Bri, Seth and I met up one afternoon to yarn over a beer (or so) about their wedding. We got on to the topic of locations for their pics and the potential use of a chopper was mentioned.
My eyes lit up
Northburn, their venue, is nestled in a valley surrounded by the kind of scenery I cry out for. Barren, open moorland with gnarled rocky Tors, think Dartmoor in the UK, with a dash of NZ/Iceland thrown in.
I get super excited when there’s an opportunity to do some shooting in new and interesting locations. I spend hours pouring over Google Earth and looking at topographic maps for interesting spots. And there was so much on hand, I knew we were on to a winner.
Bri and Seth’s wedding didn’t disappoint, it was a cracker of a day. And yeah we were pretty stoked with the locations we found.
Here’s a wee look at what I encountered…
