Chris & Teresa are my sister-in-law, Genevieve’s grandparents. They have been married for 51 years. Thats two lifetimes of memories, so where did it all start? Chris is such a good story teller, and I’m afraid that I wont do the story much justice, but I hope you get at least a glimpse of these two wonderful people:
Oh wow, these are so very special!!
Ongelooflik mooi!!!
Absoluut fantasties! Ek love hulle liefde vir mekaar en glo en vertrou die Hemelse Vader sal hulle styf vashou deur alles! Stunning foto’s!
storie van geloof, hoop en bo alles liefde. dankie.
Sjoe dis mooi – eks sommer trane EN hoendervleis! Hopelik na ons e-session en trou fotos kan jy eendag ons 51ste huweliks herdenking ook afneem!
Hierdie is beautiful! Ek moes deur my trane knip om die pragtige fotos te sien!
WOW! You have truly captured the deep essence of love and commitment that this special couple has! Fabulous!
This year I hosted my first bride of the year competition. One of my winners are Catherine, she won a couple shoot by just choosing a bride from the list of all my brides of last year. Look out for the competition next year January to see what is up for grabs!
So it has been a very busy year and poor Catherine had to wait until now for me to have a booking opening. But I think it was the perfect time to do the shoot. It is winter (and it still felt a like winter when we did the shoot 2 weeks ago) but the Johannesburg Botanical Gardens looked like Fall. I’m so glad it is starting to warm up, I love spring!
Catherine and Toni have been dating for 9 months now and are soooo in love ;) Everytime she went into his arms they both smiled. With most people, meeting a stranger in a park and letting him/her take photos of you is a very weird experience, but it took Catherine & Toni a couple of minutes to get used to me. We had so much fun, Catherine was very cold, but held her pose and did everything I asked – Thank you :) and Toni… probably the first guy I’ve photographed who really looked like he was having fun, he reminded me of a little boy having fun without worrying what people around him thought, everyone should still have a little kid in themselves and come out to play now and then.
It was a wonderful experience photographing Catherine and Toni and I hope everyone enjoys the photos as much as I do! Give the gif a minute or two to load South Africa :)

Stunning. Love the pic where she is tossing back her hair / looking up.
Catherine is a very good friend of mine and seeing her so happy and in love in these photos makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. Lets hope that you get to do their wedding photos soon…hint hint ;-)
So I’ve had some shy couples in the past, but these too were by far the shyest I have come across, and I have to admit I really loved it! When someone is that shy, the moment they show someone emotion it 1st off means they trust you (thank you guys) and second of all shows the truest emotion. I met Fielies and Melissa a couple of days before they booked me for their wedding, and we got to do this amazing engagement session on Fielies’ family farm in Hectorspruit. It was a warm day on the farm, and we took some lovely photos at a farm house and an old building, but when we got to the cows the light was perfect sun set, and the dust was kicked up by the cattle – 2 of them decided to fight, I always get lucky enough to see animals in a fight (not that I like it, but hey, it is nature) – I almost didnt want to leave the spot because it was perfect! Thank you to my lovely couple who shared their afternoon with me.
Fielies and Melissa are getting married in a month on their farm in Kaapmuiden, in the Lowveld. Can’t wait to be part of their day.
