It takes a bit of guts to hang out of the window of a moving train… It takes a bit of guts to run along the top of a train and jump from one truck to the other. And it takes a bit of grit to do your E-session on an abandoned, derelict runaway train!
But if you meet this gritty and gutsy couple, Nelia & Jason, it all makes sense! Can’t wait to shoot their wedding at Molenvliet at the end of the month!

When Danie, the lead singer of the alternative rock band, Black Market Riots, approached us to shoot his wedding in March, we were over the moon – not only because these two are so such funky individuals, but also because we knew that this wedding would be something totally different and inspiring!
Now put two creative wack heads in Woodstock and watch the originality unfold! – One of our all time Best E-sessions!
The wedding is taking place at South Hill Wine Estate in Elgin. – I cannot wait! Subscribe to our Blog and we will notify you when Danie and Ilene’s Wedding photos are posted.

I met up with Ali & Steve at the Blowfish Restaurant in Blouberg last week for their pre-wedding shoot – and did the South Easter blow! This stretch of beach has one of the best views of Table Mountain… but is also a favourite spot for kite surfers… And with the wind blowing a gale, this was ideal conditions for the kite surfing guys! When I got there, the sky and beach was riddled with colourful kites – very pretty, but it left no space for us to do our thing. So instead we had a Mojito at the Blowfish and when 30 minutes later most of them had left, we took our gap.
Ali & Steve got married at Diemersfontein Wine Estate near Wellington on New Years Eve. I’ll be posting their wedding photos early next week. Subscribe to our RSS feed to be notified of this post.

Over the last 10 years Woodstock (Cape Town) has been gradually transformed to the new hot spot for designers, artists and trendy shops and businesses. But despite the influx, it has kept its charm – In many ways this area reminds me of Camden Town in London. For a photographer, Woodstock lends so many opportunities and interesting streets, allies and people to work with – I predict that this is only my first of many shoots in this “Funky Town” – The perfect spot for an E-session.
Oh… and not to mention the awesome couple Anton and Annette is to work with. I’m so looking forward to their wedding at Morgansvlei near Tulbagh this coming weekend. Subscribe to our RSS feed to be notified when their wedding photos are up on the blog.

With the holidays and crazy December schedule behind us, we are well behind on our blog posts. In the last month, ZaraZoo did no fewer than 8 weddings, 1 Pregnancy and 10 Engagement shoots – most of these still to be posted.
BA & Jhana got engaged at Vergelegen Wine Estate near Somerset West – so it was a fitting choice to head back there for their pre-wedding shoot. This coming weekend they will tie the knot at Rhebokskloof Wine Estate in Paarl – Enjoy!

I met up with Kobus & Lorianne for their pre-wedding shoot in Stellenbosch last week. Even though I studied there and know the place quite well, this was the first time that I had actually done a shoot in the town – unbeleivable! We started off at Cape to Cuba with a cocktail and then went for a romantic stroll next to the Eerste River.
Kobus and Lorianne’s relaxed West Coast Wedding took place last Saturday at Strandkombuis in Yzerfontein - Subscribe to our RSS feed to be notified when we post this on this coming Monday.

For some reason the Blog devils corrupted Rouan & Marinique’s E-session in Kalk Bay we did a few weeks ago. Here it is again.
It was so refreshing and inspiring to walk around this quaint little harbour town while doing the shoot. Rumour has it that up to about 20 years ago, Kalk Bay was a real dump and then the artist community moved in. Nowadays it is totally transformed to a bustling little town with very interesting nooks and crannies and hidden alley ways where you will discover the most interesting clothing boutiques, secondhand stores, art galleries and cosy coffee shops!

Rene & Martine will be getting married next weekend in Elgin at Mofam River Lodge. These two love the outdoors, so they opted for a wedding with a difference. There will be some surprises… I can’t let the cat out of the bag now, but keep your eye on the blog for their wedding photo post around the 18th of November.
It seems like Rene likes the surprise element. He popped the question to Martine in quite an unusual manner. Rene organised for a helicopter to pick them up at Buitenverwachting Wine Estate and then fly over their house in Hout Bay. There, without the knowledge of Martine, he painted “Marry Me” on the roof of their house! So, for their pre-wedding shoot, we returned to Buitenverwachting, a place that is very close to their hearts.
Subscribe to our RSS feed to see their wedding pics around the 18th of November.

This must be one of the most romantic shots we have shot this year! And who would’ve guessed that it was done in Durbanville!
Most people think Durbanville represents just the well established suburbs in the boerewors belt… Well, think again! Durbanville also has some of the finest wine farms in the Western Cape!
Thys & Ladine will tie the knot on the Louw family farm, Diemersdal, in the Durbanville Winelands in December. The farm has been in the family for 6 generations, more than 200 years. It is one of the oldest and most established wine farms in the country!
And… ZaraZoo is over the moon to be covering the wedding! The cherry on the cake, is that this wedding is coordinated by Aleit Weddings with collaboration of Karla Oettler of Absolute Weddings! – Two of the top wedding coordinators in South Africa putting heads together… can’t wait to see the amazing decor, style and fresh ideas they will cook up for this one! WOW!
