We’ve been to some really cool weddings in the 2006/2007 season. Made some friends, had a great time and shot some photos we are really proud of. In no particular order, my favourite weddings of the season.

Michael and Angela at Oakfield

Just an incredible wedding, filled with tradition and friends. Angela transformed Oakfield from a farm to a setting out of the Great Gatsby.

Maryanne and Scott at Koyama

Cool venue, laid back couple, indie sounds and glorious food from By Word Of Mouth.

Alesa and Dimitri at Saheti

Greek weddings are just fun, full stop. Add some wild Americans into the mix and well, you should have been there.

Mari and Elmer at Anderland

Two of the nicest people we’ve had the pleasure to meet.

JP and Christine at The Grace

Class and elegance would be the two words I’d use here. The love between these two was palpable.

Louise and Dan at The Westcliff

Wild. I mean really wild, like only a jewish wedding can get.

We photographed our first intimate wedding at The Grace in Rosebank this weekend. An intimate wedding is a package for those couples that are looking for a photojournalistic approach to their small wedding.

It was a beautiful sunset wedding for a really amazing couple. Christine and JP’s wedding was emotional and touching and perfectly located on the terrace at The Grace with an incredible view of the sun setting over Johannesburg. I also loved the fact that they had placed photos of loved ones who couldn’t make it to the wedding on the mantelpiece in the centre of the room. You guys belong together and it shows.

Another first for us was the fact that Christine and JP decided to see each other before the ceremony. It was a beautiful and touching moment seeing them see each other for the first time surrounded by their close family, tears on their faces, hugging each other, whispering in each other’s ear. A few moments alone before the wedding, getting ready to face the future together.

I’ve heard people refer to this as cali-style, and I must say that it isn’t very popular in South Africa, but I think it really works. You get a couple of moments together before the wedding, alone, with close family, without the weight of being in a chapel in front of a priest. Just a couple of moments together, to hug, to whisper, to clutch each other before the ceremony.

There are actually too many amazing photos.

[Vendor Prop] – This one has to go out to The Grace. Excellent service, amazing venue and wow, what a view off that terrace.
