Attie & Janine Britstown Wedding | 06.10.2012

What can I say!! In the middle of the Karoo (nowhere!) there is the cutest little hotel EVER and this is where the magic of Attie and Janine's wedding took place. I couldn't take enough photographs ... hehe! Attie & Janine, thank you so much for making me a part of your incredible day! Hope that the happiness you experienced will be reflected in these photographs. It certainly brought a huge smile to my face while editing! :)


Keep calm and count down the sleeps

As the end of the year draws near, I realise how tired everyone is! Yet how far we have come! Most of you probably already heard about the great and exciting news: That as from coming January, I will be starting to live my dream of working for myself and doing photography FULL-TIME!! YES!!! No more waiting forever for your wedding photos and no more standing in line to book a shoot over the weekend, as I will then be able to book shoots during the week as well.

Although all these great and amazing things are in line, there is still ALOT that needs to happen before then! Lots of gorgeous weddings to shoot, lots of things to sort out before I leave my full-time job and LOTS of weddings still to edit! For those of you waiting patiently for your wedding photos to get done ... THANK YOU for your patience and understanding! From next year I will be able to concentrate on my true passion. Thanks again for everyone who supports and loves my photographs! You all made this possible! Looking forward to share more awesome weddings and shoots soon, looking forward to some rest over Christmas and new beginnings in the New year ... until then ... Keep calm and count down the sleeps with me.  :D

Mark & Priscilla wedding | 11.08.2012


Oh my goodness! Where do I start with this wedding. When I think back to the day, there are so many things that stand out. I can remember the day I first met Mark & Priscilla for coffee. Priscilla showed me all their ideas for the wedding and I remember thinking "I'm so lucky, I CAN'T wait!!". Their wedding was so much more AWESOMENESS that I could ever imagine, and it surpassed all my expectations. And to top it all I had the opportunity to work with Evert and his team from Rooistoeltv. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE! The decor was incredible, the couple was incredible, the "company" was incredible and all the elements (The August wind, lighting and the cutest venue EVER - Slightly Nutty) played together to create these photos. Mark & Priscilla!!!! Thank you so much for including me in your special day. I hope you LOVE these! :) A special thanks to Mandie Niemann who assisted me for the day. I enjoy working with you!

Frikkie & Janine Wedding | 21.04.2012


I LOVED this AUTUMN Wedding! The red leaves at the guest house gave me goosebumbs! And the rain gave us just about enough time to take these gorgeous photos! It was such a privilege to spend the day with Frikkie and Janine and to capture their special memories. They are both such sincere people and I feel honoured to have met them. Janine does everything according to the book and she made me feel so special when she hand-delivered a wedding invite to me a few months before the wedding! I hope you two will have a blessed marriage, may it be even more blessed than you wedding day! Enjoy each others company and may you be extremely happy!

Johan & Nikki Wedding | 31.03.2012


Johan & Nikki got married on the first ICY COLD and RAINY Winter's day. They were planning to get married in the forest, and I prayed so hard for the rain to stop, because I just knew these photos would be amazing.

As she walked down that red carpet with her grandfather (in the forest, as they planned), I was so thankful as the rays of sunlight broke through the clouds and trees. It was MAGICAL! What was even more amazing was that, before the wedding, even though it was cold and rainy, Johan and Nikki looked as if they both just knew it would turn out to be perfect and the happiest day of their lives!

To the tune of 'Amazing Grace', played by a bagpipe, everyone (yes, including me!) was trying to hold back their tears. You could see that this truely was the best day of Johan and Nikki's lives, just by the way they looked at each other. May you two never stop looking at each other without that sparkle in your eyes! Thank you for letting me be a part of your special day and witness your love for each other!

Marnus & Althea Wedding | 10.03.2012



I just knew this was going to be a beautiful day, and a BEAUTIFUL wedding! And it was more than that. Everything played together, the clouds, the venue, the location she showed me where we were to take the photographs, EVERYTHING! You all have probably seen my excitement on facebook the week before...hehe.

As I got to spend time with the family while they were getting ready, I realise why everything was so perfect...They all adore God and I just knew then, He adores them too! I don't think I've ever cried this much on a wedding - it was just so emotional. YES, I know, the photographer is not supposed to cry.

Anyway...Marnus and Althea, it was a blessing to be part of your day...thank you for including me!! Enjoy the photos!
