Wedding Albums

Handcrafted quality - Each book is made with only the finest materials to give a high quality finish.
Classic design - uncluttered pages work wonders with a 11×8.5” landscape format (close to A4).
Layflat binding - for seamless beauty without the usual gutter in the middle. Especially effective for images over a double page spread.
Choice of covers - Linen is a great option that offers a classic aesthetic with a pleasing texture.
Personalise - A great range of colours to choose from for linen covers!
Leather & buckram - Make it exceptionally durable with leather or buckram. Add a stamped title to finish it off in style!
More choices - A great selection of leather and buckram colours are available.
Durability - Thick 190gsm pages are much thicker and more rigid than standard album pages, so they’ll last a lifetime!
You’re in control - Be included in the design process so you get the album you want! You’ll have 3 rounds to make as many requests/tweaks as you like.
Pricing example- An 11×8.5” (A4ish) 30 page album with layflat binding and a hard linen cover with a gold title stamped onto the front will cost $1550. A 2nd copy would be just $255, and the 3rd/4th even cheaper. Book a wedding package and album together to save 10% on the album

What to expect

Here’s a quick kia-ora from me, along with an idea of what a day’s shoot could look like. There’s also more to be found on my ‘About’ page, or send me a message.

Sometimes you’ll find me blending in with the furniture, and the next minute I’m at your side like a good friend along for the adventure!

It's in the subtle glances exchanged across a crowded room, the shared laughter over inside jokes, and the unspoken understanding between lovers that I’m passionate about capturing. Sometimes you’ll find me blending in with the furniture, and the next minute I’m at your side like a good friend along for the adventure! My style is largely documentary-focused because I’m passionate about letting the true emotions, interactions, and atmosphere of your wedding shine through.

“Chai was everywhere at once, capturing every fleeting smile, joyful tear, and moment of pure magic.” - Matt Passfield

For posed shots I’ll give you clear guidance as to which limbs to place where - then I’ll probably say something silly… you’ll smile… and I’ll snap away while you look amazing! I love celebrating you being you in all your colours! I’m proudly LGBTQ+ friendly too.

I favour a natural style of editing photos for its ability to preserve the authenticity and timeless beauty of the day. By avoiding heavy filters and artificial enhancements, natural editing allows the true emotions, interactions, and atmosphere of the wedding day to shine through. Many of the weddings that I photograph include an outdoors element, and scenes are often at their best when natural colours are preserved. Furthermore, a natural editing style offers versatility, seamlessly adapting to different lighting conditions and settings while maintaining a consistent aesthetic appeal.

Rest assured that I come well-equipped to make you look amazing no matter what the weather is doing. Kitted out with high-quality gear gives me a multitude of advantages that can significantly enhance the overall experience and outcome of the day, ensuring that precious moments are captured with clarity and precision.
