Almari Niewoudt assisted me and second shot on the day – have a look at some of her work on facebook under “Almari Photography” – her website will be up and running shortly!

Thanks Gavin and Andrea for going with the flow – l loved shooting your wedding!

I love the rain – and along with the rain came the most stunning gray clouds and the most perfect light.  It was one of those weddings where just everything was cool – black and white Baroque theme for the decor,  excited bridesmaids that totally fussed around the bride, a dress to die for,   ‘Audrey Hepburn-esque’ bride, and a doting groom.  It was as if the day unfolded like a movie, and moments were just happening the whole day and I, of course, was in photographers heaven!  “Adamant Soundz” (adamobile@mweb.co.za) kicked off the music for the evening and had everyone on the dance floor!  Flowerheart created the most stunning flower displays using white roses.

Shaun and Kathryn – you were both such troopers in the rain, and I had a blast being your photographer!
