Wezo & Tammy's love story is live!

I am a work colleague of Wezo, and it was an absolute pleasure to be entrusted to capture his big day. He is such a warmhearted person, with a driven personality.

When I met Tammy, she completely overwhelmed me with her open heart and authentic personality, and love just oozes out of her heart! Tammy’s dress was made by Diamond Love, in Killarney Mall, and she definitely made a statement with her beautiful red Nine West shoes. Her ring was also made by American Swiss.

I had so much fun capturing their day! We ended up being a bit late…or rather very late for the ceremony, but I am sure all South Africans have some sense of African time…things like these create memories that lasts a lifetime.  

It was a first time to do a wedding at Avianto Wedding Venue on my own, and Enes Kamanga did an awesome job! I have assisted weddings here before, and every time I am back here I get a sense of overwhelming beauty and majesty!  

Nico & Laura {family shoot at L'Agulhas}

I was on holiday but I decided to do a few family shoots at the beach seeing that we lack a beach in Johannesburg! So Nico contacted me and wanted to do a shoot as a Christmas gift to his wife, Laura. 

I just LOVE this place!

We decided to go to the Lighthouse at the tip of Africa, the Lighthouse at Cape Agulhas, and this is not far away from where the Indian and Atlantic Ocean meet. The Van der Westhuizens always come to Struisbaai for December holidays, and it is a place that is known and dear to them. So I was privileged to do this shoot, and Grandma will just love the family picture she wanted to be framed in her house!

Ivan & Maryke's love story begins here!

I am looking forward to the wedding of this amazingly beautiful couple!

Maryke and Ivan blossomed in front of the camera and I thoroughly enjoyed capturing their funky engagement shoot. Maryke's mom works at Roedean School South Africa and she organised that we can have the shoot at the school, which is such a beautiful venue. The gorgeous historic buildings, the lawns, the view of the Johannesburg General Hospital chimney in the background, and the majestic gardens makes this a stunning venue. The school was opened in 1903 and there is a lot of heritage here, and I believe that it meant a lot to Maryke to do this shoot at the school.

I definitely take my hat off for Maryke, because she had food poisoning or something on the day. Every 20min she had to go to the bathroom, and she still smiled and looked so beautifully. And Ivan looked great as well. It's always a challenge to capture photos of a photographer, which meant that I had to up my game. The amazing reality of this is it shows in the pictures! I believe this shoot came out amazing and that they will have a good taste of the pictures to come at their wedding day!

God is Groot | God is Great | GiG 2015

God Is Great | God is Groot | GiG 2016 23 April 2016

The church I go to, Reformed Church Linden (GKL), hosted a Praise & Worship GIG Concert at the Louw Geldenhuys Primary School. The concert was held on the 23rd of August. The GKL Praise and Worship Band led a community of Christians across all different church denominations in song and worship. There was also performances of well-known artists such as Joe Niemand, Retief Burger, Elvis Blue, Chris Chameleon, Helene Bester, Cobus Bester and Deon Meiring (Glaskas) who will all unite in praising the Lord.

What an event it was! I believe the pictures reflect the passion and energy of the day and the performances, but I also believe that "performance" is not the correct term. The day was full of praise for the Lord and I believe the pictures reflect the way the Spirit has moved in the heart of Johannesburg!

All the Glory goes to God!
