Cape Town Weddings & Wacky Weather

As a photographer, the best thing about living on Blouberg beachfront during our summer wedding season, is that from the moment you awake, all that is needed to get a quick synopsis of what sort of weather/wedding awaits in the wings, is to take a quick look outside. Between Table Mountain, the ocean, cloud cover, direction in which ships are pointing and sporting activities taking place around you, you are provided not only with some mind-blowing beauty, but a minefield of information.

As you look at the pics I hope you too will be able to feel the pleasure and pain of the heat, wind and all the beauty that abounds. ENJOY!

50s Themed Wedding

I met Abbi and Paul at a pub in Covent Garden the day after doing a shoot in London. Seconds after meeting them, I knew their wedding was going to be a stunner as they had the perfect blend of romantic energy and creative ideas.

Not to disappoint, I was flown up to Jozies where their choice of venue was the historic and remarkable Jessep Girls High School, a perfect choice for their '50's themed wedding.  Bridemaids in Polka dots, wedding cake going dotty, old LP records being converted into placemats and you get the idea----Thanks to both Abbi and Paul for your  novel wedding day and for making me feel like the authentic 'swinging sixties' photographer.
