Wedding Photography Collections
After photographing more than 800 weddings over two decades, I’ve learned that the story of a wedding day rarely fits neatly into a fixed number of hours.
My collections are not priced by the hour but by the experience and storytelling approach I bring to your day.
You are investing in the calm presence, intuition and judgement that comes from photographing hundreds of weddings and knowing how to anticipate moments before they happen.
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY COLLECTIONS
My collections are curated to suit a range of budgets and priorities, however as a guide, most couples invest between $5,800 and $6,700 for complete wedding day storytelling coverage.
1.WEDDING STORY - $4,995
Full storytelling coverage from preparations through to the beginning of your reception.
This collection captures the anticipation of the getting ready, the ceremony, family and friends gathering, and the creative portraits that reflect the atmosphere of the day.
Coverage typically runs around six hours, depending on how your day unfolds.
Includes:
• professional editing of approximately 650+ photographs
• high-resolution digital files
• private online gallery for download and sharing
• personal consultation to help plan the flow of your day.
2.WEDDING STORY + CELEBRATION - $5,845
Most popular
Complete storytelling coverage including the reception.
Capturing speeches, sunset portraits (weather permitting), first dance and the celebration with your guests allows the full story of the day to unfold naturally.
Includes everything in the Wedding Story collection plus:
evening reception coverage until all the dance floor action is captured.
professional editing of approximately 750+ photographs
Most couples choose this option so the day is documented from the quiet moments of the morning through to the energy of the celebration. This collection typically runs for around nine hours.
3.WEDDING STORY + CELEBRATION + SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER, $6,695
Two photographers capturing the day from different perspectives.
This collection is ideal for larger weddings, multiple locations, or when you want real-time preparations of both partners. It allows more candid moments to be captured throughout the day and provides multiple viewpoints of key moments.
Includes everything in the Wedding Story + Celebration collection plus:
second photographer from preparations until the start of the reception.
professional editing of approximately 900+ photographs
OPTIONAL ENHANCEMENTS ON THE DAY
These options allow you to personalise how your day is documented.
First Look Creative Session with couple and bridal party, $495
A relaxed portrait session before the ceremony, beginning with a romantic, emotional and private reveal. Many couples choose this option because it allows more time with guests later in the day and creates beautiful, natural moments before the ceremony and allows you to share more of your wedding day together, at locations that might not be practical to get to later on.
Ceremony Film, $550
A simple fixed-camera documentary recording of your ceremony so you can relive the vows and atmosphere of the moment. See FILM page for further info.
Ceremony + Speeches + First Dance Film, $950
A longer documentary recording of the most meaningful moments of the day, capturing the voices, laughter and atmosphere that photographs alone cannot convey. See FILM page for further info
Additional Coverage $275/hour
If your plans extend beyond the typical schedule, additional coverage can be added.
All prices include GST.
BEFORE AND AFTER…
ALBUMS, $1550 ($1350 with credit)
Finish your story in the same beautiful way you've captured it, and get your album designed by the person who knows your images best - me. My albums are handcrafted in New Zealand by Queensberry - widely considered one of the world's top album companies, and available only to professional photographers.
I really believe a professional album is the right way to finish your story and honour the investment you made in a top photographer, which is why I include a $200 credit towards an album for all my couples when it’s paid for along with the photography.
Unveiled Boudoir Session $1050.
Includes:
A studio session with 3-4 outfits
30 retouched, high resolution digital boudoir images
A beautiful print portfolio with 15 retouched 5x7” fine art prints
My unveiled shoots are private, sexy, tasteful and loads of fun. They make the perfect gift to present to your husband-to-be the night before the wedding, and the shoot can be timed to make the most of your hair and makeup trail. Visit the 'unveiled' page and see what some of my brides have to say about the experience. And remember - this isn't for brides who look like models. You are already the most beautiful woman in the world to your future husband. This is about capturing you and your body in a way that makes you even more confident (and hot!) in his eyes.
Engagement Session
There can be a big gap between your engagement and celebrating your wedding. Engagement photography captures you as a couple in a relaxed, informal way at that special time. It is also a great way to spend some time with me so you feel more confident getting photographed on your wedding day.
Option 1: Any season, any location, anywhere* in Hawke’s Bay: $895.
Option 2: Off-season (May-September), at a location chosen by Eva. $695.
Please note: e-sessions aren’t available on weekends.
*Within 50km of Napier.
Elopements, Small Weddings and Registry Weddings - from $1,550
Includes:
Ceremony, group photos, short creative session for 1-3hours depending on your wedding format.
Professional editing of approximately 150-350 photographs depending on your day.
Weekdays all year or off-peak weekends only (June-September)
Please get in touch to talk about how an elopement or small wedding photography experience could work for you. I can help with timeline planning and share some example galleries.
Out of Town Weddings
While I am mostly a Hawke’s Bay photographer and love shooting in the place I grew up, I also enjoy exploring new creative spaces, especially those off the beaten path. I choose two weddings each season to shoot outside Hawke’s Bay to fulfil my love of new places and creativity. There is no travel charge for weddings an hour or less drive time from Napier.
1-2hrs travel = $250. No overnight stay required provided locations are scouted in the morning before coverage begins (and discussed prior).
2-4hrs travel = $650 incl. overnight stay prior to the wedding to avoid potential travel delays (road closures etc) impacting wedding and to scout locations.
If I’m booked for the reception, a second night’s accommodation is charged at $250.
BOOKING
I photograph a limited number of weddings each year so that every couple receives the time and care their story deserves.
I’m drawn to weddings where the focus is on family, connection and celebrating the day in a way that feels genuine and meaningful.
If this approach resonates with you, I would love to hear about your plans.
Please get in touch to check availability and we can arrange a chat, either over Zoom, WhasApp or in person if you’re local.
