Canterbury Wedding Photographer + Filmmaker
Kia ora, we're Robin + Andie, a wedding photography and film studio based in Akaroa on Banks Peninsula, covering weddings right across Canterbury.
Vineyards on the plains, gardens in the city, high-country stations, and the bays and hills of the Peninsula. It's a lot of range for one region, and we shoot all of it.â â
