MR & MRS FRAUENSTEIN |buitengeluk johannesburg weddingOctober 31, 2014

posted in Real Weddings

This was our first wedding of the new wedding season – and it was such a gorgeous Spring wedding! Tamaryn & Moritz tied the knot on the 27th of September 2014 at Buitengeluk in Fourways, Johannesburg. They were an amazing couple to start the new wedding season with – both beautiful inside and out and one of the most relaxed and jolly couples I’ve had the opportunity to meet. Keeping with their down-to-earth characters, this pair requested to only have natural candid shots taken on their wedding day.

LYDALL & DU TOIT |irene dairy farm family sessionJuly 18, 2014

posted in Family Photoshoots

It’s always great to see familiar faces from past weddings – and even better when you get to do a session with them! The du Toits and Lydalls chose Irene Dairy Farm as the ideal location for their late-afternoon winter family photosession and it was a lovely day on the farm. I am so impressed with the little ones – they played along so well with the camera 🙂

We had an incredible time working with this adorable bunch <3

MR & MRS WEILBACH |nutcracker parys weddingApril 3, 2014

posted in Real Weddings

Izelle & Fred are one of those couples that I bonded really well with (not just because the bride and I share the same name, hehe) – I looked forward to their wedding since the moment I met them; it was obvious it would be an amazing day. They were so great to work with during their engagement couple photoshoot (see their botanical garden engagement session here) and their wedding day was even more fun with the stunning touches to their decor and their beautiful wedding venue. They said their vows on the 22nd of February 2014 at The Nutcracker Country Retreat and Wedding Venue in Parys, Free State.

One thing that really stands out for me on their wedding day was the cheerful ambience thanks to their guests and family – it’s always beautiful to see the families of a newly married couple embracing each other with open arms and the heartfelt and funny speeches shared on their day (it was quite hilarious when one of the guests acted as a fake sign language interpreter during Fred’s speech) – it truly was a fairytale wedding for two beautiful people that are so obviously each other’s soulmates 🙂

MR & MRS SMITH |luiperdskloof bronkhorstspruit elopement weddingJanuary 20, 2014

posted in Elopement, Real Weddings

I’ve always been eager to cover an elopement, so when Jay & Irma contacted me about their small elopement-wedding, at Luiperdskloof Game Lodge in Bronkhorstpruit on the 9th of November 2013, I was beyond excited – and it was everything I thought it would be! Their wedding day was unpretentious & intimate and it was an absolute pleasure to be a part of it. Mr & Mrs Smith both looked amazing – I just adore Irma’s dress with it’s off-white ribbon! Bronkhorstspruit is a very picturesque venue and offered lovely backdrops for the photos.

Jani & Pieter are tying the knot later this month and before the big day decided to do a morning couple session with an urban feel. We ended up in Newtown with its cool graffiti backdrops – these two make a very gorgeous couple and are super sweet together so it was a really nice session! I’m glad it’s finally the month of November so that the countdown to their wedding day can begin!

Here’s their story (once again leaving this story in the couple’s mother tongue):
