Thandi and Tom’s album

All this time off from the internet and email has had me putting together a serious amount of album pages. Putting together albums is the flipside of photographing weddings. Most people can pull together one or two great photos from a wedding, add a lot of photoshop and you can easily get a couple of killer pics from a wedding to post on a blog. The trick comes from photographing a wedding for an album; you need to shoot sequences, images that fit together, narrate a story, give an idea of what the wedding was about. It’s why I always tell my clients at their consultations that the photography has to be a collaboration between the photographer and the couple.

Anyway, just wanted to show off some pages from Thandi and Tom’s wedding. It has one of my favorite double pages ever. It’s a 60 page Asuka btw.

 

Sunsets and kisses under the veil got to love that.

In case you don’t guess. This is my fav spread; beautiful colors and look at that smile. Sunsets and genuine smiles under a veil. Real moments.

btw I’ve been listening to a lot of Vampire Weekend, really cool rock band with some reggae touches. Reminds me a lot of The Clash if they had grown up in Joburg and immigrated to London. Check out Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa, or The Kids Don’t Stand A Chance.
