About Me

I am a mother of three boys (three boys, being punished for my sins!) and have been a fan of photography for years. I started shooting weddings seriously about five years ago. With the arrival of my twins, I decided to reduce my working hours in order to spend more time at home with my boys. Using photography to make up for the loss of income was a natural progression.

This is where you will be able to catch regular excerpts of what I am up to...

Last weekend Tanja and I got up at 4am (...Yip! no typo here 4am in the morning!) and travelled to Clarens. Situated in the foothills of the Maluti Mountains....The Golden Gate National Park was the venue of our last wedding.

 

The tranquil ambience combined with the scenic views made for a spectacular backdrop for Liza and David's wedding. You may remember the couple from their enagagement session...and I must admit that since then I have been excited for a couple of reasons....one they are naturals infront of the camera & interact as if they were on their own and secondly I have been looking  forward to shooting in Clarens. Liza was brought up on a farm in Clarens and knew exactly where she wanted photographs to be taken.

 

Their ceremony was held outside overlooking the majestic mountains....and what an increadible view, but what stood out from the grandeur of nature was infact the "grandness" of their love. We can always tell when a couple is really and truly in love, and one thing is for sure David and Liza are really in love.

 

I also have to mention that in his speech David managed to say a couple of words in Afrikaans...well done "Dawie"! So here you go guys a little preview from their wedding day......   liza-david-blog04.jpg liza-david-blog03.jpg liza-david-blog05.jpg liza-david-blog10.jpg liza-david-blog07.jpg liza-david-blog20.jpg liza-david-blog06.jpg liza-david-blog13.jpg liza-david-blog08.jpg liza-david-blog09.jpg liza-david-blog11.jpg liza-david-blog15.jpg liza-david-blog12.jpg liza-david-blog14.jpg liza-david-blog17.jpg liza-david-blog18.jpg

Hi Andrea, these are stunning, love the colours and must agree with you they seem incredibly relaxed in front of the lens. Weekend away weddings are tremendous fun, the atmosphere and vibe of everybody involved just lends itself to stunning imagery. And you have done yourself and your clients proud. Thanks for sharing.
Take care
Mario
