Rebecca & Lachie's wedding at Tarureka Estate, Wairarapa

Get to the chopper!
— Lachie & Rebecca

It’s Friday and you’re back for another episode of Dave snaps another wedding. Lachie and Becs and some classified lad antics, chats that I’ve redacted and plenty of choppers big and small making their way throughout the day.
I get asked a lot what makes a good wedding or what weddings are the best to shoot. For me it’s the people, all the GC I get to chat to and interact with. For Lachie and Becs, they surrounded themselves with plenty of GC. Pretty sure Charlotte is still locked in her room but the run home to Xmas is here, so as Arnie would say to santy, get in the chopper #davidle_nz @davidle_nz

Dushka & Matt at the Tree Church, Turiturimuri in Martinborough

Crights & Crights with a dash of yellow
— Dushka & Matt

Martinborough Tree Church

What a whirlwind of a week after shooting 3 events in 4 days and covering nearly 2000km on the road driving. The day before Dushka and Matt’s big day I ended up doing my back and couldn’t move or stand on my own power, fast forward 12 hours, plenty of painkillers later I got to capture one of my favourite weddings this year. Dashes of colour, plenty of yellow and the owner of the Tree Church venue in Turiturimuri Felicity (and mother of the bride) brining the energy and lols all day long.

Get ready with your pinterest boards and look books, because Dushka and Matt’s wedding is a stunner!

Another stunner wedding at Rose & Smith at Tauherenikau

Such a dreamy start to our season
— Rose & Smith

It’s saaaah good to be amongst the big big energy of weddings again. Winter still hasn’t done its dash but that hasn’t put a dampener on the wedding day vibes. I twas back at my second home @rose_and_smith for Georgia & Aiden’s schlick day.

From the boys welcoming me in with an ice cold beer to the beautifully husky ceremony by @marriedbyabbey the wedding day was amazing from start to finish. We even managed to sneak in a tiny first dance to kick off the dancefloor. Snaps on snaps of snaps, check’em out #davidle_nz @davidle_nz

The Landing at Homebush

Hamish and I met in high school through friends. We became friends first, hanging out together. Hamish made the first move by asking me out. We shared a couple of months secretly dating and fell in love over the Christmas holidays. After that, we came back for our senior year as a couple!
