Welcome
Welcome to my website!
Before I even did my first wedding I knew that telling stories with photos was in my blood.
I soon realised that the world was built around stories. Stories are our legacies. Stories make life richer. It was my job to help people tell their own stories. Photography was my tool.
After 14 years as a professional photographer in Cape Town, I am still amazed at your stories. Hopefully, it will stay this way.
Although based in Durbanville, Cape Town I enjoy working on projects wherever they may be.
To view my story
Cape Town Wedding Photography
I have been a wedding photographer based in Cape Town since 2004. What started out as a part-time hobby eventually became my full-time career.
There is almost no wedding venue where I have not shot before. And the number of wedding and bridesmaid dresses I have seen are endless.
Having worked with all the major wedding planners, tasted way too much wedding cake, fluffed countless wedding dresses and I am even a veil input expert!
Based in Durbanville. Most of my weddings are in Cape Town, Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, Paarl, Wellington, Durbanville, Somerset West, Hermanus, Langebaan, Worcester, Robertson, Houtbaai, Kommetjie, Tulbagh, Riebeek Kasteel, Malmesbury, Ceres, Blouberg, Yzerfontein, Stanford, Greyton, Montagu, Knysna, Mosselbaai, Stilbaai and George.
Not only do we do wedding photography in the Winelands and entire Western Cape, but every now and then we get the opportunity to do weddings in Port Elzabeth, KZN, Pretora, Johannesburg, Krugersdorp and Muldersdrift. No wedding in South Africa is out of reach.
Extra services provided includes: Engagement shoots, Storybooks, elopement weddings and a recently opened a Wedding video division.
