Rainbow Falls, Kerikeri

We made the trip up to Kerikeri, explicitly to get some funky photos behind the waterfall in the cave… Little did we know, it’s not exactly suitable when there’s a high flow of water, and mid winter resulting in icy water. After clambering across some of the slippery rocks, we managed the best shots we could…This will be our next summer adventure!

Raging Haruru Falls, Northland

After spending a night in Paihia, we made the trip north towards Kerikeri to witness the Rainbow Falls. Just a few kilometres out of Paihia and Waitangi is the Haruru Falls. Usually rather docile, today it was completely raging from several days of heavy rain. Further downstream, the Waitangi River filters out to the estuary where the Waitangi sunset photos were taken the previous night.

Paihia Sunrise

Just to prove the weather forecasters wrong, we arose at the crack of dawn to witness the sunrise across the calm Bay of Islands water at Paihia.

After the fun day spent with family in Kaikohe, we ventured along to the wonderful Bay of Islands. Spending just a single night in Paihia. A small break in the wet weather came, out in the West towards Waitangi, so we made the short trip along the waterfront to Waitangi. Waitangi is best known for being the location where the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840, giving British sovereignty over New Zealand.

Kayleigh’s First Birthday

We made the trip up to Kaikohe to enjoy Kayleigh’s first birthday. She’s grown incredibly large compared to when we last saw her in March – http://www.williamsphotography.co.nz/people/children/kaikohe-photographer/

It was another chance to test out our great new Canon 5D Mark II camera, and made a few cute videos
