JACQUES & BIANCA
GREYSTONES, LANGEBAAN
GREYSTONES. IT’S PLACE OF GREAT MEMORIES FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY. BRAAIS. FRIENDS. BOARD GAMES. BEAUTIFUL SUNSETS. IT HAD BEEN A WHILE SINCE I’D BEEN BACK TO THIS WONDERFUL HOUSE. THIS TIME, A NEW LAYER WAS ABOUT TO BE ADDED – JACQUES AND BIANCA’S WEDDING.
IT’S PRETTY DARNED COOL WHEN YOUR OWN DAUGHTER HAS GROWN UP WATCHING YOU SHOOT WEDDINGS AND THEN GETS TO DO YOUR BRIDE’S MAKE-UP. CHECK OUT GILLI’S WEBSITE AT WWW.GILLIWILLIAMS.CO.ZA
WITH JUST 25 GUESTS AND WITHIN 350 METRES OF WHERE I LIVE, JACQUES AND BIANCS’ WEDDING WAS NOT GOING TO HAVE ME PULLING ANY MUSCLES WHEN IT CAME TO STRESS. BUT THEN THESE TWO PEOPLE ARE PRETTY-MUCH ALSO OF THE UN-STRESSED VARIETY. BIANC’S KNEW WHAT SHE WANTED FROM HER PHOTOS AND JACQUES WAS WELL, SUPREMELY MELLOW. BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG. I FELT THIS NIGGLING UNEASE. AND THEN, IT STRUCK ME. THIS GUY WASN’T WHO HE SAID HE WAS. THIS DUDE WAS NONE OTHER THAN…
VIN DIESEL BABY.
SO THAT’S HOW WE ROLLED THIS WEDDING MAN. WITH ATTITUDE.
I LOVED BIANCA’S DRESS. IT WAS JUST AWESOME FROM A PHOTOGRAPHIC PERSPECTIVE. NATURAL, LIGHT, PLAYFUL, CAREFREE. THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE WAS TRYING TO GET SHOTS OF THEM WITHOUT ANY KITESURFERS IN THE BACKGROUND, WHICH BELIEVE ME, WAS AN ENORMOUS CHALLENGE OF EPIC PROPORTIONS. BUT WE NAILED IT NONETHELESS.
