Ryan and Lee’s wedding was published in the March issue of Top Billing magazine. What a privilege to be showcased in such a fabulous publication.
This morning I woke up with one goal. My goal was to blog Joanne & Carl, as well as Tamryn & Jeandre’s weddings. These two couples got married the weekend before I left for the States and I have to thanks them dearly for being so awesome! I know you guys have been waiting to see your photos for a few weeks now, but today is the day!
I love British weddings. The couples are always friendly (or maybe I’ve just been lucky :), the guests always have a great time and the hats and hair pieces the woman wear are to die for! Joanne and Carl, together with friends and family, flew over to South Africa to tie the knot in the garden of the Steenberg Estate, Cape Town.
fter almost 24 hours of traveling the last thing I thought I’d do, was to sit in front of my computer and start typing. But I just couldn’t resist. I have been away from home for the past 3 weeks. The reason for my travels was to attend the world’s largest wedding & portrait photography conference & trade show, called WPPI 2010.
If there is one store that I would loooove to open up in South Africa it would be Starbucks. It’s the coolest coffee place and I just love the look and feel of it. The funny thing is I’m not actually a coffee drinker, but I love a Latte! With a single espresso. So while we were standing in the line for my Vanilla Cinnamon Latte, I snapped a few photos to remember the look, feel and smell of yummy coffee.
Every city I visit, I just have to shoot some black and white photos. I love the simplicity of the lines and the different variety of white, grey and black. Black and white photos are just super awesome!
It’s been almost 2 weeks since iaan and I left South Africa on a 22 hour flight to the USA. Our first city to visit was New York City. It was freezing cold, with an icy wind howling through the streets. I put on my boots, jacket and there we went. We walked and walked and walked, just looking at all the shops and the billboards. We just observed, took in and snapped my camera.
Today is our 4th day in New York city. It’s about 1 degree outside and we’re ready to start the day. But before we head out, I want to share this set of pictures with you. It sums up the way I see New York*. A massive city filled with colour, lights and lots of little details…
Tomorrow, the 4th of March will be my 26th birthday. It will be my first birthday away from home. It’s so strange to think I’ll only start celebrating the day here in the US, and all my friends and family will already be half way through the day in South Africa.
Everyone has been asking, so here it is. My 2nd workshop!
Karen & Hannelien from MiraclesPhoto in Johannesburg emailed me a few months ago and asked me to host a private workshop for the 2 of them. After thinking of everything I’d like to cover and do we decided to open up the workshop to 4 more photographers.
The other day a friend and I was walking through the mall. We popped into CNA and as usual, I headed straight to the wedding magazines. I paged through a few overseas mags and then I found this local little mag (only A5 in size) called My Day. As I was paging through I saw Michele & Chris’s wedding, which I photographed in March 2009:) I just smiled and then headed over to the cashier… had to buy this one :)
