Jana & Neville’s wedding, Erinvale, Somerset West

Sunday, November 21st, 2010

I usually meet my couples before a wedding, but I only got to meet Jana and Neville on the day!  Jana got ready at Erinvale Estate in Somerset West with the two chattiest and sweetest flowergirls.  The church ceremony was in the lovely NG Kerk in Somerset West and the reception was held at Erinvale Estate.  Initially it looked like the rain was going to set in, but the sun came out and the day unfolded beautifully.  After dinner the music genre changed and everyone hit the dancefloor.  Another fun wedding – so far my wedding season has been amazing!

Triya & Idrissa, Straightway Head Hotel, Somerset West

Saturday, January 16th, 2010

Triya and Idrissa had their signing ceremony and reception at The Straighway Head Hotel in Somerset West. I was so happy to be shooting there again as it’s one of my favourite venues – it has wild flowers growing everywhere, and there is just so much open space and so many huge trees to enjoy.  Even on the sunniest of days, shady areas can always be found which is great for photographers having to shoot in the middle of the day.

Two years ago, I photographed Triya’s brother Karlinds wedding, so it was awesome to see so many familiar faces again.  Triya was stunning to photograph -  Idrissa made her laugh so much It was easy to capture so many beautiful moments between the two of them.

Natalie & Chris – Erinvale Estate, Somerset West

Saturday, November 7th, 2009

Every wedding has it’s challenges.  On what was ’supposed’ to be a summers day in Cape Town, ended up being one of the stormiest days of the year!  It bucketed down all day at Erinvale Estate, the wind blew in every direction and between my assistant and I we held onto the umbrella and camera equipment, while trying to find suitable spots to take photo’s without Natalie and Christ getting totally soaked!  Natalie and Chris and all their guests had flown in from the UK to have the wedding in South Africa.  For most of them, including the bridal couple, it was their first visit to  SA.  There was a bit of disappointment to start with, but then everyone accepted that unfortunately perfect weather can not be ordered and the best thing to do was to get on and just enjoy the day!  Noreen from Timeless Weddings, did an amazing job organising the wedding.

Natalie and Chris – I know your heart was set on a sunny day!  You both looked amazing and I appreciate you keeping your spirits up for the photo’s.    I hope your photo’s will be a reminder of your special day spent with family and friends and that you can look beyond the rain at the beauty of South Africa and visit again.
