It’s always great to get emails from former clients. Since the launch of my new website I haven’t posted any emails or thank you’s from clients. I thought I’ll just post a few about what people have said…
Dear Christine
Johan and I would like to thank you for the beautiful photos you took on our wedding day. The photos exceeded our highest expectations. Our friends and family are so impressed by the quality and the originality of your work. You were certainly able to catch that “special something”. Johan and I were able to completely relax with you and your assistant which allowed us to have fun whilst you were taking photos. We couldn’t have asked for better and you made our beautiful memories even more so.
We will gladly recommend you to anyone who requires exceptional photography, fantastic service and value for money.
Thank you once again and our best wishes accompany you always.

This is a part of a letter Marnelle sent me to give me permission to enter her photos into the Sarie Bruid competition…
“Christine was vital to the success and the wonderful memories of our wedding. Using diverse styles, settings and angles, we have a broad collection of photos capturing the events in such a way that we can recall small details, emotions, the smells, sounds and the atmosphere.
Christine’s passion and love for people and her work together with her flexible approach resulted in a great experience for everyone involved. The photo session was a lot of fun with ‘soen haar!’ definitely the catchphrase that springs to mind. Christine’s spontaneity and daring to risk her expensive equipment, turned a very strong south easterly wind on a sandy beach in a stunning setting producing magnificent photos.
Through her easy going, though assertive and professional approach, she also established a good working relationship with the videographer, resulting in everyone knowing what is expected and a very relaxed atmosphere for all to have a fantastic time. Her organisation and flexibility let us and the wedding guests to be completely at ease and take pleasure in the experience.
We are still receiving compliments and comments that her photos are the best wedding photos ever seen. It was a privilege to have had this great photographer as part of our wedding and I definitely recommend her not only as the wedding photographer of the year, but of the millennium.
Yours sincerely,
Marnelle Pessegueiro (London, 2008)
Marli also wrote some great things in her letter for the competition…(sorry for the Afrikaans)
“Christine as fotograaf was sekerlik die beste besluit wat ons geneem het rakende ons troue. Dit was heerlik om saammet iemand so gemaklik, oorspronklik, talentvol en uiters professioneel te werk. Ek beveel haar orals aan! Die foto’s het ons wildste verwagtinge oortref! Elkeen was vars, baie kreatief en van hoogstaande gehalte… sien vir julleself!!”
