Wellington Wedding Photographer for Couples Who Love Real, Heartfelt Moments

I’m Kent, a wedding and engagement photographer based in Wellington. I’m here to make your day feel easy, joyful, and beautifully documented, so you can focus on what really matters — each other.

A Gentle, Relaxed Experience From Start to Finish

Wedding, Engagement and Family Photography

Whether it's your wedding day, an engagement session, or a simple moment with your family, I offer photography that feels natural and never forced. Every session is designed to be relaxed, fun, and true to who you are.

A Little About Me

I’ve photographed weddings and love stories all across Wellington, Porirua, Lower Hutt and the Kāpiti Coast. My style is simple and genuine, focusing on connection, light, and honest emotion. I guide you gently when you need it, and let moments unfold when they feel right.

Kind Words From Couples

Nothing makes me happier than knowing couples feel cared for, relaxed, and truly seen in their photos.

"We found Kent to be wonderfully talented behind the camera, and we're very happy with the photos that we received for our engagement photoshoot and wedding photoshoot. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!" - Jackie S

"Kent was amazing to work with throughout the process and we are so happy with our photos.
At our initial meeting he took the time to understand the type of wedding we were having and what we wanted captured.
Kent's extensive experience with wedding photography really showed on the day and translated into our photos. His communication, creative direction, attention to detail and knowledge of scenic locations near our ceremony made it so much easier for us and getting us looking natural on camera! His friendly approach and kind nature also made our guests relaxed in front of the camera.
We received our photos and highlight video very quickly after our wedding and were amazed by the results.
Completely exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend his services!" - Holly T

"Choosing a wedding photographer can be fraught. It's usually something you only do once, and you are relying in the person you hire to capture all those moments from your special day, knowing that if they don't do it well, you won't get a second chance.
We recently hired Kent to take care of the photography for our wedding and we couldn't be happier. He and his assistant were friendly and professional, and produced some lovely photos for us, while also being very competitively priced.
Kent visited us to discuss our needs well in advance of the wedding, did a pre-wedding photo shoot with us, did a walk through at the venue in advance of the wedding, and arrived early on the day and took photos throughout.
Kent was even nice enough to capture some high quality video for us at no extra charge which we really appreciated.
We would happy recommend him to others (and we have)." - Derek S
