A magical day

Equestrian worker Kate, and Dairy farmer Matt married on 17 January 2009, at Karaka Point Vineyard on the outskirts of Auckland, New Zealand.

The venue suited the rustic, natural feel Kate and Matt were going for, and their friend Tracy Turpen, from South Carolina, took the photographs.

Tracy says, “From Kate’s dress to the 117 year old locket she wore, to the vintage car and Matt’s cap – the details of their wedding fit perfectly together”.

In their two album set, Tracy included photos from an extra shoot they did the day after the wedding. “Kate and Matt wanted to push the boundaries a little so they bridled up their most trusted horse and we headed out to a paddock on their farm.”

Tracy says they were lucky enough to have the perfect mix of sunshine and rain on what was a magical day.

Cheers, Nigel
