Winter in KZN is always perfect for weddings. Hilma & Inge’s wedding day was stunning, even though it was a very windy day, the sun was shining and everyone was having a good time. They tied the knot at Olwandle Estate near Ballito overlooking the beautiful Indian Ocean. They had a gorgeous reception setup by Simply B and Inge wore a beautiful one-of-a-kind Anel Botha Couture wedding dress.

GREY AND GREEN LOWVELD WEDDING
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.

I loved the green and grey color palette and the beautiful Anemone flower that complimented the florals. A classic and beautiful wedding by wonderful creatives.

NELSPRUIT ENGAGEMENT SESSION
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.
If you have been following my blog, you will know I have a very big family whom I get to photograph very often. Here is Inge and Hilma’s engagement session. Inge is Anje’s sister and my fathers’ cousins’ daughter (my cousin twice removed?). Not sure what we call each other in english terms but we are family!

PARIS COUPLE PORTRAITS
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

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!

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.
