Chasing dreams and fulfilling a mission to tell beautifully unique wedding day stories.

Hey, I’m Peter, a Canterbury wedding photographer. The overwhelming desire of my work and passion is to create honest smiles; to embrace every ounce of positive energy and channel it into your images. My goal is to deliver soulful and natural wedding photography, whilst simultaneously developing a trusting relationship between subject and lens. Each occasion I document is unique and I aim to capture the wishes of each client in every individual shot. Your story is my story, your journey, mine, and I hope to join you on your adventure; to capture your untold wedding tale in the beautifully crafted, vintage style that you deserve. To picture how I would like to tell your story, take a peek here at other pages of my storybook – love stories so beautiful, they will go down in legend, just like the classic love stories we all know and love. There can never be a formula for great wedding photography; each subject is brimming with an organic intrigue that the photographer must uncover and refine (and with the stunning countryside we’re treated with, there’s so much to work with!) So pull up a chair, grab a cuppa and together, let’s talk and discover where your story will take us…

  • Wohooo! Our pictures have arrived... It’s us!! So damn proud to be part of this duo. Yep, she’s the best of friends that’s always there when you need to talk. The best supporter of any achievement made, and the first to save a memento of accomplishments however small, she has the biggest heart I’ve ever known and living life at her side is a TOTAL privilege! And then there’s the amazing pictures taken by Kati Hoy, she’s one heck of a talent and captured our personalities so friggin’ perfectly.. can’t wait to share more. Kati you rock, and my god, so much fun to hang with!! Thank you!!
  • And off they gooo... There’s something about hitting the “send” button when you’re sending over a new set of pictures. It’s just bursting with soooo many different emotions! Excitement, check. Nerves, check. Feeling pretty damn proud, double check! :) Each and every time it’s exactly the same. Quite the rollercoaster but I wouldn’t change it for the world!
  • How to really kick of a perfect weekend... early morning misty woods with these two awesome people. That’ll do nicely!! The countdown for their gorgeous countryside spring wedding is officially on!!
  • And that’s a wrap, woop!! Putting the final few finishing touches to editing the amazing wedding story of these two, before they head out in the mail over the Atlantic, because let's face it we all love receiving a big package in the mail, right!?
  • Some places you can just never get sick of photographing… it could even be the same photograph on each visit. But there’s something about capturing it in that specific moment. It’s aged ever so slightly, a different light, a different season, but you’re always so happy you hit that shutter button again. :) where’s one of your fave places to photograph in the world?
  • I always love the start of the year, it feels so fresh, don’t you think? Like a totally clean slate. And one of the best bits of it, which I was busy working on when in San Diego, is goal setting! I find it so friggin’ important to see what direction I want the business to take each year and how to get there. It’s going to be a mighty big year, but my word, I’m SO excited about where everything is headed, eeeeek!! But also, i’m finding its about how best to conquer the hurdles that seem to reappear in front of me year on year. The self doubt, the work/life balance etc.. Speaking to some of my photography friends of late, it’s making me more aware that tackling them head on and actually properly talking about them is going to be one of the best things about this coming year! So here goes.
  • I never thought you could actually miss an Ocean, sounds whack right? But my god… the Pacific!
  • Just what Sunday’s are made for! Fooling around in the sand with your love, the tide lapping at your feet while the sun slowly sets behind you. Total bliss!! Have the best start to the week!!
