Ricky & Marnelle

I'm so excited to upload this wedding! Marnelle and Ricky are both living in London, but decided to have their wedding in Yzerfontein on the west coast. And I had the privilege to shoot it! I love the west coast, because the skies are always so blue there. But this weekend the weather surprised us with a very strong wind! I have to confess I was a bit skeptical about taking my camera equipment on the beach because of sand, but I'm so glad I did! I got the most amazing shots!

Special thanks to Marnelle and Ricky for being so daring to go on to the beach :) and especially for marnelle for being such a fun and relaxed bride! What a great couple! I wish you all the best!

Danie & Renae

Last weekend I went up to Jo'burg again to shoot Danie and Renae's wedding. The wedding was held in the Olifantsfontein area and the reception was at Klein Kaap. The church was magnificent! Made me think of those church buildings in Germany...we just needed a bit of snow :) Renae looked like an angel and they both made beautiful photos...
