Frequently Asked Questions — Riekert Cloete Photography
Answers to the questions couples, companies and event organisers ask most often. Based in Durbanville, Cape Town — photographing weddings, commercial and lifestyle since 2004.
What does it cost to have a photographer at a CTICC exhibition or corporate event?
Exhibition and corporate-event coverage starts at R7,000 for a half-day (4 hours) and R9,000 for a full session (6 hours). A social-media reel add-on is R3,000 and travel is a flat R350. Every usable image is delivered — there is no cap on the number of photos — with a 48-hour turnaround. CTICC events regularly covered include Mining Indaba, Big 5 Construct and Africa Automation Fair.
How quickly do you deliver photos after a shoot?
Commercial and event galleries are delivered within 48 hours; weddings within about 10 days. Every usable photo is included — there is no image-count cutoff.
Which areas of Cape Town and the Western Cape do you cover?
Based in Durbanville, I cover the full Cape Town metro and Winelands — Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, Constantia, Paarl, Durbanville, Hermanus, Langebaan and the CTICC — and travel further afield across South Africa for destination work.
How many weddings have you photographed?
More than 500 weddings since 2004, with 130+ five-star Google reviews. Around 60% of couples travel from abroad to marry in South Africa, and I have photographed at roughly 90% of Western Cape wedding venues.
What types of photography do you offer?
Three areas: weddings; commercial (corporate headshots, events, CTICC exhibitions, product and corporate work); and lifestyle (family portraits and matric farewell shoots).
