Sailor Wedding - Part One

Richard & Casey
Jex Estate,
Umvoti.

Meet our awesome friends Casey and 'Richard the Sailor'. When they announced that we will be the lucky ones to photograph their wedding, we literally did a little happy (penguin x) dance around our studio! These are not only the coolest and most beautiful people in Durban, they are also the most 'in-love' (for lack of a better term) people we have seen in a very long time. These guys celebrate love in a way that became so awesomely part of them and their wedding, the entire day ended up being exactly that - a celebration of love.
Thank you (Penguin and Shark) for being great new friends, for reminding us how awesome love is and for allowing us to share this 'love-ly' day with you x


This wedding was way too awesome to whittle the pictures down to one post only. Be sure to check back for more of the celebration tomorrow!

// Autumn Wedding

Nick & Jenine
Oranje Farm
Free State

We had the pleasure of shooting our second wedding at beautiful Oranje Farm, just outside the quaint little village of Clarens. Only this time it was in Autumn and the colours were mind blowing!
Nick, an award-winning writer, and Jenine, an established theatre-maker are awesome and bubbly people and this reflected in their wedding. From her bright red shoes and cute pink Tutu-style dress to the bunting flags to the Jeep that she arrived in - this was one celebration we were thrilled to be a part of!

Sneak Peak - Joe & Marzaan

Joe & Marzaan
Fraanschhoek, Winelands

little pink book

welovepictures decided it's time for some good ol' advertising, hence the face-lift and re-branding. Up until now most of our work has come via our website or word of mouth from bragging-bubbly-brides via our awesome father.

But when the Little Pink Book contacted us, we thought it can't hurt to give it a go... especially with us relocating to the Cape and all :)

The Little Pink Book is really actually quite super cute. It is small enough to fit into a handbag and filled with tons of awesome info - not the usual corny wedding-ish stuff! Otherwise we wouldn't be in it :P It's handy for making notes, re-scribbling budgets and then of course everything a bride might need to know to plan her day.

The Western Cape and Gauteng 2010/11 issues will be on sale from September and you can buy a copy directly from their site or from Kalahari, Exclusive Books and even Woolies too. Pretty nifty hey? We thought so too.

P.S Note it says Cape Town in the bottom right. Exciting stuff :)
