Danja & Robert :: Grand Dedale

16th April, 2013

Danja & Robert tied  the knot at the magnificent Grand Dedale just outside of Wellington on a warm Summer’s day. Jaco from Just Jack Weddings did what he does best – perfected every last detail with the biggest smile ever. No nervous brides (or grooms for that matter) when he’s around. Loved working with this brilliant team.

Danja & Robert are the cutest couple and I couldn’t help taking loads of photographs – they made it just too easy.

Special thanks to bridesmaid and photographer Veronique holding the reflector for a few photographs as my assistant unfortunately suffered from food poisoning. :(

Danja & Robert, wishing you years of endless happiness and giggles.

Love, Chaz

Carla & Tonie :: De Oudekraal, Caledon

28th March, 2013

I loved everything about Carla & Tonie’s wedding, Oh yes we did. Besides the fact that they are incredibly warm, utterly in love and drop dead gorgeous, it took place in the middle of nowhere on a farm. And you all know what a sucker I am for farm weddings. Wedding on a farm? Oh yes, sign me up already. This one was at De Oudekraal, a new wedding venue 20km out of Caledon. The best.

Throw in hundreds on Eucalyptus trees, Canola “stoppels”, a beautiful sky, a reception set inbetween trees, the band, Bottomless Coffee (who I love!), the most awesome Bridal party and we have a winner!

It was windy though and Carla was in a state of mild panic the previous day over the weather. But we are always up for a challenge. We worked the wind and the beautiful overcast sky to our advantage. No matter how much we tried, we just couldn’t keep Tonie’s tie to stay straight or get Carla’s hair to tame. But I loved it, I think that suited their playful nature so well and the carefree surrounding landscape we had the honor in photographing.

We also took loads of Bridal party photographs, as I knew how much they meant to the couple. We had loads of extra time set aside.These guys were crazy, we had so much fun and they loved the camera, even the boys ;)

Carla & Tonie, you know how thankful I am. Thank you again so much for all your plattelandse hospitality, warmth and treating us as your guests – I will always remember your day and how much fun we had.

Charlotte & Jurgen :: Kleinevalleij

27th March, 2013

Charlotte and Jurgen was an absolute joy to photograph and to get to know. During our Engagement session we had so much fun running around the Cape Town streets. See there E-session here.

I love the way I could tell straight away that their love is based on a deep friendship and faith. I loved so much about this wedding, the way that Jurgen couldn’t take his eyes off Charlotte the entire day, the most photogenic Tanglewood where Charlotte got ready, the beauty of Kleinevalleij, the tears, the joy and even the rain just before Charlotte walk down the aisle. Perfect.

Charlotte and Jurgen, I loved every minute of documenting your day. You guys are amazing and I wish you blessings beyond measure.
