Tala Game Reserve Wedding {Wendy and Greg}
Part 1 Tala Game Reserve was our first wedding at a game park and one we were looking forward to with much anticipation. As photographers, game reserves have always had a certain appeal to them. Attending a wedding at one is a luxury we were very keen to indulge in. Greg and Wendy are a great couple and good friend's...
Grootbos Wedding Part 2 {Tara and Dino}
The mist rolled in and the sky began to look a little ominous during the wedding preparations. There where a few frantic exchanges of phone calls between rooms at Grootbos Private Nature Reserve and the final decision was made - to go ahead with the beach location for the ceremony. Dino has an affinity with the ocean and the wedding...
Grootbos Wedding Part 1 {Tara and Dino}
Dino & Tara share a relaxed, easygoing, down to earth vibe. This exudes from the couple and is infectious. The wedding was to be a small, intimate affair with only the closest family present. Minimum fuss and most importantly stress free. I think this was achieved perfectly and we are so honored to have been a part of this laid...
The best new feature in Photoshop CS5
To me this is by far the best new feature in Photoshop CS5. It seems like just the other day I downloaded the trial for CS4 and after a month in South Africa I get home to discover that there is yet another new release. Us photographers and retouchers are creatures of habit and approach change with an almighty spirit...

We have some brand spanking new, shiny, lovely albums to share with you. The first is an actual client album and before delivering it to Vic & Tom I found myself taking photos of it especially for the blog. This was just too good not to share. I love the beautiful coffee table matt laminate book cover. It has the...

You and Craig have really managed to capture the atmosphere of the day and we’re thrilled with the shots of the ceremony and the speeches in particular.

From Paris with Love
These are a set of pictures that I have never shown on the blog up until now. Back in July 2008 Craig and I joined a few highly talented wedding photographers on a trip to Paris. Those highly talented people include Bev & Barrie Downie, Gordon McGowan and Louise Sumner. I can't even begin to describe how much we learned...
Avante Garde Wedding Shoot in Venice
Continuing with our pre wedding shoot series I wanted to show some photographs that we did in Venice a couple of years back. Venice is the most unbelievable location for a wedding or a pre/post wedding shoot. Around every corner is another treasure. I have also included some of our street photography. We where fortunate enough to visit during the...
Winter Wedding in Windsor {Vic and Tom}
Winter weddings have a special feeling to them. The twinkling fairy lights, the atmosphere and if you are really lucky, the snow! The ceremony was held at Windsor Guildhall, followed by an intimate reception at The River House Restaurant on the river in Windsor. What was most important to the Vicky and Tom was that they had their closest friends...
Jewish Wedding Reception at St George’s Hall
Here is part two of the Jewish Simcha (Wedding) that we shot on the 30th of December up in Liverpool at St George's Hall. I just love the enormous festivities of a Jewish wedding with the traditional Israeli dancing which starts from the beginning of the night and continues intermittently between heartfelt speeches from friends and family. St George's Hall...
Jewish Wedding at Princes Road Synagogue
Ben and Victoria's wedding is the third time we have had the pleasure of shooting a Jewish wedding. I am just astounded at the traditions, ceremony and general upbeat nature of these weddings. There is so much joy and fun being spread around and so many a fantastic opportunities for getting amazing Photojournalistic images! I wanted to share the lovely...
DO YOU WANT TO BE PART OF BBC3’S NEW MARRIAGE DOCUMENTARY?
We have had a special request from a researcher at the BBC and would love to have one of our couples involved. I have spoken with the researcher over the phone and they are looking at interviewing couples, going along with them to pick out certain suppliers, selecting THE dress and so on. They may even film some of the...

I am just bursting to the brim with ideas and cannot wait to share my top picks of the speakers I have...
