Meet RUBY JAYNE / Curated. Intimate. Honest.
Lovers by Ruby Jayne is a photographer who moves in whispers of light and nostalgia. Based in Auckland, Ruby has crafted a style that feels like a soft exhale: the kind of images that linger in memory, full of emotion, texture, and a sense of timelessness.
Lovers by Ruby Jayne's work carries an editorial eye merged with documentary honesty, in New Zealand and beyond. She sees Weddings not just as big moments but as stories unfolding in quiet glances, laughter, candlelight, sunlight through leaves, and children dancing late into night. Her signature approach is warm, intimate, nostalgic, elevated.
Ruby delights in working with film as much as digital - the grain, the tones, the unpredictability of film add a layer of soul to her images. She doesn’t force moments to be picture‑perfect; instead, she watches and listens, capturing what naturally glows: the way light falls across a bride’s veil, the quiet joy in a groom’s eyes, the shy smiles exchanged between friends.
Big ceremonies and bridal portraits are rooms where art meets life; smaller moments... the forgotten touch, the unexpected tears, the dancing under string‑lights are treasures she hunts. Working with
Ruby is often described by couples as being in good hands: calm, attentive, supportive.
Ruby's pace does not rush; she gives space for nerves to settle, for people to breathe, to be themselves. This creates trust and from that trust come photos that feel honest, rich, even sacred. When you look back at a Wedding captured by
Lovers by Ruby Jayne, you don’t just see what happened, you feel how it happened, what it meant.
