The Best Wedding Photo You Will Ever See

A newlywed bride snapped with her husband and a group of patched Black Power gang members says the photo will be a great story to tell their children.

In the picture, Sarah and Matthew Oke are seen posing in what would be a traditional wedding photo - if it weren't for the 20 strong group of Black Power gang members gathered behind them giving a one-arm salute.

On Facebook, Mrs Oke described the photographers as "incredibly creative" and said she would treasure the pictures they took at her wedding forever.

"The guys in the photo were so respectful and very kind," she said of the Black Power members in the photo.

"They congratulated us and told me how beautiful I looked. Was a very cool experience and something we will share with our children."

The photographers, Rebecca Inns and her husband Jordan, said the unique snap was taken after a chance meeting with the gang members at Lucy's Gully, near Oakura.

"The rain had just cleared and we were enjoying a lovely sunny wedding shoot," Ms Inns wrote on Facebook.

"As we headed back to the cars we came across a very full car-park and the guys were there as part of a hikoi around the mountain to pay respects to those passed away.

"It was going to take a while to get our cars out so Jordan asked if it would be OK to include them in a wedding photo.

"They were really accommodating and had a discussion among themselves and after some discussion they decided that it would be fine... this is the result."
