Hello! I'm Patty.

I’m 32 years old, and I’m a lover of life. When I’m not shooting, filming, or editing, I like to create ceramic pieces, practise yoga, play with lyra and silks, go climbing, or lounge by the beach, maybe do some watercolour painting, read books, learn Spanish, or cuddle with doggos. I also have a healthy obsession with houseplants.

I am passionate about authenticity, mental health, self-care, and travel.

I well up with warmth and happy tears and feel fully alive knowing that I am pursuing the magical connection of relationships, strengthening the community, and bringing light to all by providing soulful wedding photography and videography.

Pursuing photography full-time was a dream that turned into reality. Everyday, I am grateful for the life that I’ve been given, and I endeavour to make every moment matter.

This is why I love to capture warm, gentle, and genuine moments; the deep connection between people. I like to see who you really are: your heart, your love, and your joy. I truly believe that my best work comes from capturing beauty and moments that unfold.

My task is to ensure the frames I take are honest, authentic, and lasting. I want you to be comfortable in your own skin, and have memories to treasure for lifetimes ahead. I also get really excited when couples are willing to get playful and go on adventures and explore sunsets and extraordinary locations with me.

I’m currently based in Auckland, New Zealand—originally from Manila, Philippines — and happy to travel anywhere around the world to be with you on your special day.

Apart from New Zealand, I have been to Bora Bora, Bali, the Whitsundays, Fiji, Greece, France, Spain, California, India, and the Philippines to capture some beautiful weddings & pretty wonderful humans.
