"NOT HOW IT LOOKED.

HOW IT FELT."


"I don't photograph perfect, staged moments. I photograph the honest, raw connection and the way people hold each other. Based on the wild coast in Gisborne, I document authentic love stories locally, across the Bay of Plenty, in Auckland, and wherever your journey takes you.

MY BAGS ARE PERMANENTLY PACKED."


ALL NEW ZEALAND TRAVEL COSTS ARE ALREADY BUILT TRANSPARENTLY INTO YOUR FLAT-RATE WEDDING PACKAGES"

"My partner and I usually freeze up the second a camera is pointed at us, but Mónica completely shifted that. Within five minutes, we forgot she was even there. She caught the quiet, unscripted glances that define who we are. We cannot recommend her enough."
