    Jan & Vidette - 7 More days

    "Last minute bookings truly can be the best, especially when those bookings lead us to meeting great couples like Jan and Vidette. These two are really just truly nice people and we know that their wedding is going to be the perfect way to step back into wedding season, just seven more days and we are super excited!" - Markus Gericke Photographer: Natasha Louw Location: Eden Forest, Stellenbosch #bolandweddings #natashalouw #edenforest #engagementshoots #coupleshoots #savethe

    Marnus & Jeannine - A night on the town

    " Marnus and Jeannine are two of the sweetest people we could ever wish to work with. This was one of those shoots where we almost ran out of light because the actual work part took a backstep to chatting and just getting to know the clients. We cannot wait for their wedding, next year." - Markus Gericke Photographers: Natasha Louw and Markus Gericke Location: Cape Town Central #bolandweddings #natashalouw #markusgericke #weddingphotographers #coupleshoots #savethedates #enga

    Wouter and Zandre - Friends first, together forever

    "Our final wedding for June 15th. I had met Wouter and Zandre at their engagement shoot, a few months prior to this day, and I have to say, theirs is another wedding that I was genuinely sad that I could not have been there personally. When these two come together there is a softness about them that I rarely see. The looks they share, the way they hold hands, every time they kiss...there is an intimacy between them that is simply beautiful to witness. And beside all that, the

    Johan and Marelize - One morning can last forever

    "Meanwhile, while my team was sitting in Wimpy, waiting for our wedding to start, Ruan and Andi (joined by our good friend, Alida Smith) had been having an early morning at Manley Wine Lodge in Tulbagh. Now I have to confess, of the three weddings our teams were covering this day, Johan and Marelize was the only couple I had not met in person, and yet, somehow, I still feel like I know them. You really can tell a lot about people from just email correspondence, the questions

    Francois and Elzette - Die lekkerste ding om te doen (is om jou te soen)

    "So first some backstory, this wedding has been a long time coming, how long you may be wondering? Literally, years before they were even engaged; I'm going to confess something, there was a time that I truly did not believe that Elzette was a potential client, I thought she was a competitor, doing frequent follow ups to steal our package information (jammer Elzette), therefore, needless to say, I was rather shocked when I received an email stating that they were finally enga

    Dylan and Clarissa - One word will make us man and wife

    "I actually don't know where to start with this one, let's just say, I don't get to be a spy too often in my line of work, but that was kinda what this shoot required. We arrived about 30-minutes before Dylan and Clarissa and desperately scouted the location, trying to find somewhere we could hide but still have a clear view...my great idea to climb a tree didn't work (although that would have been AWESOME), so we eventually went a simpler route and took positions in my car's

    Heinrich and Jana - You are my forever

    "There is no greater beauty in life than the emotion of love, and when a couple discovers that kind of beauty, the type they can see will never fade, it truly is something to be celebrated. Heinrich and Jana are two of those lucky people, two people who met and discovered a love for each other that runs so deep, that they both realised their lives would become empty without it. As photographers, we are witnesses to many weddings, hundreds even, and on a sub-conscience level,

    "So another confession, and in this case, an unfortunate one: I have yet to personally meet Davin and Andrea, and that sucks! Because based on our many conversations via email and Facebook chat, as well as just the feedback from my team members, I know I've been missing out. These guys, by the purest definition, are just the nicest people I could possibly have asked to work with. I'll never forget, the day of their engagement shoot; I had been shooting a wedding (I was only b

    Lawrence and Jana - I get to love you

    "I make no secret of the fact that weekday weddings are my favourite, some think that's b ecause it gets me out of the office for an extra day and yes, that is a definite perk, but it's not the first reason that comes to mind. There is a certain theme to weekday weddings, they are usually smaller and more intimate, the couples always seem more relaxed, they are basically just fun to be a part of, case and point - Lawrence and Jana.

    "Now I've already expressed my fondness for Desmond and Leigh when I wrote the piece about their engagement shoot, but allow me to reiterate that again, these two are not only the perfect couple, but also the perfect clients. Theirs was a wedding we were super excited for, not for the venue, not for the decor...take it all away and it still would have been the perfect occasion, because that's the power of these two together. You meet them, you start chatting to them, and very

    Sandile and Miliswa - True love takes two

    "Two days after their coming together of two families, we were once again united with Sandile and Miliswa as they were to take their final vows, the moment everything had been building up to. Interesting bit of trivia: theirs was the biggest function ever hosted at Nantes Estate, with around 250 guests attending, from all over Africa. For many, the stress of such an occasion would have been too much, but not for these two; Sandile and Maliswa entered this day understanding th

    "Before I write this entry, I should mention that I have never, personally, met Shaun or Lee-ann, so my thoughts are from email correspondence and picking out my favourite photos, for this blog piece, only. There are a select few clients that I get a special appreciation for before their weddings, these are the ones that hire us for their weddings and simply trust us to know what we are doing, not only that, but listening to our advice, beforehand, and following it to the let

Die jaar was egter ekstra spesiaal, omdat hierdie vertoning opgekom het, presies 3 maande voordat hulle waarskynlik tonne Afrikaanse musiek kan speel by hulle eie huwelik's bevestiging. Ek

    Desmond and Leigh - When opposites attract

    "Does anyone remember the show 'Cheers'? (and no, I don't care that I'm giving away my age - Cheers was brilliant). During it's first 5 season run, 'Cheers' featured two main characters, named Sam and Dianne; these characters were two polar opposites, Sam was the fun and adventurous type, who was always up for a challenge and, more often than not, simply acting on impulse. Dianne was a bit different, serious, always thinking things through, seldom doing anything unexpected...

    "So I'll be honest here, I have never, officially, met Connie or Angelique. I've spoken to them over emails and text, of course, but I have never physically met them in person. And yet, through our correspondence, as well as sorting through their pictures to do this blog post, and, obviously, based on what my team has told me, I do kinda feel like I know them, more importantly, I can tell what they mean to each other. In every single photo, Angelique has a sparkle in her eye,

I had not met Lisa or Thomas prior to their wedding day, but having had the pleasure of spending this all important day with them, I

Monique is a friend of mine that I hold very dear and having known her for a while, I can truly say that Ruan is the puzzle piece that makes her complete; he is the kind of person that one cannot help but like, his patience, his mannerisms, his sense of humour...but mostly just the way he treats Monique and the happiness he has brought over her life. You two truly bring out the best i

    "Last night, while I was preparing this blog post, I was video chatting with my girlfriend - yes, I finally have a girlfriend again, miracles happen - obviously, the topic of 'Bride-of-the-Month' came up and she congratulated me on a fantastic marketing strategy, this compliment had amused me greatly, as I informed her that it's probably the worst idea I've ever had, paying a photographer every month to do shoots that are usually only seen by a handful of people, she laughed

I can honestly say, this is a shoot I'm not only going to remember forever, but it is one that I'm going to hold close to my heart. Christian and Tatiana are two of the kindest, most soft hearted and loveliest people I have met in a long time. Their love for each other is so real, and I will openly
