Photographing your moments in San Francisco, California

Couple's Night Time Photography

Astrophotography & Evening Photoshoots

Below are 3 ways to make the night yours  

"We can’t promise stars — but we can promise magic.”

Whether the sky is clear or cloudy, we craft a cinematic, emotion-rich experience tailored to your love. If the stars hide, we pivot to something equally breathtaking like a moody, windswept mountain top or soft, glowing twilight.


Twilight session

what's Included:

$1000 NZD / $580 USD

One location, one hour of shooting

20 beautifully edited twilight images

Optional Upgrades:
  • Couples Heli Flight: Take your shoot to new heights with a breathtaking aerial experience
  • Styled Picnic: Add a touch of romance with a curated picnic setup to enjoy during your session

A perfect option if you’re short on time or prefer something simpler than an astro session. Capture stunning memories of your New Zealand vacation with a relaxed, romantic twilight shoot.

(For couples wanting the magic of the night sky, our signature experiences below capture the stars at their most cinematic)

Simple, romantic, and utterly unforgettable.

Starlight session

$1800 NZD / $1050 USD

The night belongs to you.

what's Included:

Over 1.5 hours, we’ll settle into one handpicked location chosen for its stillness, beauty, and uninterrupted night sky.

Lantern light flickers nearby. Blankets wrap around you. 

As darkness deepens, the landscape softens, and the stars begin to emerge, creating a setting that feels intimate and entirely your own.

As the last light fades, the mountains fall quiet, and the stars take over.

For couples who want something simple, intentional, and quietly unforgettable.

10+ beautifully retouched astro images, crafted to feel cinematic, luminous, and true to the moment.

The Whole Night Experience

$2600 NZD/ $1499 USD

For those who don’t want to rush the night

With more time, we’re able to move locations, adapt to the conditions, and create a full story rather than a single moment
this is where the most cinematic, expansive and emotive astro imagery comes from.

This is the experience most couples choose when they want to fully step into the night, rather than just capture a moment of it 

what's Included:

With more time comes more freedom to chase clear skies, adapt to conditions, and create something truly immersive.

Lanterns flicker. Blankets wrap around you. Warm drinks in hand as the mountains fall quiet around you.

20 beautifully retouched astro images, crafted to feel cinematic, emotive, and deeply intentional.

Over 3 hours, we explore multiple handpicked locations, each chosen for stars, atmosphere, and complete privacy.

From the final glow of dusk to deep starlight, your experience unfolds slowly, with space to move, pause, and sink into the moment.

Optional: Want to take it higher? Elevate your experience with a private helicopter flight to a remote mountaintop. From $1,770 NZD.
