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!

Sarah & Adrian’s Wedding

February 8, 2010

Sarah and Adrian got married at the Vaal last Saturday, and I was invited to second shoot by Hannalee Photography. If you live in Gauteng you might remember that that was the weekend of violent storms and flooding (I even got trapped by a flooded intersection on Republic Road near Cresta on the Friday night!), and the Vaal was, well, a lot wider than it should have been. Sarah and Adrian had to rethink their plans of getting married on the banks under the trees, or we would all have needed wetsuits and snorkels! But Sarah and Adrian didn’t let that worry them; the ceremony was moved upshore and they just got on with the most important thing – being happy and in love and getting married! Here are some of my photos from their wedding.

Yes, she had the most gorgeous satin blue heels. I swooned. Then I took a thousand photos.

By the way, I don’t MAKE brides lie down on the grass. But I do ask very nicely. :-) I figured Sarah might be up for it!

Rainbow

November 13, 2009

The view from my bedroom window last night. If you were in Johannesburg last night, you probably saw the amazing golden and pink sunset (I wasn’t able to get a photo of it, because we only saw it after we’d left the house and I didn’t take my camera. Boo). But my south-facing view, over town, had THIS:

Oh, what’s that in the right hand corner?

THIS:

Rainbow over Johannesburg

I’ve never seen such a vertical rainbow before! I wish I could figure out where the other end was. Maybe it was in the land that I heard of once in a lullaby. :-)
