Tim and Hannah Ruapuke Beach Engagement

I absolutely love Ruapuke and the west coast beached for thier black volcanic sands and the wild untamed natural landscapes, it just speaks to my heart and soul so when Tim and Hannah booked for an engagement shoot and said how much they loved it out there, I jumped a the chance to to head out one evening and capture some photos for them. The weather was perfect with the most amazing light towards to the end of the shoot and had so much fun … Ruapuke did not disappoint….!!

James and Clare Raglan beach maternity session

Anyone that has followed my photography for a while knows how much I love photographing weddings, families and maternity sessions out at Raglan beach, Evening shoots at sunset can bring the most gorgeous soft dreamy light and I simply love it when clients just like James and Clare come to me wanting maternity photos and let themselves be guided by me as to time and location of the shoot and Clare chose the stunning golden gown from my collection to wear and carefully consulting with me as to James wardrobe and how to match his outfit with the gown…. and arriving at our chosen meet up spot in plenty of time so we could touch base and chat…. I simply cant wait to meet back up with these guys soon once baby has arrived for their in home lifestyle baby shoot with family traveling from the UK to meet the new arrival.. !

Raglan beach and the amazing golden sunsets. Just dreamy !
