This wedding was the best thing that could happen to a photographer closing the doors for a month or two. Just editing this wedding made me laugh and (almost) cry all over again. The speeches could really have carried on till morning.
Anyway, things are returning back to normal at the studio. News is that Cindy has joined me full time as of the 1st of August (well, the 2nd I guess), and as some of you might know by now, she will be handling most of the e-mails and other admin around the studio.
Following are a few of my favourites from Maita and Reagan’s wedding. Since I personally love B&W (who doesn’t?), this selection reflects accordingly.
Coolest band ever at a wedding, they made the trip to Swaziland worth it on their own, and they caused a fair amount of camera shake on my part. Pity I don’t have a name that I can post, but I’m pretty sure they were local.
We are back in the land of impatient road hogs…funny how obvious the fact is if you spend a mere two days away from all the chaos. Swaziland is gorgeous, even though the most we saw of it was on the way back via Bulumbo (?) border.
I know I know, it took me irrisponsibly long, but I think I’m finally getting my head around this Lightroom thing, and it is very liberating indeed. I might actually have a life some day soon.
Warning to all non-photographers taking road trips with photographers: Better to leave the Jo-ASAP-hannesburg mentality snugly at home, the trip WILL take a substantial number of hours longer than usual, no matter how freezing cold it is.
30km off road towards the border, through a muddy forest, sometimes spinning and sliding our way up hilltops. Lots of oohs and aahs, the kind you made after a hiding in primary school.
We stopped in Kaapsche Hoop for a pancake, and the best Milo on this side of the border
