock. Over the last few months, I have been juggling two jobs, doing 14-hour days, 7 days a week yet not being able to go through the workload I have been having. The decision was first a necessity and realistically, I couldn't keep going at that pace for much longer before totally burning out. Luckily for me: I love what I am doing. So it is now full time bubblerock time and it means I will finally be able to finish all I have started and take on some...

She always have some fantastic ideas and is never afraid of trialing them out for brides and then sharing her knowledge, tips and tricks to make of your next event something truly special and personal, full of Lovely Little Details.

Courtney and Matt met in London, got engaged in Morocco and decided to get married back in New Zealand (where Courtney is from) in beautiful Hahei. Courtney put so much effort into crafting her wedding all the way to making her own bouquets with her bridesmaids the day before. It was a labour of love, with lots of personal touches and a two individuals with such a fun, fiery personality. I mean, really, judge by yourselves, yeah?
