As photographer Melissa Ann Bagley celebrates, “Izzy Magazine is a long time dream finally come to life”. And a celebration is definitely in order, Izzy is a gorgeous, seamless piece of art work. The magazine is all glamour and glitz! And Melissa is an inspiration to all as she juggles the busy life as a fellow wedding photographer and now as the editor of a beautiful new magazine. I am so happy to see Anna+James’ New Zealand Wedding featured on her blog today. Its a perfect summary of their amazing week on the little enchanting island of Waiheke where Anna and James sealed their love. Enjoy!
What amazing coverage from Polka Dot Bride!! Not only did PDB showcase so many wonderful images from Anna & James’ gorgeous day, but they included their incredible story and all of the fun details and festivities that went on throughout the wedding week. I am so excited to share Anna+ James on this beautiful Australian wedding site. PDB is dedicated to inspiring brides to create beautiful weddings that are uniquely theirs, while presenting international celebrations all over the world. Anna + James is a perfect wedding to showcase in this light. Thanks so much for the beautiful feature!
It was so amazing to spend time with our dear friends, Liz and Clint, and their amazing, adorable, and unbelievably lovable boy, Anthony!! Liz is Anna’s (my beautiful bride in NZ!) partner in crime and the wine connoisseur of the wonderful restaurant, South Food and Wine Bar. In addition to being on the gorgeous island of Waiheke in New Zealand for our shoot, L&C rented a wonderful modern prefab house right on the cliffline overlooking Auckland. The city looked like OZ, illuminated by the light of the sun seeping through the stormy clouds.
And you will see why EVERYONE is so in love with this kid. You cannot resist T.G.!!!!
Thanks for the action shot Janine!
Yes, we are headed down South. Woo Hoo! And for this one, my hubby Greg is my co-pilot/ assistant. Our dear friends Anna and James are getting hitched.
This event has been two years in the making (we are dying already…let’s go!), and what a party they have planned. The super star couple is getting married in Hawkes Bay at the gorgeous Mudbrick Vineyard. The wedding will be laid back and lovely, just as they are.
Anna grew up close by. Her restaurant South, located in Soma, is inspired by the wine and cuisine of NZ, along with the Australian influences of her best friend Liz and the superstar Australian chef, Luke Mangan.
Anna and I are already concocting our ideas for the fashion shoot couple days prior to the wedding; a meadow of sheep, long white go-go boots, and a short wedding veil.
Here’s a quick blurb that James wrote on how he met and fell for Anna. Is this guy cute or what?? “On a warm August evening in New York City’s Chinatown, I approached seven flights of stairs that would forever change my life. On crutches with a torn Achilles, floor by floor, I sweated my way up the old pre-war building to find a smiley green-eyed Kiwi girl I’d make my wife. Gigondas at Balthazar, lattes at Gitande, I found the happy face I’ll love to the end…”.
Oh and a few photos from Vegas….We saw LOVE (how appropriate!)
