As I’m sitting here writing this, it’s about 9° Celsius outside, which basically means that it’s somewhat chilly. But shortly, very shortly, all of that is about to change. Because wedding season in the Cape means blistering, searing heat at times. Last March for example I shot a wedding in Franschhoek where the mercury shot [...]
Some people at a wedding are actually quite important. For example, the bride and groom are quite important or there wouldn’t be a wedding at all. The minister is also important, but his role is quite fleeting. The parents are also important (since generally speaking, they’re the one’s coughing up for the day’s proceedings, not [...]
Your wedding day should be the most amazingly awesome day of your life. Wonderful. Now let me tell you that things do go wrong at weddings. A few I’ve seen are the Best Man forgetting the rings, dad breaking his ankle the night before, a cake imploding on itself, a bride arriving an hour and [...]
You’ve stayed up all night together, argued together, played backgammon together, hit the beach together, cried together, and if the truth be told, you’ve probably even slept in the same bed together – on more than one occasion. So one thing is beyond dispute here – you were made for each other and yes, you [...]
BOOK YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER EARLY
I deem it so important to book your wedding photographer early that I’ve actually decided to write an article on it. This year alone I have already turned away in excess of 30 couples simply because they left booking too late. Some were fine with it, others were devastated [...]
Kids at weddings. ah, what a wonderful subject. Not for the fainthearted I tell you. They’re just full of surprises – good surpises and very, very bad surprises. They’re either eliciting ‘ooohs’ and ‘aaaahs’ from your guests as they trundled unsteadily down the aisle, or they’re bringing the entire house down with ‘look mommy, that [...]
I’d like to take a moment to deviate for once on writing about weddings. Instead, I‘d like to scare the wits out any couple about to get married. The subject goes something like this: ‘honey, whooose your mamma?’
So, what’s driven me to write this article? Simple – my wedding couples. I consistently ask them, no, [...]
First time occurrences in life are huge. Like the first time you recognised your mother (although you probably don’t remember it), your first day at school, that first somewhat clumsy kiss, the first time you stood up for yourself, your first salary – you get the idea. Big moments. Wonderful moments. Unforgettable stuff (refer back [...]
Picture the scene. It’s 9.47pm. The wedding dinner is done and dusted, the speeches are still echoing in your ears, the First Dance is receding into the corridors of history and now it’s time for you to kick back, relax and let your hair down. You look across at your amazingly beautiful new bride and [...]
I’m scared. A Bachelor Party is one thing, but a Hen’s Party, now there’s another thing altogether. From what I can gather, it’s hardly for the fainthearted. There used to be a time when all the girls got together, dressed the bride-to-be in seriously odd clothing and made her eat a Lunch Bar out of [...]
