One year ago I received an email from Adriaan Pienaar, he was looking for a wedding photographer and at the bottom of his email was his signature that said “Adii: WordPress rockstar”. It sounded interesting and even though I had no idea what word-press meant at that time I clicked an found his website. At that stage I was desperate for a new site (Iaan was still studying at the time and had very little time to help me, and I wanted a new site like..YESTERDAY!) So I mailed him and after a cup of coffee the new site was on it’s way. The site was launched on the 1st of May 2008. Little did I know how great word-press was until I started using it! Adii really helped literally jump form 200 page views per month to 33,000 per month, to date, by building a custom design for my needs. Which included a blog, which I think was one of the first South African custom wedding photography blogs if I’m not mistaking…

Yesterday I did a shoot for him for publication and marketing. Here are some of my favourite shots.

    Great pics there!

    I think the red sculpture in the background is good as it defines what Adii does – build things from the ground up – if that makes sense with how he works.

    Already twittered it but what the heck.

    For me it would be something like “Oh mama!!! When’s the next flight to Cape Town ;)” but then you’re already taken and so am I. But on a more professional note: Very nice and tho I don’t “really” know you, those pictures seems to fit your personality to a T.
