Winter time is a slow time for weddings and couples shoots as often rains and weather not so amazing, but its perfect for indoor events, including sports photography.

Im so grateful for an opportunity to give back to skating community and capture all ice figure skating competitions in Auckland, New Zealand. As a skater and mum of a skater myself I love to observe the moments of beauty, power and grace and capture best moments possible, amazing memories for skaters and their family!

Enjoy highlights of another club competitions in winter season - Allegro Championships! Wedding season is coming soon! Perfect timing to finish sport photography and move into pre-wedding, family and elopements photography.

Its been a bit quiet here as I been away in Europe, to participate in Adult Ice Skating competitions in Oberstdorf, Germany, such a big world event for adult skaters. It was unusual to have this competitions held in the summer heat (it was 30-35 degrees, so almost impossible to walk outside. Best places to be was ice rink and top of the Nebelhorn mountain. Luckily gondolas been working this time, so we went there a few times, and even took pictures in our skating dresses.

I enjoyed time in Europe with all the yummy cakes and food, meeting with old and new friends and training camp with world best coaches. Surprisingly, I took 2nd place and beautiful trophy in my free skating program and truly enjoyed to skate first time my artistic program.

It was such a positive trip and amazing experience. You can check photos in my Social Media - Instagram @olgalevien

After I come back with a big jetlag, shortly it was time to take my usual role - a photographer at competitions in Paradice Avondale (last weekend). Time for passion, love and fire on ice with amazing performances.

What a competition full of power, grace and love to skating - from little ones to adults, everyone living the same passion on the ice!
