Kristen & Matthew – Karekare Waterfall Elopement

Kristen and Matthew chose to celebrate their love with a small and intimate elopement at Karekare Waterfall, one of Auckland’s most stunning natural backdrops. During the Covid season, they were surrounded by just their closest loved ones—both sets of parents and their son—making the moment even more meaningful and heartfelt. After the ceremony, we have photos at Karekare Beach, where the dramatic cliffs and wild black sand created the perfect setting for their story. A beautiful reminder that even the simplest weddings can be unforgettable.
