South of the border

I have been away in the beautiful Canterbury region photographying, amongest other things, a lovely and super fun wedding. After stressing (and slapping myself later) over the weather... The forecast earlier in the week was for.... hail, gales, snow, rain... and then once I arrived the weather was glorious all week. I must have known deep down it would be fine - - I put off buying thermal underwear... The worst part, in all honesty -was the turbulence on arrival and leaving Christchurch airport.... I was spoiled rotten by having a rental car upgrade !! (Avis rentals were great - I loved my Mrs RAV) and then to top things off - the hotel (Rydges)upgraded me as well to gorgeous suite overlooking the Avon river. I can't give the hotel staff enough praise - they were so nice and professional. The best belated mother's day presents ever ! Just a sneaky look at the area where we toook the wedding party shots... more to follow of course--- as I wade through them all... until later.... K
