Wānaka Wedding + Elopement Photographer

Wedding photography that brings you back, to how it felt, not just how it looked.

Kia Ora, I’m Natalia.

The Photographer behind ‘Natalia Kate Photography’.

My love for photographing people really began in 2024 when I started offering my services, but everything changed when I was asked to capture a friend’s wedding in January 2025. I absolutely fell in love with it. That was the moment I knew I wanted to focus on documenting love.

In 2026, I took the leap and went all in on photography and I haven’t looked back since. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of capturing weddings and elopements, and every single one leaves me buzzing.

For me, it’s about more than just photos. I love building friendships with my couples and helping them feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. I’m there to capture not just the two of you, but all the in-between moments. The emotion, the energy, and everything that makes your day uniquely yours, so you have something real to look back on for years to come.

  • “Natalia did a couple’s photo shoot for my partner & I and she was absolutely incredible. This was something we were a bit nervous about as we thought it was going to be out of our comfort zone. But it was not at all. She made it genuinely so fun and natural and we were absolutely stoked with how the photos turned out. Couldn’t recommend her services more!”
