I think Izandi has been watching to much youtube to be quite honest. Because the next thing it’s ceremony time and before we know it, the bestmen, followed by the bridesmaids come dancing down the aisle. Now normally this would have had me going: ‘okaaaaaaay, this could be interesting.’ But I was very pleasantly surprised [...]
Now here’s something different! Welcome to Herman and Jonel’s connoisseur wedding at the very swish L’ Ermitage in Franschhoek. Different because Herman and Jonel decided to opt for 2 services and 2 receptions – the first for family, the second for friends. So yeeeees, it was a long day holding a camera that felt [...]
I’ve heard a lot of really special speeches at weddings. I’ve seen mom’s cry, dad’s cry, bride’s give it horns and even groom’s end up in tears. A lot of times it’s goose-bump stuff and very humbling to hear people really just be themselves and speak from the heart. It’s often very powerful and I’m [...]
Nobody really wants it to rain at a wedding – probably least of all the photographer. A nice cool day with a bit of cloud around is always nice, but rain, nu-uh. But at Barbara and Jose’s wedding it was almost as if the clouds were conspiring to do the dirty. ‘Rings, first kiss, signing [...]
Welcome to Mario and Mellisa’s wedding, alternatively known as the: Does anyone have a Portuguese language handbook handy?’ wedding. Okay sure, a lot of people spoke English, but there were a few key players who um, didn’t. So me saying something like: ‘could I ask you 5 people over there to please move 15 paces [...]
When it came to Kev and Roxanne’s wedding, I think good old James Brown said it best: ‘Whoa-oa-oa! I feel good, I knew that I would, now, I feel good, I knew that I would, now – so good, so good, I got you -bum-bum-bum-bum yeeeeeaaaah.’ Because that’s exactly what this wedding was – full-on, [...]
Every so often a bride and groom come along and ask me to shoot the two of them before the ceremony actually takes place. Now I know that a lot of people in the USA like doing it this way, but quite honestly, I don’t. And the reason I don’t is because I’m absolutely petrified [...]
The last time I was in Betty’s Bay was about 12 years ago. It’s grown a lot since then. The last time I saw James and Liesl was when we got together for their engagement shoot. James seems to have grown a lot since then. The guy isn’t exactly vertically challenged. So I found myself [...]
In about 90 years from now, when I’m old and grey, sitting on my stoep and sticking chicken bones into my pockets off my plate, I’m going to look back at all the weddings I ever shot and fondly remember all the little stories that went into each one. So while I still do have [...]
Take a look at these photos. Do you see any stress levels? I don’t. But let me tell you, stress levels at Dawie and Mien’s wedding were not just high, they were through the roof and into the stratosphere. Seriously so. Not because of wedding day nerves, but because Mien’s brother Carl had gone and [...]
