Perfect light, loving couple, beautiful bride, great guests and a super stunning setting are the words that come to mind then I think of Lisa and Richard’s wedding at Vreden Lust.

Ine & Reinoud had a small intimate wedding with friends and family under the oak trees of Palmiet estate in Paarl. Ine & Reinoudt are both from the Netherlands but they are currently working in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Gemma is originally from Guernsey Island and Cobus is a South African. They were both working for the same company in Guernsey and met at a work function. Gemma told me that at that stage Cobus was a bit home sick and she chatted to him in Afrikaans…and that’s how it all began.

Apparently they have a special place close to a light house they walk to every day and one day on their walk Cobus decided to propose. Gemma and Cobus booked me for their wedding in April 2010, but they were in Cape Town recently to sort out all the final arrangements for their wedding and I did an engagement shoot for them on the beach of Campsbay.

As you know I ran a free wedding give away any where in the world. And in just one week I had 118 entries!

I recently decided to create a Facebook fan page to keep you updated! You’re more than welcome to use this page to ask me questions about anything.

I recently received many questions about my new website. Today you can watch a video that iaan made (from PlusPlusMinus Design & Development) to explain how the site works.

Claudia arrived with 3 suitcases of clothes and accessories. At first I was a bit overwhelmed, but then I saw the most dress designed by Kobus Dippenaar and I knew that was it! I almost did the entire shoot with that dress. It just suited Claudia perfectly!

Claudia told me the story: “The actual story started on the day before my 21st birthday. Ricky and I were on the Greek Island of Santorini, Greece, aboard an 18th century style-like boat cruising into the sunset, listening to the soft music of a saxophone, myself and Ricky were romantically watching the beautiful sunset…

It started out as a normal Sunday morning. I had the Saturday off and Sunday was going to be 2d day off, chilling at home, or so I though… But then my phone rang, on the other side was Sacha Waldman, a well known New York based photographer. At first I had no idea what was going on and then he explained to me that his fiancy and he were in Cape Town and they decided that they were going to get married… today

What a privilege for a little girl to still have all her grandparents! I arrived at Margeaux’s house and all the grandparents were waiting in the lounge. It was a big occasion. Photo day with little Helen-Marie!
