Vanessa & Kevin, “One And Only” Hotel, Cape Town

Vanessa got ready at her mom Maria’s apartment in Mouille Point with a stunning  view of the World Cup stadium – from the balcony it looked like a hovering space ship!

I was excited about shooting at The One & Only Hotel at the Waterfront – the energy in Cape Town is so different to that of the winelands.  The decor and lighting was spectacular and the cake a work of art – I was so excited I didn’t know where to start!

Jorge Castro Tenor was flown in to sing at the wedding – he has sung with Pavarotti! His powerful voice and unrivalled energy left everyone spellbound.  This was a real treat as it added to the elegance  of the wedding day.  Vanessa & Kevin were awesome to photograph – both were a little shy, but it added to the charm and beauty of the photographs .  I did the bridal shoot at The One & Only, as the whole of the outside area is just incredibly beautiful and private.   Thanks to both Vanessa & Kevin for being so warm and welcoming.
