An elopement is a wedding done your way, just how you want it. Your wedding should be about you and your partner, it should be about love.

Thinking about eloping in New Zealand?

You’re in the right place

I’ve had the honour of photographing countless beautiful, intimate weddings over the years – from windswept cliffs to quiet mountaintops, barefoot beaches to wild forest trails

 

Elopements are my heart’s work

And while my journey has evolved, I still work closely with couples planning deeply personal, high-end elopement experiences

 

These days, all my elopement photography is handled through Lost in Love

Do you want your entire elopement taken care of for you?

It’s my dedicated elopement brand and studio, created especially for modern romantics who want something intimate, cinematic, and wildly beautiful.
So if you’re dreaming of an elopement in Aotearoa that feels like a story, not just a shoot,
If you want someone to guide you through the whole process – not just take the photos, come join me over there
You’ll still find me behind the lens, doing what I love most.

Kate Craig Brown - Photography

From the moment we contacted Kate in regards to capturing our elopement, she instantly put us at ease. She was friendly and funny and her communication was excellent throughout the whole process.

If you’re looking for a person that is an absolute professional and creates outstanding images for you to enjoy for years to come – Kate’s your woman!

All of our friends and family have said that the images don’t look real!  Some of the best wedding images they have ever seen (their words not ours)

Kate – we cannot thank you enough for all you did for us, prior to, during, and after our wedding. You were absolutely wonderful. You know we’ll be recommending you to anyone that wants to get married in Queenstown!

With Love, Chris & Dan
