RHEA RODRIGUES
Co-founder, Photographer & Videographer
My journey of documenting moments and weddings started back home in Canada and continues on in New Zealand. And I found a way to marry my love for Spain, Music and Photography as I worked on and shot Flamenco Spanish dance performances. The drama, emotion and colour was more than I could have visually asked for..
And then I shot my first wedding in Toronto, Canada and... I fell head over heels with Weddings and I knew documenting a couple's special day through Photography was my calling. It was everything I expected, loved and imagined - if you've met me you'll soon learn I'm straight out of a Danielle Steel romance novel or an Audrey Hepburn Roman Holiday...I love LOVE.
My Wedding Packages are designed to suit your needs, with options that include Couple Photography and Wedding Videography as I know how important it is to capture the essence of your love story in every photo and video. My Photography is inspired by natural and timeless imagery that reflect the true personalities and experiences of each couple’s wedding.
A few things about me:
- I have travelled to 41 countries across the globe (and I'm not even close to done). When I'm not shooting, I'm planning my next vacation & getaway!
- True Crime - When I'm editing your Wedding Gallery, I'm often in the company of a gripping crime Netflix documentary.
- I'm a true, blue and sappy romantic and my favourite movie of all time is "Sleepless in Seattle". So don't be surprised if I have a tear or two glistening during your ceremony.
My Favourite Moment of a Wedding:
Definitely the first look - whether it's the traditional route or at an intimate setting with just the two of you. The moment is literally everything I live for whether it's gush of tears or a series of giggles - first looks are so emotion packed, I'm all there for it and I'm also tearing up with you!

The Love Story Begins
In 2020, I stumbled upon the incredible Rhea Rodrigues and, well, let's just say, sparks flew. Little did I know that supporting Rhea in her dream to conquer the world of wedding photography would lead me to embrace the captivating world of storytelling weddings as well.
I often find myself saying (out loud sometimes) "Rhea is my best friend" and with Rhea by my side, we've got a knack for freezing those candid moments in time – the laughter, the stolen glances, the unscripted magic that makes your heart skip a beat. I don't just capture; I craft cinematic experiences that transport you back to the very essence of your special day.
A few facts about me:
- I love a good one beer and I'm always up for beer tastings. At the end of a long day, a Corona and an action thriller Netflix series is where you will find me.
- Long Drives - Call me my family's designated driver but I'm also a lover of long drives particularly those that end with capturing a timelapse of a Sunset
- My second love (after Rhea) is my guitar and my go-to song when I want to swoon her is Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton
My Favourite Moment in a Wedding:
The moments in between, the intimate glances during your ceremony, the heartfelt laugh out loud moments during speeches - those are the moments I cherish and are definitely are some of my favourite moments of a Wedding. I'm that sneaky candid photographer capturing those out-of-box, unplanned wedding moments
TESSA PATON
Associate Photographer
I fell in love with photography at uni where I studied fine arts, and I'm drawn to capturing vibrant images of people that have a natural, spontaneous feel to them. I’ve been capturing weddings for over five years now and feel so honoured to be a part of each one. From the excitement of getting ready, to all the feels that happen at the ceremony and then partying it up at the reception - each part of the day is so special!
A few facts about me:
- When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me going on road trips exploring our beautiful country, surfing badly, attempting to meet my goodreads reading goal, playing hockey, and loosing my voice singing karaoke
- I will always pick a hot chocolate over coffee
- I grew up on a farm on the east coast of Northland and my favourite animals are cows and sheep
My Favourite Moment in a Wedding:
There are so many highlights at a wedding - it’s so tough choosing just one! But the moment right after the ceremony, once you’ve officially tied the knot and are swarmed with congratulations by your loved ones is right up there for me. As well as all the big important moments, I also love to pay attention to the quiet, unplanned, and documentary bits at weddings.
We love random chats about life, traveling and creating art. When we meet, we can promise you 2 things - laughs till your stomach hurts as well as beautiful memories that we’ll create together.
