Barbara and Jason were married last Saturday at the always phenomenal Shepstone Gardens, and it was such a gorgeous and happy event. I think you know you’re really involved emotionally in a wedding when you’re taking pictures of the mothers of the bride and groom crying during the speeches, and they start pointing and laughing because you’re crying too (yes, this happened). Barbara’s father reminded me so much of my own, the bridesmaids were like rays of sunshine in their flowing yellow dresses, and Barbara looked stunning in her fairytale ballerina-inspired dress, complete with ballet slippers (which unfortunately didn’t last long; double-sided tape is not all it’s cracked up to be).

Here are some of my favourites from their day. Thanks to the wonderful Melanie Wessels for assisting me again. You can see her photos of the day here.

Oh and Barbara and Jason’s Engagement at the zoo is here, go check that out too.

I loved this next idea! Barbara and Jason used one of my photos from their engagement session and had a frame custom-made, on which the guests could inscribe their messages and well-wishes.

One of the best “I caught the bouquet!” faces EVER!

Barbara and Jason, thank you for having me as part of your wonderful day. And thanks to Marielle and the staff at Shepstone Gardens for being amazing as always!

Aimee and Tyler live in the UK, so I didn’t get to meet them until the day of their wedding! Aimee’s mother Glenys and sister Amande met with me and booked me, and despite the whole wedding being organised partly here and partly overseas, it went off beautifully. My favourite moment was Aimee and Tyler walking into the reception to the theme tune of Star Wars – geekdom after my own heart.

Here are some of my favourite shots from their wedding on Saturday. The Hertford has some gorgeous stone walls and a forest that’s taken right out of a fairytale.

Kirsty and Ant were married two weeks ago on a beautiful warm Saturday. Their service was held at the Rosebank Catholic church (gorgeous!), and the reception at the Johannesburg Country Club in Auckland Park. I shot their engagement photos there a few months ago, and it was interesting to see how different it looked in winter! I’m actually really glad we did that, because we got to shoot in a few great spots that we didn’t have time for on the wedding day.

Kirsty and Ant, thank you so much for such a beautiful wedding! I hope you’re enjoying The Maldives!
