Orlando Bloom Snaps Miranda Kerr for Very Personal Fashion Spread

Of course Miranda Kerr can still look flawless while chowing down on an ice cream sundae. The supermodel lets her hair down for a very personal T: The New York Times Style Magazine photo shoot — a shoot so personal that her husband, Orlando Bloom, was the photographer.

After shooting on location in Wellington, New Zealand — where the couple and their 19-month-old son lived for seven months beginning last December – the famous duo revealed why the naturally beautiful town makes the perfect hideaway.

“Like this, what we’re doing right now, just sitting in a park, out in public, I can’t do this anywhere else,” Kerr tells the magazine. “In Los Angeles, there are people camped out in our driveway every day, waiting to follow us wherever we go.”

Considered one of the most remote capitals in the world (it’s also where The Lord of The Rings was filmed), Wellington was a perfect backdrop as Bloom spent two days wandering the city photographing his wife. He captured her eating at their favorite local café (top), posing on a farm (bottom) and lounging around other scenic spots — all while Kerr wore designer garb by Derek Lam, Thakoon, The Row and rag & bone (among others).

To see more of the stunning photographs head over to NYTimes.com or pick up the Women’s Fall Fashion 2012 issue of T: The New York Times Style Magazine, on newsstands this weekend. Tell us: What do you think of Bloom’s photography skills?

Oh man was I misunderstood! My post had nothing to do with the inclusion of sheep in the photo, but with the pose Miranda struck in front of them! The juxtaposition of the supermodel pose with the real life going on behind her. It seemed like a ridiculous photo because of her pose…not a ridiculous subject to take a photo of. Relax please.

Great photos and I’m glad to hear they’re still together, I thought I read somewhere they had separated.

I used to like her until she made a dumb comment against usng epidurals during delivery.

and Marky, you are acting like the ignorant sterotyper with the ignorant American comment.

Great pics, i live in Auckland, New Zealand and I would just say there are so many more beautiful locations than that but then she’s so beautiful she would look good standing in the middle of a rubbish tip picking her nose

As a human race, we all need to stop being so judgmental. Miranda Kerr is beautiful inside and out and just because she doesn’t have the bad behavior that most celebrities have, we don’t have to find something to pick at. Really, we have to comment on her hair? And as for eating ice cream, of course she ate some. Miranda is Buddhist and Buddhism is about non-attachment. If she wants ice cream, she’s going to eat it; she just won’t overindulge like most North Americans would.

While you people laugh at her for standing in front of sheep shes having a good laugh at your bank account. Do people really have nothing better to do than insult others they are clearly jealous of. Grow up.

Kerr looks cute and relaxed in the shots taken by Bloom. You can see the trust and love there.
