Photography in Stellenbosch

Have a look at the recent weddings on my website, and contact me for queries to book me to capture your own special moments of such memorable day! I'm your wedding photographer in Cape Town. I love to capture beautiful, natural moments.

coffee (but don’t actually drink it), the air just before it starts to rain, sunscreen in summer, cinnamon buns (it tastes even better if you smell each bite), lavender wafting through my house in spring, Christmas (the tree, the candles, the food), thatch roofs (they remind me of a holiday spot we to went to, growing up) kiddies giggling, thunderstorms (they make me want to snuggle), popcorn popping, my husbands car pulling up the driveway, the intro music to movies, nature’s noises when I’m out of the city, my daughter sleeping deeply, waves rhythmically washing up on the beach, the timer when I’m waiting for baked goodies to come out the oven. I’ll often make cards, presents or draw scribbles and turn them into people or things. Simply add any prints, enlargements, albums you would like, or leave them out. If you would like a your day or moments captured in a real, natural and beautiful way we, could be a great fit. We laughed, we cried, we have eaten the entire packet of chocolates and we marvel at these beautiful photos. You have exceeded all our expectations in capturing our wedding day, so we can for many years from now still feast on these amazing memories. Each album is luxurious and high quality, beautifully designed and laid out. The pages are filled with a neat and beautiful streamlined design that display your images in either full page spread or two images page. They expected maybe half of their guests would be able to make the trip with them from Pretoria to Cape Town to witness their wedding. To their delight and surprise almost every single one of them made arrangements and sacrifices to be with them on a day they wouldn't miss for anything! Thats the love and bond that shone through on their special day too. The sea air was breezy but refreshing, and the reception warm with love and laughter. When he holds her, you can see she feels safe and when he looks into her eyes you visibly see him light up. Their wedding was simple, gorgeous and focused entirely, as it should be on this amazing choice to be together forever, fiercely supported and championed by their friends and family.
