Experience the real life fairytale that is Folklore Photography...
At Folklore Photography, we believe every love story deserves to feel like a real-life fairytale. Based in the lush landscapes of the Bay of Plenty, we specialize in capturing weddings, engagements, maternity - all endless love stories that are timeless, magical, and uniquely yours.
Our style blends light, airy romance with rich colors —think mossy forests, castle dreams, and Disney princess moments brought to life. Inspired by whimsical tales, heartfelt connections, and the beauty of fleeting moments, we’re here to turn your story into something you’ll cherish for generations.
We’re not just photographers; we’re storytellers. Whether it’s the sparkle in your eyes, the warmth of your embrace, or the laugh you can’t hold back, we’re here to capture every detail that makes your love extraordinary.
We aim to showcase the beauty of your unique journey, while ensuring that the process is as relaxed, joyful, and full of heart as a great cup of coffee shared with friends.
It begins with a cozy conversation to learn all about your session or event details. If you’re up for it, we’re happy to meet beforehand for coffee to discuss everything - because, let’s be real, some of the best ideas (and a lot of laughs) come to life when you’re sipping a latte.
When the big day arrives, We’ll guide you through each moment with a light touch, helping you feel at ease while creating beautiful images. Think of us as your personal cheerleaders, there to make sure you look and feel fantastic while enjoying every second.
From our pre-session guides to the little tricks we use during your shoot (yes, we may throw in a few terrible jokes along the way), we ensure everyone feels at ease, laughing, dancing, and simply being themselves.
By the end, it’ll feel less like a photoshoot and more like you’re starring in your very own fairytale, captured by a team who knows how to highlight all your best moments.
We’re here to capture the magic of your story, while ensuring you have fun along the way. Because when you’re laughing, when you’re feeling good, and when you're just being your wonderful self—that’s when the real magic happens.
Within 48 hours, we’ll send you digital previews of your photos.No endless waiting or cliffhangers, just an exciting sneak peek into your magical moments. And if you're the type who still appreciates the charm of holding a physical photo (we hear it's making a comeback), we offer prints upon request. There’s something extra special about seeing your moments come to life in a frame you can hang proudly on the wall. Trust us, your future self will thank you.
But here’s the best part: We love hearing about your experience with us. We’re like that friend who can’t wait to hear all the details after an amazing adventure. Your feedback not only helps us grow but keeps us inspired to continue creating magical moments for others. So, if you’d like to share a glowing review or a funny memory from the shoot (we’re all for the quirky moments), we’re all ears.
At the end of the day, our goal is to craft memories that feel like living dreams, woven into the tapestry of your extraordinary story. These timeless images become cherished mementos, reminders of a day when magic and love came to life. Your life. Your fairytale. And your happily ever after.
