Bhekifa + Busiswe

When we first had our interview with Bhekifa + Busiswe we fell in love with them. Bhekifa is Mashona and comes from Zimbabwe and Busiswe is Xhosa, and comes from the Eastern Cape and they are both Doctors.
This for us was very special, our first African Wedding, AND we had no idea what to expect!





At 7.00am we were at Busi's house to capture her getting ready. You would not believe the bustle that was already going on. The excitement as friends and family got together to support Busi. The colour of the traditional outfits, the food that was being prepared for breakfast - We loved it!




The wedding and reception was held at Riverside. We arrived ahead of Busi and once again were awed at what we witnessed.

























It is traditional at African weddings for the Bridal Party to come dancing into the reception. Busi + Bheki and their bridesmaids and groomsmen practised for weeks. We loved this, so different from all the other receptions that we have been a part of. Greg and I were totally enthralled.



Thank you so for entrusting us to capture your awesome wedding on DVD and Stills. May your marriage bear great fruit.

Donovan + Tamlyn

Don + Tam came for an interview with us to do their Wedding Photographs and DVD. Their chosen Package came with a Pre Wedding shoot. It was from that shoot that they crept into our hearts. A beautiful down-to-earth and real couple. They not only showed their love for each other, but we could see that they were best friends and loved having fun.

As their wedding day dawned so did the rain clouds, but being the precious couple that they are, Don + Tam were not daunted.




















And then.... the rain came!
We all ran for the cover of our cars and drove to the beautiful venue, "La Colline".
As grace would have it...the rain stopped for half an hour. I have never done a wedding couple shoot in such short notice, but the results were unique if I must say so myself :D










Thank you for choosing us to photograph + capture your day on DVD. May love, light, peace and joy follow you all the days of your life.
