BEHIND THE LENS
Documentary Wedding Photographer based in New Zealand
My approach to photography is rooted in a deep respect for genuine moments. The quiet glances, unspoken connections, and unguarded emotions that give each celebration its true meaning. Whether it’s an intimate elopement or a larger gathering surrounded by loved ones, I seek to capture the essence of each story with honesty and care. From the olive groves and coastal villages of Puglia to meaningful places closer to home, I document moments as they unfold, naturally and without pretence. The result is a thoughtful, authentic collection of images that reflect the essence of your day and the people who made it meaningful.

I photograph with a quiet presence, unobtrusive yet deeply attentive.
My warm, observant approach allows me to notice the in-between moments:
a fleeting expression, a subtle gesture, the details that often go unseen.
I believe that building trust with my couples creates space for deeper, more honest imagery. Whether I’m traveling across the world or just down the road,
I bring the same care, curiosity, and eye for genuine connection to every story I document. The final gallery is thoughtfully curated to reflect not only how your day looked, but how it truly felt. Honest, layered, and deeply personal.

Aimee is an absolute legend. It was important for us to have an experienced photographer for our big day and Aimee was exactly that. She matched our (and our guests) energy at all the right moments and it showed - the photos she produced were authentic, emotional and candid. She flew all the way to Greece for our wedding, and also joined us for our pre wedding boat day. We highly, highly recommend Aimee. She went above and beyond on so many things and our day wouldn't have been the success it was if we didn't have her there.
Aimee is an absolute legend. It was important for us to have an experienced photographer for our big day and Aimee was exactly that. She matched our (and our guests) energy at all the right moments and it showed - the photos she produced were authentic, emotional and candid. She has an awareness for the little details and moments that many people would miss. One of our most treasured moments from the day was when she poured us both a glass of champagne (despite carrying three cameras) and told us to take a second to let it all soak in. We stood and watched our loved ones chatting away and celebrating and it is something we will both never forget.
She flew all the way to Greece for our wedding, and also joined us for our pre wedding boat day. It honestly felt like she was another guest. She fit in so effortlessly with our loved ones and made everyone feel so comfortable. Again, the photos speak for themselves. She managed to capture all the pre wedding excitement on both digital and film during the boat day and we can't stop looking at them. We highly, highly recommend Aimee. She went above and beyond on so many things and our day wouldn't have been the success it was if we didn't have her there.

Aimee was an absolute dream to work with, she has this calmness about her that puts you at ease instantly! Aimee's creative style and work is undeniably beautiful and it's her ability to capture posed yet natural moments that impressed us the most! We had high expectations of our photos based on Aimee's previous work and she easily exceeded them; she captured the colours, the light and our vibe perfectly. We also had our wedding images featured in the beautiful Hello May publication which was so nice to see. You will not be disappointed.

Aimee is a dream wedding photographer! She was fun to work with while maintaining professionalism, which made our day run smoothly. From the start, her communication was excellent and helped us feel relaxed. Before the wedding, she took the time to understand the look we wanted, scouting locations with us to make sure everything was perfect. Despite the gloomy weather, Aimee captured our day beautifully. Our photos exceeded our expectations and will be cherished forever. I highly recommend Aimee to every bride and groom!

Aimee is the perfect blend of professional and relaxed. You feel completely confident that she has everything covered, yet her personal approach makes her adaptable to any situation, taking all the stress away. She feels more like a friend than a photographer, and her talent is unmatched—her photos are world-class. Looking back at our photos, they perfectly capture the happiest day of my life, with the candid shots reflecting exactly how the day felt.

Where do we start with Aimee. We cannot say enough amazing things about her. From our very first conversation, Aimee was warm, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. On our wedding day, Aimee managed to be everywhere without ever feeling intrusive, capturing every laugh, tear, and magical moment in between. And the results… chefs kiss.
Aimee understood the brief and delivered the goods. It was a long process trying to find the right photographer and style that we were looking for and we’re forever grateful we chose her!
