Here’s a quick preview of a model-portfilio shoot that I did with Tav a couple of weeks ago.

Justine and Rowan are one of those interesting couples you meet sometimes that surprise you. I’m not sure quite what I was expecting when I first met them, but whatever it was, it wasn’t the crazy couple that I spent the evening photographing! They both have so much personality and quirkiness that they made the whole shoot really relaxed and fun. Countless shots were ruined due to one or both of them cracking up or making stupid faces!

We met for a coffee at my local (fantastic) Elements Cafe before heading down to Lyall Bay for some shots of Justine and Rowan on the little boardwalk jetty, walking down the beach, and trying to find shelter from the southerly in the sand dunes. When the sun got low enough, we headed around the coast a little to Island Bay for some sunset shots.

As a side-note, after we finished up, my beautiful assistant and I headed into Island Bay shops looking for food and discovered The Cheeky Pipi. The pasta and the seafood chowder was INCREDIBLE! We managed to avoid the rowdy drunken teachers who were dancing out the back, fortunately. Check them out if you’re in Island Bay foraging for food.

Thanks to Justine and Rowan for such a fun e-session. And congratulations on your engagement!

Thanks for having a look. Don’t forget to leave a comment
