I'm your professional third wheel!
I’m a Swedish girl, wife and adventurer who moved across the world to Aotearoa for my very own love story (I met my husband here!). I'm very much in love with this beautiful country, and photographing love for a living just adds to the magic.
Other than seeing new places, I enjoy thrift shopping, and a good cup of coffee. When it comes to my photography I am especially fond of capturing genuine emotions with a relaxed approach, but never without intention and an eye for beauty. I am always down for a new love story, and I am ready to capture yours!
"Having Ioana shoot our wedding, I can honestly say is one of the best decisions we made for our day"

Our Approach
Here’s a little about what you can expect when you have me by your side!
Your wedding day is deeply personal, and I want your photographs to feel that way too. I’ll take the time to understand what matters most to you, while gently guiding you when you need it and giving you space to simply be present when you don’t.
With an adventurous spirit and an eye for the details, I’ll capture your day as it naturally unfolds, creating photographs that don’t just show you how it looked, but bring you right back to how it felt.
With my lens as my guide, I will create a visual narrative that reflects your unique connection, ensuring that every image evokes the emotions and magic that you experienced on your special day.

We got such beautiful wedding photos from Ioana, highly recommend her work! We loved her style of photography and she’s such a gem. Very easy to work with, confident in directing group photos and arranging the bridal party and prompt in getting the image gallery back. Such a great experience having her capture our day!

FAQs
It’s the thoughtful details that make your day truly unforgettable. Add a little something extra to your celebration with these additions, designed to bring another layer of intention to the way we capture your day.
-
Timeless, true to colour and centred around genuine connection. I want your photographs to feel just as beautiful decades from now as they do today, so I keep retouching minimal and focus on creating images that feel natural and authentic to you.
Throughout the day, I’ll give you enough direction to help you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, without interrupting the natural flow of the moment. I want you to be fully present with each other while I capture your day as it genuinely unfolds.
Your vision matters to me too! I love hearing about everything you’re dreaming of for your day. So yes, please send me your Pinterest board!
-
If you’re getting married during the quieter season, you can expect to receive your full gallery within 1 to 2 weeks. During the busy summer season, turnaround is usually around 2 to 4 weeks.
But don’t worry, I won’t make you wait that long for a first look! I’ll send you 10-25 sneak peeks within 24 hours, so you can relive the magic and share the news with your loved ones.
-
Once your wedding date is officially booked, I’ll share plenty of helpful tips and guidance to help you create a timeline that feels relaxed, considered and true to you.
We’ll make sure there’s enough time for all the moments you want captured, without making your day feel rushed or overly scheduled. The goal is to create a beautiful flow that gives you space to be fully present, soak it all in and truly enjoy your day.
-
Absolutely! Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside some incredibly talented vendors that I’d be more than happy to recommend.
Once you’re booked, I’ll send you my full list of trusted favourites to help make planning your day that little bit easier.
-
On your wedding day, I shoot with two cameras using dual memory card slots, so your images are backed up from the moment they’re captured.
After your wedding, I back everything up across two separate hard drives and keep both copies safely stored until your final gallery has been delivered. I’ll also keep your RAW files for one year after your wedding, for a little extra peace of mind.
Having Ioana shoot our wedding, I can honestly say is one of the best decisions we made for our day. First off, she is an absolute gem and is super amazing to work with. She is able to understand your vision and implement it so perfectly and professionally. She carries her self with such a sweetness but also knows how to get the job done (and a FANTASTIC job at that)! I distinctly remember saying to my husband as we drove away from our wedding “I don’t even care how the photos turned out, I’m just so glad we hired her”. But secondly, when we got the photos back they did NOT disappoint one bit! She was extremely timely and the quality was top notch. She captured so many beautiful moments that I didn’t get to experience throughout the day, as well as captured the ones I did in such a sweet way. There is not one bad thing I can say about her! She went above and beyond helping with little details throughout the day, producing amazing quality work and capturing our wedding in just the way I want to remember it. Do yourself a favour and hire her, you won’t regret it :)
