I received an urgent skype message the other night from one of my friends asking me if I was okay, because she saw that I haven't blogged in a while! Thank you so much for the concern...and hint that I'm behind on my posts ;) For those of you not in the loop, I'm rebranding and getting an awesome new blog-site, really soon! Some of my new posts are on the new site already, we're just waiting for some transfers and then, when it has launched, I will blog, facebook & twitter everybody with the new url. I'm burning with excitement! In the meantime, you can go and like my new facebook page while your waiting.

Chris & Theresa {I’m yours}

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:

Fielies & Melissa {Wedding} Part 2

rensche — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 11:21:55 +0000

Their day just kept on getting better. We went over to Fielies farm to do the Bride&Groom photos and came accross this beautiful dam wall (okay, I was probably the only one that thought it was stunning, but, non the less, a photographer knows best, right?) And as if it isn't enough, I thought that everything there was beautiful, the pack house, the road and the stunning landscapes that surrounded the farm.

p style="text-align: justify;">I dont know if I've said this before, but Fielies & Melissa were my shyest couple ever, but its really cute and I got so many great shots - sometimes shyness just works out great. I did their engagement shoot in August this year on their cattle farm in Hectorspruit, if you haven't seen it yet, go check it out -> here!

They tied the knot at Fielies' parents house in Kaapmuiden - I would love to do my wedding at a house too. If you've never experienced a home wedding before, you have my sympathy! It is probably the most relaxing wedding I've been to...EVER! And not only that, the scenery was amazing, we could see all the farms in the Kaapmuiden area and beyond, over looking the Baberton mountains, there was a light breeze, so it wasn't too hot and of course the food was amazing, done by my favourite Lowveld catering company, Stoep Cafe!

Schalk & Rynali {Wedding} Part 2

rensche — Tue, 12 Oct 2010 10:48:49 +0000

Part 2 of Schalk & Rynali's Wedding. I have to thank Marlize, Rynali's maid of honour, she helped me out taking some photos here and there. She also studied graphic design & photography :D It's always nice to have someone help out, Marlize you are awesome!

Can I just say that my bride & groom looked so stunning! It was so special doing the bride&groom session - when Schalk & Rynali looked at each other it was really hard to get them to look away. I could see how happy Schalk & Rynali was and how they just wanted to stare at each other the whole time. Okay, and Schalk wanted to stare at the beautiful BUICK too, who wouldn't, what a stunning car, it fits so well with the couple. I stand to be corrected, but I think the Buick is a 1950's Super Riviera with a eight cylinder engine (who knows...I'm a girl, so I really don't have any knowledge...I just googled it ;) all I know is that it's really pretty, like my bride & groom. Enjoy!

Take spring when it comes, and rejoice. Take happiness when it comes, and rejoice. Take love when it comes, and rejoice. -- Carl Ewald

Do you remember Schalk & Rynali? I shot their e-session a couple of months ago, to view it, go HERE!

The day started out beautifully! It was blue skies and clouds (just the way I like it). Spring had just started and everything was new! On this day Schalk & Rynali stood before God and made the ultimate promise, to love one another, forever. Both of them were so excited for this day to start (Once dressed, Rynali stood at the window, looking out and asking when everyone was going to move in to the church - she didn't want to wait a minute longer), Schalk was already in the church waiting. It made me so excited for them, they started their life together on 11 September 2010.

Rudy & Luzanne {Wedding} Part 2

rensche — Mon, 04 Oct 2010 06:24:27 +0000

Part 2 of this lovely wedding. It was such a beautiful day. I also got a chance to shoot at Irene Dairy Farm again, I seriously love that place. If you know of places in PTA or Joburg, similar to Irene Dairy Farm please let me know :) would love some new shooting grounds. So excited to post these photos, enjoy!

Rudy & Luzanne {Wedding} Part 1

rensche — Fri, 01 Oct 2010 07:17:30 +0000

I met Rudy & Luzanne in the beginning of the year and thought; WOW, what a lovely couple. It would be a real treat to photograph these two...well, turns out I was fortunate enough to shoot their wedding. The wedding was in a class of its own, Luzanne's so organized, when I met up with them before the wedding, she had this huge wedding file (like the one you always see in the Movies...chick flicks) she had everything that you can possibly imagined, I was in awe. The wedding was held at the Irene Country Lodge with its beautiful chandeliered hallways and bathrooms...yes the bathrooms have chandeliers. And it was so so fitting, Luzanne & Rudy's theme was chandeliers inspired. It screamed style and sophistication.
