Wedding | Anél & Hannes | Picardie Guest Farm, Paarl – Part 2
Part 2 of Anél and Hannes’s (I never know when there should be an “s” after an apostrophe when the word ends in an “s”) wedding photos. What a shoot it was indeed. We started 5 meters from the ceremony area at the dam and then moved to the vineyards and throughout the farm and then jumped back in the car and drove to the Afrikaans Taal Monument which was just around the corner. They were the perfect couple to photograph and could go from being quite serious to hilariously funny in seconds! Dit was so lekker om...

I met Anél and Hannes last year April when I shot Anca and Jandré’s wedding just outside Pretoria. It’s always great when you shoot a couple who you met at another awesome couple’s wedding, because you just know that they’ll be just as great in front of the camera and boy oh boy was I surprised! These two were up for anything! The variety of shots and locations that we shot at in their just under an hour couple shoot was amazing. And as soon as we got the shot Anél would jump back in my car and off we would go to the...

Part 2 of Taryn and Greg’s wedding at Kirstenbosch and this is my favourite part! Typical of Cape Town this ‘summer’ it started looking like it was going to rain just as we finished the family shots and started with the couple shoot, instead we got a nice bit of cloud cover and soft light to play with. I have to admit that I love a Jewish wedding reception, they party and celebrate like no one else can (and I’ve been at weddings where people party). So besides the fact that I thought for two days that I had a broken toe...

What a way to end off 2011! A perfect summer day, a wedding in Kirstenbosch gardens and a couple who went all out to make it a day that their guests won’t soon forget! Taryn and Greg got married (some said “finally!”) and they also caused the biggest blog post that I’ve ever done. So go get yourself a cup of tea while you wait for these to load, Part 2 of their wedding will be up a bit later. Thank you for being so accommodating, for letting us share in your special day and for making this the best job in the...

Astrid and Jéan tied the knot at Morgenhof Wine Estate just outside of Stellenbosch. It was hot (finally a wedding where we saw a bit of sweat), seems like summer is finally starting to come to the Western Cape! The light was fantastic during the couple shoot and I loved the these two were up for anything…even walking into a part of the garden covered in plants! Loved the bird theme of the wedding decor and the wooden key rings were a great idea! Thank you for being such sports on your wedding day and I hope you enjoy your...

The weather at weddings this season has really been different. I can’t remember it being this windy / rainy / cloudy / cool at weddings I did last Novermber / December. Even though the wind was howling and creating a wind tunnel effect at one side of the tent it still didn’t stop Lisa and Garth from having an amazing wedding! This is Part 1 of their wedding photo post, Part 2 has their couple shoot and a bit of the lunchtime reception at Jonkershuis, Groot Constantia. I’ve started paying a bit more attention to the...

This is Part 2 of Shu-Wen and Ian’s wedding photos, from their wedding at Kirstenbosch Gardens. Perfect afternoon light, a bride and groom who didn’t mind walking down a hill into a river, a few props, a groom who couldn’t believe his eyes when his bride walked down the aisle and a bride with two (yes, TWO) wedding dresses! Shu-Wen had a second dress, in a more traditional Chinese style for the reception. Thank you for being such troopers during your couple shoot, for the laughs and for loosing an earring (and Ian finding it...
