Weddings for 2010
Marvin & Nicole – La Petite Dauphine, Franschhoek
In the years of her singleness, Nicole had a problem. She needed a date for a wedding and was struggling through a list of options. What is worse then getting invited to a wedding while being single? Finally she decided on The New Guy. The New Guy became Marvin. Marvin became Marvelous Marvin and the [...]
Reino & Annatjie – Laerskool Montagu, Montagu
The world is a small place. Who would think that a girl from Montagu would meet her future husband in London and that this man would be from Koekenaap?
This is what happened to wonderful Annatjie and Reino. They met in London, started dating in London and then planned their wedding from London… within 3 months. [...]
Nicolaas & Bea – Strandkombuis, Yzerfontein
Nicolaas and Bea
It was the most gorgeous day, with a slight ocean breeze! Strandkombuis is bEaUtiFul! Everyone had to kick off their shoes, to walk over the beach to the ceremony. Which also added to the already relaxed and festive atmosphere. Nicolaas and Bea are such a special couple. They’ve been going out for I [...]
Nico & Lizelle – Stellenrust, Stellenbosch
What a way to end the year! Soveel glimlagte en goeie memories – dit bly darem lekker om twee great mense by mekaar te sien uitkom. Vreeslik baie dankie vir ‘n onvergeetlike dag, mag julle net die mooiste van herinneringe vorentoe beleef!

Willie & Joamie – Molenvliet, Stellenbosch
Willie and Joamie
It was real windy, but fortunately this stunning venue is nestled in the valley of Helshoogte, which blocked it just enough. The day was gorgeous! And Joamie!! Decor, attention to detail and a lot of creativity… Guests were jolly, and Willie and Joamie cute
Baie dankie julle, en geniet dit! ..
Nick & Diné – Diemerskraal, Wellington
Nick and Diné wanted to host a memorable celebration – a goal they certainly achieved. Loads of laughter, loads of fun and a setting which just plainly allowed for this. It was a brilliant day and a well deserved unforgettable evening for not just Mr and Mrs Bennet, but to all those who [...]
Marcel & Gabby – Barons Estate, Cape Town
I never really met Marcel or Gabby before their wedding day. They are both from Kimberly and contacted me a while back to photograph their wedding. I really enjoyed their day and it was great to be amongst such special family and friends of theirs. Enjoy your holiday and hope to visit you in Kimberly [...]
Wiehan & Mari – Opstal, Rawsonville
Toe ek begin om deur Wiehan en Mari se troufoto’s te werk kon ek nie ophou giggel nie – want hulle lag heeltyd! Dis die perfekte opsomming van hul dag. ‘n Lag-feesviering van hierdie twee se liefde.
Hulle was so opgewonde om te trou en almal was so opgewonde om daar te wees. Oral is trane [...]
Coenie & Elzanne – Hermanus River Farm, Kleinmond
Where do I start? I met Coenie and Elzanne about 8 months ago when they asked me to do an Engagement shoot (view photo’s here). They then asked me to photograph their wedding. They put together an amazing wedding at the Hermanus River Farm about 6km past Kleinmond. It is a farm with the most [...]

Hanneke – Model/Fashion Portfolio
There are few things as inspiring as someone who has decided to follow their dreams. Hanneke is one of those people. After dreaming about it for a while and having numerous people asking her if she was in fact a model, she decided to set up a fashion/model portfolio to take the big step into [...]
Garth & Ashley – Rhebokskloof, Paarl
The Cape Wind showed no mercy on this special day for Garth & Ashley. This had no effect on this great couple, Garth from South Africa and Ashley for the United States. They had an absolute blast from the minute I arrived to photograph Ashley at the Andrew Murray Centre in Wellington. Garth and Ashley [...]
Willie & Annerine – Opstal, Rawsonville
Willie and Annerine
Sjoe, I was so excited and glad that these two’s day arrived! They are a spectacular couple! And one of the best things about taking wedding photos, is the beautiful destinations I get to experience… Rawsonville was at its best! and this is exactly where Annerine grew up – just next to the [...]
Gustav & Family – Stellenbosch
Young Gustav was to be Christened and Corrie asked if I could come in and shoot some family shots. Wow!!! What fun, little Gustav was so camera friendly that we didn’t stop for 90 minutes. Isabelle was also great (Gustav’s sister) and she definately enjoyed the camera too. Thanks to the de Vries family, it [...]
Patrick & Retha – On The Rocks, Blaauwberg Strand
Oggend troues is anders. Dis vars, dis “ongejaagd” en dit voel soms meer spesiaal. Pat en Retha was geen uitsondering nie. On the Rocks bied ‘n asemrowende uitsig op Tafelberg – iets wat die gaste heeldag lank kon waardeer.
Boonop was daar na die hele dag se pret, plesier en trane nog meer as genoeg tyd [...]
David & Nelle – Rickety Bridge
I was contacted by Nelle’s mom in April 2010 whilst sitting at CT Intl Airport boarding my flight to Europe for a 3 week holiday. Sandra immediately booked me for her daughters wedding and so the process began. I only met Nelle about 6 weeks before her wedding and found out she was a pure [...]
JG & Charindie – Kleinevalleij, Wellington
All people shine on their wedding day, but few people are able to lit up everyone around them in the way that JG and Charindie did on theirs.
JG en Charindie het elke goeie ding verdien wat hulle kant toe gekom het – daar is ‘n rede hoekom hulle so ‘n ongelooflike troue gehad het – [...]
Christian & Katharina – Hawksmoor House, Stellenbosch
I did Christian and Katharina’s engagement shoot a few weeks ago. And as I got to know them, their sincere love for one-another, their aimed energy to have fun, and off course seeing what beautiful photos they make, I was SO looking forward to their wedding day! It was gorgeous! They were gorgeously in love [...]
Dolf & Corrien – Waboomsaal, Worcester
As Dolf vir Corrien kyk is dit asof niks anders in die wêreld vir hom saak maak nie. Asof hy net vir haar sien en sy die grootste geskenk is waarvoor hy nog altyd gewag het. Dis pragtig om te aanskou. Corrien en Dolf het mekaar in Londen ontmoet en moes maar vir ‘n rukkie [...]
Japie & Jami-lee – Avalon, Stellenbosch
I met Japie and Jami about 6 months ago when we met for a coffee to discuss the different wedding packages. I never thought that I would have so much fun at their wedding. All the people, all the laughter, especially Japie’s speech, I could not take photo’s I was laughing so hard. It was [...]
Willie & Nadene – Skilpadsvlei, Stellenbosch
Dit was so lekker om hierdie twee vriendelike, verliefde mense se dag te kon deel met hulle. Daarme saam het Stellenbosch se weer die perfekte omstandighede gelewer vir foto’s – baie wolke, en ‘n ligte windjie! Lekker!!!
Geniet hierdie, en julel 2 se pragtige tyd vorentoe!

Stephen & Janel – Buitenverwachting, Constantia
Wow, what a stormy day! It was so windy, with huge raindrops, that we didn’t even know how we were going to get Janel into the car, leaving for the ceremony. BUT nothing could get in the way of this couple’s enthusiasm, jokes, laughter and aim to have fun! (You guys were great!) And it [...]
Chris & Helen, Alle Bleue – Pniel
Helen and Chris was set out to have a relaxed day, as newly weds with their friends and family, and lots of fun … There was an order for things to happen, but all in all, they went with whatever they felt like doing.. which was awesome! They first actual dance was even in between [...]
