Boeta & Malenke {Wedding} Part 1

What a wonderful wedding to celebrate! I am happy to report that Boeta is doing great, he had the bullet removed a couple of months ago and is going strong. For those of you not in the know, here is Boeta & Malenke’s post on what happened the day of their couple shoot.

Boeta and Malenke got married on the 24th of July at Kwa Madwala Game Reserve, near Hectorspruit in the Lowveld. Kwa Madwala means Place of the Rock, and you’ll soon see why. This magical place has rock everywhere and its so beautiful. The Reserve have a lot of game including lion, rhino, elephant, and occasionally leopard that guest can see on their game drive. The reception was set in a dried up river bank in the middle of the bushveld, and the food made by Stoep Cafe in Komati was delicious! Oooh, now I cant wait for Ruan and Mary-Ann’s wedding next weekend…nom,nom,nom :D Part 2 coming in a couple of hours.

Fielies & Melissa {I’m yours}

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.

Hylgard & Charlien {family lifestyle}

I’m posting about my friends Hylgard and Charlien Lourens, parents of two. I’ve done a couple of shoots for them in the past, here is their last shoot. In February this year I met new born, Nicolien Lourens, she has grown a couple of inches now and got a bubbling personality with the new inches. I’m so glad we got to do this shoot, do yourself a favour and go see how much Nicolien has grown in just 5 months, the saying They grow up so quickly is there for a reason. In the first couple of years of your child’s life it is important to capture them as much as you can. We did a family shoot with grandmothers Linda and Roelien and grandpa Willem (if you ask me, they don’t look like grandparents at all) and last but not least, a little cutie called Simone ;) I had so much fun capturing these moments, I struggled a bit choosing the photos for the blog – there were a lot more I wanted to post, and I apologize for uploading so many at once, but I HAD TOO – I just love these shots. Enjoy!

Ruan & Mary-Ann {I’m yours}

As far back as I can remember Ruan has been a real ‘stout gat’.Ruan is also from my home town, Komatipoort. Mary-Ann- and Ruan’s parents were good friends when the two of them were little. During the holidays Mary-Ann and her family would go and visit Ruan’s family on the farm. But they both grew up, Mary-Ann a city girl and Ruan went off to boarding school. Their paths crossed again (years later) when Mary-Ann visited her father in Komati. Her sister, Malenke, who is getting married to Boeta next week, arranged a braai with friends so that Mary-Ann could meet some of the Komati people. I’m sure Mary-Ann never expected to see Ruan there, but there he was, this grown up boy she used to know as a little stout gat. But what she didn’t know is that Ruan has always had a crush on her and “single girl” is a rare word in Komati, so Ruan had to watch out for all the other guys ready to fall for Mary-Ann! It was love at first sight, ok maybe not first sight, but you get what I’m saying. Its like those Hollywood movies. And the rest as they say is history.

Lyle & Lindi’s Booth!

For their booth Lindi wanted fairy lights, you will see from their wedding post that the venue had lights everywhere, it matched the theme so well. First I’m going to add my favourite photo of the booth…This was a very spontanious shot, Thinus and X are only friends, so I tried my matchmaking skills and asked them to kiss for me :) When they kissed I got butterflies in my tummy, such an awesome moment.
