We met with Jess & James for their engagement session on Muriwai Beach {Auckland}, one of the best location for a photo shoot - dream for everyone, especially surfers and wedding photographers. This place have amazing waves, and stunning rocks, but they could be tricky, when they come unexpected. So watch out for them, big chance to drive back home wet and covered in black sand.

We had so much fun, laughter and positive emotions with this beautiful couple, such amazing people! James shared some fun facts about their relationship: “We found out on our first date that Jess works in the same office as my brother in law just from the stories we were telling. Turned out she had already my sister too at the Christmas party a few weeks earlier. After our first date and a few more in early 2020 we managed to survive the first March lockdown and moved in together for the subsequent Auckland lockdowns and never looked back”
