Jo and Matt, Ruapuke at sunset.


We had the beach mostly to ourselves. The caves first, while the light was still climbing the rock.


Then the water. It started with one splash. By the end Jo was sitting in the surf in her dress, and Matt went down to meet her.


When the sun dropped they walked out into it, holding hands.


Congratulations, you two.
