When Sally, a former Air Hostess, contacted me to photograph her and Leighton’s wedding, she said she had chosen me because of the boudoir shoot I did on an aeroplane several months ago….! I haven’t photographed a wedding at Vrede-en-Lust in a while, so I was happy to get a chance to do their intimate wedding. Family and friends flew in from the UK and USA to celebrate the day with them. Weddings don’t always have to follow the traditional route: They first met guests on the lawn for drinks, followed by the couple shoot, speeches, ceremony and reception. It made for a super relaxed day where they could enjoy the wedding and fantastic weather with everyone.

The first time I have ever photographed a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes! In shoe heaven!

Vrede-en-Lust is one of the many beautiful wine estates in the Franschhoek area, and I love shooting weddings there. The day I photographed Elzanne & MJ’s wedding was also my birthday – and since I never think of shooting as work, I was so excited to be doing what I absolutely love on this double celebration of a day. Elzanne & MJ are both doctors, so as you can imagine, a huge part of the wedding party were doctors too! Flowers In The Foyer did the most stunning flowers and decor – black and white Baroque theme which was elegant, fresh and classy. Elzanne & MJ, thanks for being so laid back on your wedding day and incredibly awesome to photograph!

Boys will be boys!
