AND
A boy and a girl named Dylan and Sandra were just best friends who played little impromptu songs in a basement church café. At a New Years Eve party in 2012, they shared their unspoken love for one another during a slow dance. Nearly 12 months later they got married, and soon after, they ventured to New Zealand. The experience was a great adventure, greater than they could have imagined life could be. They traipsed grand mountainscapes, got their campervan stuck in the snow one pitch-black dark night, shivered cold together and then woke up facing crystal blue Lake Wanaka, and discovered the best butter chicken in the universe at the base of a Queenstown mountain. New Zealand represented more than a trip. It told of the kind of adventure that comes with marrying your best friend. A lifetime of exploration and fun, extreme joys, challenging lows, but always making it through, hand-in-hand. A reminder that life adventures are not meant to be a NEW or rare experience, but rather a way of life that knits us closer than we could ever imagine. And so Zealand was born. With a love for documenting others' adventures beginning with Dylan & Sandra Photography, Dylan and Sandra expanded with a team of handpicked talent with a passion for one thing: celebrating the gift that is true love.
We cannot wait to capture this next chapter of your own adventure, the people you love, and the moments that will always make your heart come alive
