Annabelle, Cian & Ostara

On Saturday Annabelle and Cian had a beautiful and moving ceremony in the forest, with native bush surrounding them as well their family who had come from the UK and Ireland.
Their four year old daughter Ostara was also the star of the show!

Wee Owen

Lizette and James are the very proud parents of 3 week old Owen, who did so well for his first photoshoot! He was so yummy and sweet, he finally went to sleepy land when he had enough of being in his birthday suit and being moved around!

Michelle, Tony & Aiden

Last week the very fabulous Jody Beattie photographed Michelle and her beautiful bump, big sister Aiden also jumped in for a few shots as did reluctant dad Tony. What a gorgeous family. Stay tuned for their newborn pics in a few weeks.
I will be introducing Jody Beattie officially very soon as a new photography on board with Photography by Marijke.

Julz and Kurt 8th of January.

The very lovely Kurt and Julz were married at the Ridge Country Retreat nestled in the hills of Welcome Bay. What a stunning setting for such a lovely wedding- I don't think they could have asked for things to be more perfect. And they were such a pleasure to photograph! All the very best Julz and Kurt!

Happy New Year!

I am back from a magical time away in the Coromandel, we even got to participate in helping a pod of whales that had stranded themselves, pics below.
I am looking forward to another creative, joyful year full of gorgeous people and inspiring photography, I have lots of new plans so watch this space!
If you have been waiting for your gallery of pics from portraits late last year expect them very soon.
