Our heartfelt gratitude for your outstanding wedding photography services. Especially to Ayaka that played an invaluable role in making our special day truly unforgettable, and we cannot thank you enough for your talent and professionalism.
Ayaka’s friendliness and creativity made the whole entire experience enjoyable and making us very comfortable in front of the camera. She captured every important moment, from the emotional exchange of vows to the candid laughter of our guests. Her ability to tell the story of our day through their lenses was truly remarkable.
We wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone seeking a wedding photographer who goes above and beyond to create lasting memories. You are a true professional, and we wish you continued success in your career.

“Due to the strong wind, we couldn’t do photoshoot with heli-elopement package as planned. (Team Nomad asked many heli-company but all declined as it was too dangerous.) To be honest, my wife and I were so worried if we can enjoy the day… However, Tomomi, Ayaka and Josh made it one of the unforgettable special memory for both my wife and me. They did their best to do everything possible for us. I’m 120% sure you can make special day with Nomad Weddings.” – Koji & Akiko

Wow! Just wow! We are FLOORED with how beautiful our wedding photos turned out and how FUN and UPLIFTING our wedding video is! We can’t stop watching it. Our loved ones are also saying things like “This is the BEST wedding video I’ve ever seen. It should get an Oscar!”
The crew was friendly and professional, super helpful and offered advice/assistance during the planning phase as well as the day of. We couldn’t have been more pleased with how well cared for we were – James is SO detail oriented AND chill at the same time. We were in great hands.
The rates are also incredibly affordable! You may not know it, but after paying for wedding photography/videography in Hawaii as well, we feel like we UNDER-PAID for their services.
We will be telling anyone who goes to NZ to minimally book a heli-photo session with Nomad, and we ourselves hope to book again the next time we are near Queenstown!!

“What an incredible experience, a dream made reality by the Nomad team. They dealt with having the wedding a day early due to weather conditions without even the smallest hitch. The lead up to the wedding and the day were all stress free for us because they took care of everything so well. James was easy to work with and responsive to our requests. We’re so grateful to the team for helping us make such magical memories” – Andy & Sharda

“Obviously you want your wedding to be memorable but also enjoyable with a side of an experience.

James and his team blew us away with how smooth everything went, the photos and videos were amazing and told us the exact date that the weather would be perfect which it was.

My Wife and I are not traditional with weddings and James and his crew made our elopement align with our interests.

Thank you team and the Wife thanks you for the extra snacks on the day ;)” – Mick & Gemma

“Married…with a heli-elopement package up on Roy’s peak. We had the most amazing experience with James, Ayaka and Tomomi. The team was so easy to work with and they knew what we wanted. They really made us feel comfortable and relaxed during the whole time. The photos and video turned out beautiful and we can’t stop looking at them. We would definitely recommend James for wedding/pre-wedding or even casual photoshoot. Thanks James and team for this wonderful experience!…”

Married 10.01.23 with a heli- elopement package. Thank you so much to James & his wonderful team for making our day so special! We had the most wonderful experience & highly recommend James Hirata to anyone. If we could give more stars we would! Right from the start James has been wonderful to deal with. He is a great communicator & absolutely knows his stuff. On the day James & Tomomi were incredible, they made us feel so special & comfortable. We were both so nervous going into the day not knowing what to expect but they made us feel at ease with their kindness & light hearted humor. James gives so much guidance with photos so you don’t need to know what your doing or feel awkward, he helps to make you feel comfortable & get the most of out of your special day. They also give great restaurant & holiday tips too! We have already received our sneak peak photos and they are incredible & have well & truly exceeded our expectations. We could go on and on about how amazing James and his team are! Please do yourself a favour & book with James & his team- you won’t regret it.
