I’m so excited to share another happy-ever-after story of one of my past wedding couples! Chantel & Jon’s engagement session & wedding are some of my favourite photography moments and last weekend I shared another amazing moment in their lives with them: their maternity photoshoot. This lovely couple is expecting their baby boy’s arrival early next year.

We did their photoshoot at Delta Park in Victory Park, Johannesburg. Here are some of my favourites from their maternity photoshoot.

SEBASTIAN’S BIRTHDAY & CHRISTENING |candlewoods centurion pretoriaNovember 17, 2016

I was fortunate enough to capture Inge & Stuart’s wedding at Olive Mystery in Bapsfontein in 2014. Today these two have welcomed a precious little boy into the world and I had the privilege of capturing his Christening & 1st birthday party. It brings me absolute joy to know that my past wedding couples are doing well, and having the opportunity to celebrate these special occasions with them is a cherished gift. Little Sebastian is one of the happiest (and cutest!) babies I’ve ever come across and seeing so many familiar faces from their wedding day at his party was so much fun!

His Christening and party was held at the beautiful Candlewoods Boutique venue in Centurion, Pretoria. It was a beautiful day with close family & friends, and the day included a cake-smash!

MR & MRS ENGELBRECHT |piet retief mpumalanga weddingMarch 18, 2015

Charlene & Willem’s wedding day was one of the highlights of my year! This couple and their guests were some of the nicest people I’ve ever had the opportunity to work with. They made us feel right at home in their beautiful town, Piet Retief (click here to view their engagement photoshoot that was also captured in their hometown). Charlene & Willem said their vows on the 7th of February 2015 at a chapel in town that has special sentimental value to them and their reception took place at Charlene’s old school.

The look and feel of their wedding day was rustic/vintage – they had so many creative & handmade decor ideas, I love the apple and pear shapes made from books! Also, the kneeling pillows used during the ceremony was Charlene’s grandparents wedding kneeling pillows from 59 years ago! The couple’s newlywed photo session was almost cut short after a thunderstorm started, but luckily there was no rain at the reception venue and we were able to take some beautiful shots in the forest plantations.

BABY ROSS |johannesburg newborn sessionJanuary 23, 2015

Last year I had an amazing family session with the beautiful du Plessis family when little Ross was still just a tiny bump in his mommy’s belly (click here to see their family session). Now little Ross has officially been welcomed into his family and he’s the perfect addition to this lovely household <3 This is my first newborn session, so I’m very excited to share it. Little Ross and his sister are natural models and it was great fun being able to do this session in the comfort of their own home. I love that Lianè (Ross’ sister) already has a natural curiosity for the camera, she kept wanting to grab it. I think it might soon be time for her first camera 😉

Tarien and Quinton are such proud parents and it shows in every photo. They truly have been blessed with the most precious happy family and it’s amazing to see the lifelong sibling bond that has already started between this tiny little brother and sister. <3
