AN INTIMATE CAPE TOWN WEDDING

I met Sanchia three years ago, working as a hairdresser in Camden. She was the first hairdresser to tell me that my thick and unruly hair was actually beautiful and instantly, we were friends. Together, Sanchia & Richard are a truly fantastic couple; large-hearted, vivacious and very, very stylish, so I was privileged to photograph their intimate garden ceremony in Cape Town, South Africa whilst there on holiday last month.

This is Oupa-he’s 93 years old, survived world war II and
the entire family adores him.

    It is always special photographing a wedding day, but sometimes a little bit even more special when the bride is a wedding blogger who also happens to be exceptionally lovely and is marrying her husband under a bright blue sky.

    Kate & Tom were the first clients I met after a long flight home from Australia in January. We had a drink at The Alice House and talked for hours and I knew before I’d left, that we had become friends. Their wedding was just beautiful. Kate shone, Tom grinned, they both said I do and I cried just a little bit, from the sheer love of it all.

  6. Thanks everyone-it was such a beautiful afternoon. I have always been a bit too soft on the inside, but I actually welled-up quite a bit editing this one. Such beautiful families take quite beautiful photos if I say so myself.

  7. Those shots of Oupa are gorgeous – I really want to meet him! This wedding has a lovely feel and you captured it beautifully. If I ever have an anniversary bbq, not only will you be there drinking champers, but I'll be sneakily getting you to photograph EVERYTHING!!

  8. What a great evening it was and looking at these beautiful images has brought back some great memories, especially the dancing! Has anyone heard of Steve Hofmeyr?

  9. What a cute couple! I am sure they are thrilled with these photos!
