There’s a place in New Zealand, just by the sea, that’s second to see a day before the rest of the world.
It’s called Te Mata Peak, and during her month expedition through New Zealand and Fiji, my friend Sarah got to see it. She was there teaching photography with a program called IPS, and hearing her stories makes me want to drop everything in my life and move to a cottage in the shade of the Remarkables.
She just blogged about her best sunrise view and I fell madly in love.
Ahhhh can you just imagine?
She’s such an exceptional photographer, and shot so many with me this year. But as one of the most encouraging, whimsical dears I know, she wins everything as a blue-eyed, curly-haired, endlessly-hopeful, letter-writing friend. Suffice to say it’s been a memorable year.
Post-wedding shoot in a field of sprinklers? Of course.
She doesn’t live nearby, so whenever we hang out it’s almost always work-related. Except for this weekend! We somehow have the next few days dedicated to parties, shopping, ice skating and whatever other Christmastime shenanigans we can find. And I’m so excited! We love the beauty of our work, but we’re still JUST GIRLS WHO WANNA HAVE FU-UNNNN. (….someone’s been to a few too many wedding receptions.)
I’m about to post another favorite wedding from summer, so in the meantime go explore Sarah’s Ampersand Photography blog and fall in love with her heart, soul, and the other side of the world.
that last picture of Sarah is amazing! cool stuff!
AWWWWWW. I love Sarah, too!
