Less than a week ago I received a call from Roelien, asking about my availability for today. As it turned out I was free and agreed to photograph her and Willie’s wedding. Roelien mentioned to me that it was going to be a small intimate affair that shouldn’t take too long. Boy was I surprised...
My standard albums have 20 double page spreads but I sometimes design a couple more just to give my clients a choice of pages to include in their album. However, with Henk and Chantal’s album I could’nt stop designing. There were just so many good images that could not be left out. Anyhow…here’s the pages...
This is Carl and Maria’s wedding album. The final product will be my biggest, the Exclusive wedding album, which is a wopping 30 x 78 cm when opened. They will also receive two of my Brag books. This was such an easy album to design due mostly to the great images we made on the...
I’ll be shooting Kobus and Madre’s wedding this coming Saturday. Today we did the e-session….on an bit short notice, if I may add. For those of you that do not know, an e-session is an engagement photo shoot with the couple before the wedding. Very often, a couple may require photos of themselves as part...
Two days ago I got a few new toys. I don’t want to bore you non-photographers with technical details, but what it boils down to is that I can now take photographs in harsh sunlight and combine it with artificial flashlight. If done correctly, this can create a truly unique look to one’s images. Most...
This is the pre-design of Edniel and Tammy’s wedding album. I shot their wedding two weeks ago.
I met Ashley about three weeks ago at Evander’s matric farewell and I was just dumbstruck at how beautiful her dress was. Later that evening I invited her to do a photo shoot with me…with that specific dress. When I made the shoot arrangements with Ashley’s mom, Linda, it came out that Ashley herself designed...
He’s from England…she’s from Poland….they met in Africa. Today was Carl and Maria’s big day and I was so fortunate to photography this beautiful wedding. As part of the couple shoot we used a completely custom built American-style Hot-Rod…what a magnificent machine.
After almost three months without doing any weddings (winter) I kicked off the new season with Edniel and Tammy-Lou’s wedding. The muscles were a bit lazy in the beginning, but I soon warmed up and I had a blast. This was also only my second time shooting at the Koro-koro Safari Lodge…Secunda needs more of...
This is Berndt and Ria on their great day. They decided to do things a bit differently….a late morning wedding….a lunch reception…followed by a late afternoon couple shoot.
What a pleasure it was to work on Martin and Christelle’s wedding album. Here are all the pages, including the cover, that I designed. Let me know what you think.
It’s been a while since I worked at Galagos, and today I was pleasantly surprised at just how beautiful this place is. And to really make my day, I had a fabulous couple. Martin and Christelle…you two were hot-stuff.
When I have so many good images to work with, I just can not stop designing album spreads. This could be one of my best albums to date.
When I was still in the engineering field, I use to work in the same building as Thiemo and Minette and often saw them in the hallways. When I saw them today, especially Minette, I was just blown away….this was one hot couple. When I started shooting them together, I soon realized why they are...
I see a lot of weddings, but this church ceremony was a first for me. Such a simple idea, but so uniquee, so effective and so beautiful. Henri and Madelein’s wedding was held on a farm near Leandra….between the trees….under an open blue sky….I just loved it. By now, I’m quite use to “farmers” being...
Marylin Monroe is not dead….and she is here in our valley…at Grasslands. For a few moments, I was completely dumbstruck…that’s how beautiful Audri looked when I entered the bridal suite for the pre-bridal shoot. I’m sure you will agree when you look at the images. Pieter and Audri’s wedding were once again one of those...
This is Pieter and Audri’s (Marylin Monroe) wedding album. They opted for a Classic wedding album with 14 additional double page spreads.
Albie and Mirinda got one of my Exclusive wedding albums as well as two Brag books of the same design.
Today I did things differently. I still have to find out whether it was good or bad….but I’m sure you’ll let me know. Please tell me what you think. Normally, we photographers, choose locations for our couple shoot that are clean, private and beautiful. Places like gardens or open fields. Today I used the town...
