RUGGED COASTAL COUPLE’S SHOOT AT MURIWAI BEACH

I absolutely loved photographing this Muriwai Beach engagement couple’s shoot session. A short drive from Auckland central, this black sand beach is one of my favourite places. Caitlin and James are a sweet, fun-loving pair to spend an afternoon with.

Caitlin and James saw an advantage for an engagement shoot as part of their package. The complementary couple’s shoot meant that they could capture the beginning of their wedding story and have something to look forward to for when the big day arrived.

I really can't think of a better spot for an engagement shoot than Muriwai Beach. New Zealand’s West Coast is rugged, dramatic and naturally beautiful. It's barely affected by human beings and is so vast, it feels like you're the only couple on the beach.

Working with Caitlin and James, this couple’s shoot was planned to highlight the ease that the two feel with each other.  Candid shots were mostly needed, with only a few traditional posed shots.

We spent the evening climbing rocks, exploring caves and climbing hills to discover some of the best views of the West Coast. Muriwai really is an amazing spot for photographs.

It wasn't hard getting these two looking good for the camera. With a few suggestions, Caitlin and James found their fears lifted. They're a naturally playful couple and full of joy - a perfect match!
