CONGRATULATIONS – You’re getting Married!
Based in Tapanui, I cover weddings across Southland and Otago, specializing in artistic and documentary-style wedding photography. My goal is simple yet impactful: to capture your story in stunning images that truly reflect the magic of your day.
From our first meeting, my focus is entirely on your experience. With a creative eye and a unique artistic vision, I aim to document the authentic story of your wedding, naturally and unobtrusively. Blending into the background, letting the moments unfold, so you can fully enjoy the wonder of your wedding day without distraction.
While I may offer subtle guidance when needed, my primary role is to observe and capture real moments as they happen—seeking out beautiful light, genuine emotions, and those fleeting moments that make your day unique.
I’m passionate about life, love, and the individuality of each celebration I’m lucky enough to be a part of. It would be a privilege to capture the essence of your special day.

Celebrant Hannah Lind
Hey I’m Hannah the celebrant, to me, romance is when my husband gives me the last piece of chocolate cake, even if it’s his.
My job as celebrant is to celebrate your real world love - whatever that means to you. You get to choose whether that means a bespoke ceremony written for and about you (I promise to guide you through this process with minimal stress involved), or you’d rather choose a pre-written ceremony.
I travel all around the South Island, all couples welcome.
If I sound like someone you’d like to have on your team on your wedding day, you can learn a bit more about me and get in touch via my website.
