Shoana and Chris were married last weekend on their family’s plot in Northvale, near Krugersdorp. A more relaxed bride I’ve never seen (“You can’t find my shoes? Ok, I’ll just walk barefoot then!”), and a more fun family, helping out with every little detail, would be hard to find! When I arrived with my 2nd shooter Mandy, the guys were cutting grass and cosmos for the table centrepieces, the flowergirls were decorating the cupcakes, and the ring-bearers were putting out homemade fortune cookies on the tables. It was wonderful. The ceremony took place in an area cleared of long grass, and we took Shoana and Chris’ portraits right there in the veld. The skies remained sunny for the ceremony, and then the gigantic stormclouds blew up right in time to get some amazing sky shots. Perfection!
