Anna & Dirk celebrated their wedding with friend and family from all around the world on the stunning Grand Provence Estate in Franschhoek.

I could probably tell you their proposal story, but how much better can you get than the bride telling you the story herself :)

Janette & Patrick live in Johannesburg, but Janette decided to spoil her husband with a weekend down in the Cape to celebrated their 20 year anniversary. Congratulation on a wonderful milestone guys! May there be many more! x

If you love “old school cool”, you’d want everything in Lucy’s house. Lucy lives in Wellington and when I did their first family shoot I thought I was going to faint, just because she has so many cool props around her house. Lucy and her husband, Duan bought a old farm house and renovated it. The house is surrounded with the most beautiful pots, chairs and everything else a photographer could dream of.

This year Lucy asked me to come and shoot her sister and together with all 3 kids. So we played around and had some fun..

I got all excited when Yolandé told me about her new baby: An online magazine called “Life, Love and Weddings”. If you’re a fan of beautiful things, this one is a must read! Yolandé and her team has been working on this for months and when she finally sent me the link I was blown away by the beautiful feeling they created through out the magazine. This winter issue is inspired by Estelle’s gorgeous farm wedding. It’s all about vintage, farm decor, yummy recipes, and stunning bridal inspiration. This magazine is viewable online for free and can also be ordered on cd if you have a slow connection :)

Here are a few pages with my photos and the cover shot…*happy dance*!!

A big thank you to Yolandé and her team for the professional manner in which they handeled my images and for the amazing service! You guys are going to go a long way!

In a few hours iaan and I will be on our way to München, Germany to shoot my first international destination wedding! I’m sooo excited to shoot in a totally different part of the world and what a privilege to shoot in one of my favourite: Germany! Just so you know I have a little surprise for you. There is one post scheduled for almost every day until I come back on the 2d of June :) And if you want to follow all my random doings, follow me on Facebook or twitter. So until then, I wouldn’t be answering any emails.

Sharlene & Rene celebrated their love under the trees of the sundial garden at Simon’s at Groot Constantia. I met up with Sharlene and the girls where they got dressed at the 12 Apostele’s Hotel in Camps Bay. Thereafter we drove over the mountain towards the Constantia.

When I ask iaan for a reason for his random doings, he normally replies with this statement: “Because I can”. Now don’t take this statement wrong, it doesn’t have anything to do with being arrogant, it just means : “I don’t always need a though through reason for doing something.”

I totally have the best clients ever! Every time I receive an email or a thank you or a little note, I smile. And in some or other special way I feel like a friend rather than their photographer when I leave the wedding. And this wedding was no different! Lindi & Anton enquired for their wedding a few months ago and unfortunately I was booked, but then Anton said they were going to move the wedding to a date that I was available. Wow.

This is just a little note to tell you, you’re on my mind!

This was a very special morning, but let me start from the beginning. I received an email from Anriette that said that she and Francois was going to have a very small wedding on monday morning the 19th of April. She wanted me to do some ceremony, couple and family portraits.
