STEFAN & CHELAINE | KAVINGA WEDDING
My brother Stefan & his wife, Chelaine, tied the knot in the Lowveld this August. It was a beautiful wedding on a very chilly day, but we had an amazing team who put everything together!

Stefan & Chelaine tied the knot in Nelspruit, at the stunning Kavinga venue. It was a really beautiful day and the couple (my brother and new sister-in-law), looked exquisite.
Stefan is my younger brother by 5 years, the last of my brothers to get married. I am a little sad that I don't have any more to photograph, but 3 brothers is more than enough. Stefan & Chelaine met when their guild got together for a braai...hahaha, so cute. Congratulations to you two! I hope you have a wonderful life, and look forward to being a part of your adventure!
It was an absolutely gorgeous day to remember with all my friends and family! It was also an amazing team to work with, Anene from Avah Creative Planning and of course Sarah Marie with the gorgeous flowers from Lush Floral, I loved working with you and hope we do this again soon.

Winter in the Lowveld is the absolute best. We celebrated the marriage of Jacques & Anzel this past winter and it was a blissful day! A beautiful outdoor wedding ceremony with the perfect weather and the scenic view of a golf course and the Crocodile River made this day even more special.
A lovely session with my cousin Anzel and her fiancé Jacques. We went out to a location close to our homes and photographed with the beautiful lowveld backdrop. I am very excited to photograph Anzel & Jacques wedding in June on our family farm!
I am so honoured to be able to photograph Hilma and Inge’s journey, starting with their engagement session, photographed in Nelspruit, at a wildlife reserve with a lucky couple of shots with the zebra’s roaming in the area. I also got to photograph Hilma’s two sweet Wirehaired Fox Terriers with the cutest little bowties. Their wedding day will follow in July by the sea. So much to look forward too.
Anje & Pieter in Paris, you might remember them from their safari wedding in Africa, but these two have been living in Paris for the last year and on a previous visit I got a chance to do a short mini session with them. We woke up early to get a couple of portraits of them at the Eiffel and then went on to the Louvre Gardens. Hope you enjoyed your year of Paris! xoxo

Another beautiful family member, Zelmarie I am so happy for you and Riaan and look forward to your big day!
Happy Friday everyone! Another week from this year gone just like that. Here is a very special blog post of my Brother, Stefan and Chelaine's engagement session.
I wish I could explain your eyes, and how the sound of your voice gives me butterflies. How your smile makes my heart skip a beat and how every time I'm with you, I feel so complete.
This is a very special session, for my cousin Marné and her fiancé, Luan! These two tied the knot about 2 weeks ago, so looking forward to blog their wedding too. But first, all the other shoots and weddings in between ;) Keep a look out on the blog, much more to come in the next couple of weeks.

My little brother got married...it's strange, to see your baby brother become a man, he is 7 years my junior and I used to look after my two younger brothers a lot when we were younger and when we got older, so in my mind they stay kids.
You're the first one when things turn out bad. You know I'll never be lonely, you're my only one, and I love the things, I really love the things that you do, You're my best friend.
Ooh, you make me live ~ Queen
A very special surprise engagement in Mauritius!
Because of you, I can feel myself slowly but surely becoming the me I have always dreamed of being. ~ Tyler Knott Gregson
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride; so I love you because I know no other way than this: where I do not exist, nor you, so close that your hand on my chest is my hand, so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep. ~ Sonnet XVII by Pablo Neruda ~
'I would love to say that you make me weak in the knees, but, to be quite upfront and completely truthful, you make my body forget it has knees at all.'

LOWVELD GREEN & PURPLE WEDDING
My cousin and her husbands big big day! How beautiful!
n Ware liefde storie ken geen einde nie!
Today I am blogging my beautiful cousin Zelmarie’s wedding to Riaan. They are such an amazing couple and I just loved being a part of their big day. They got married on our family farm and get this, the ceremony was smack bang in the middle of a fairway. Family & friends, gorgeous light, a stunning see through marquee and beautiful flowers made this wedding absolutely breathtaking.

This beautiful couple got married in one of the most beautiful parts of the country, a place that is close to where I grew up. Likweti is a beautiful game farm in the Whiteriver area. Pieter & Anje had an absolutely beautiful summers day - the weather was as perfect as this beautiful couple!

Happy Friday everyone! Another week from this year gone just like that. Here is a very special blog post of my Brother, Stefan and Chelaine's engagement session.
This is a very fresh, stunning and energising wedding, shot on a private farm, with a ceremony held in a airconditioned green house and the reception in a beautiful barn. Planned and styled by the absolutely amazing Marius from Weddings by Marius. The colours make me think of Christmas...in Africa of course!

I am very privileged to have photograph Minette & Stephen's wedding in October. Minette has been one of my friends since the age of 14 and I can honestly say that I have never had a dull moment with her. I loved being a part of this wedding (I was a bridesmaid too), it was the most fun I have ever had at a wedding.
