Back in January when I heard there was going to be a workshop given by Andrea Carlyle and Dror Eyal, my first words were “Heck yes!” These two are giants in the wedding photography industry,  and a chance to learn from them wasn’t something I was about to pass up! The workshop was held at the fabulous Forum Homini in the Cradle of Humankind (PS – will somebody please go and get married there, and hire me to be your photographer? Thanks.  :-) )  We shot around the hotel for a bit, and then took our cars out into the nature reserve, where we fought off mosquitoes bravely. Thanks to our models, Gen and Greg, for being superstars and standing anywhere we wanted them! And thanks to Dror and Andrea for sharing your knowledge and secrets with us! I could have stayed another whole day, asking questions and learning.

Here are some of my photos from the sunset shoot:

And a more arty one…I thought this photo was rather abstract and therefore deserved a bit of different treatment:

I know you’ve all been waiting with bated breath to see more of the fantastically gorgeous engagement session we shot at Christine Meintjes’ workshop. And if you haven’t, pretend you were. This shoot was so adorable I could eat it up with a big bowl of custard. And I suppose Nicola and Wynand were a bit of help too :-)

See Part I here.

Wynand did the cutest jump in the history of Stellenbosch:

We made him do it a bunch of times, so I got one of Nicola watching him:

And another of him jumping alone. This was the only image I could bring myself to make monochrome, by the way, because the colours in this location are too gosh darn pretty not to use.

Oh, look, he’s at it again:

The most adorable shoot ever. Thank you Christine for organising it!

The weekend in Cape Town was fabulous. I learned so much about not only photography, but about running a wedding photography business as well. I have to give a huge thank you to to Christine Meintjes for organising, teaching, sharing and just generally being awesome, and to the other seven photographers I met for sharing your knowledge and experiences as well.

Early on the Saturday morning we drove out to Stellenbosch to photograph Nicola and Wynand’s sweet, country-chic engagement shoot. The weather was perfect, as was the location!
