On the road again, continuing north. As is typical in New Zealand, your next adventure is just around the corner. We stumbled upon an area called Buller Gorge. We found New Zealand’s longest swingbridge, at 110m long. The kids loved it – I was terrified! We walked over, and then the kids did the cometline...

Franz Josef and Fox Glaciers, Hotikika & Punakaiki, South Island /New Zealand – Day 4
I was really looking forward to this. 30 minute helicopter ride with a glacier landing? Oh yes.
We woke up to near white out conditions on the glaciers, meaning no helicopter ride for us. However, it cleared slightly after about thirty minutes and we were able to go up. We probably should have opted...
Drive up the west coast of South Island / New Zealand – Day 3
Yes, we’re crazy. Day 3 in New Zealand, and we drove several hours up the west coast of the South Island. We love a good road trip. This is a LONG drive, but one that is well worth doing. Our destination this night was Franz Josef, which is a 7 mile long glacier located in...
Milford Sound & Queenstown, South Island / New Zealand, Day 2

Milford Sound is a fjord in the south west of the South Island, just inland of the Tasman Sea. The plane trip from Queenstown takes about 20-25 minutes instead of driving 4 plus hours ONE WAY in a bus. We didn’t have much time so we opted for...

What an amazing place. I will...

Some of my favorite people! I completely thought I already blogged this, but apparently it was in my draft folder for a month. Oops.
Merry Christmas!
Hope you are all enjoying a fabulous holiday season! I am so excited to spend some time with my family after a CRAZY busy season. I have to admit, this is the first year I thought about NOT doing holiday cards as I got so busy I didn’t really make quality time for ours. Unbelievable…...
Hi there!
A quick favorite of mine from a recent shoot… It will be quiet here for a bit, while I get to finishing up holiday orders! Not to mention actually starting to think about my own holiday cards and Christmas shopping!
Card affiliate – MINTED
I offer lots of custom cards in different papers, shapes and sizes. However, some of you choose to purchase your digital negatives and want to do your own cards. Or, some clients want to pay a small fee, and have me email one or several of your images to a card company. I do this...
