Big Bay – E-session
December 3rd, 2008 Get notified of the next post
For Marieke en Louis, it was love at first sight. Ironically, they met at a wedding.
“There was no more space in the bus that ferried guests to the reception and this young lady (Marieke) offered me her seat, as long as she could sit on my lap” said Louis.
I never heard Marieke’s side of the story….
Marieke heard about ZaraZoo from a friend that attended a wedding we shot last year. We will be shooting their wedding this coming Saturday in Harrismith, Free State. I am ashamed to say that I have been all over the world, but can count the times I have been in the Free State and Gauteng on one hand!
Anyway – we met up for their E-session at Louis’s house on the beach front. The setting was perfect!
Photographer: Stefan Steenkamp
Assistants: Rene & Meyer Pieterse of M&R Photography
I spotted this light spot on the rocks, made by the reflection on one of the beachfront houses – who needs an assistant holding a reflector! It helped me to create some interesting shots.
Friends of ours, Meyer and Rene Pieterse of M & R Photography in London was down in Cape Town for business and they assisted us with the OCF (Off Camera Flash) Meyer took some pics of me in action which I hope he will post on his blog soon.
From what I could gather, Louis is quite a good rugby player – a hooker. But showed me that it is a myth that Hookers can’t kick – just joking. We had a lot of fun in the very cold water. they were great sports and Marieke could not stop laughing the whole way through. They are such a nice and happy couple!
