Wanaka and Queenstown award winning wedding photographer interview Charlotte Kiri Epic Love Magazine. Find out more about us....
Going through two years of a pandemic has really made us realise the importance of capturing not just the epic mountains, but also the special people at your wedding. A pandemic makes you realise that life is so fleeting and those you love may not be around for ever. Which is why when you get married even though you may not want to do them, family photos at a wedding are actually important....

A bit of exciting news within our bubble today. Last year I entered the Top Emerging Photographer competition for Australasia with Capture magazine! There were so many amazing entries from throughout Ozzie and NZ and so I was blown away to find out I placed Top 10 twice!!!
I am so excited that Bruno and I will be heading along to the Find Your Wild Workshop hosted by our friends Wild & Grace in October 2020 to be a guest speaker among a talented line up of epic photographers like Jai Long from Free The Bird.
So stoked to have some of my wedding day Tricks and Tips in the latest January 2020 edition of New Zealand Weddings Magazine.

I recently entered two images in the Rise International Photography Awards. Out of thousands of entries across 6 categories both of my images were awarded, which I am beyond chuffed about. My photo of Daniel and Courtney wedding was awarded a 'Bronze Award' and my image of Solveig and Pedro was a FINALIST (top 20 images) and was awarded a 'Silver Award' in the Wedding Category. It is nerve wracking to put yourself out there for possible failure and to have your images critiqued by world class judges in a public arena, but I have found this such an incredible learning experience (few heart palpitations when my image came up for live judging). I am so chuffed to have my photos recognised on a international stage and be awarded from top international judges and masters in photography. x Charlotte Kiri
I am so chuffed to have my work featured on the amazing Together Journal. Rachel and Glenn's wedding was at the amazing Fiordland Lodge.

I am beyond chuffed to have my work alongside so many amazing and trend-setting weddings. You can see the full wedding HERE. x Charlotte
