Michelle and Ben are the sweetest couple. He's from the States, she's from SA and they met on a Christian dating website. I'll save their story for when I blog their wedding photos.
For now though....enjoy the sweetness that took place at Ushaka Beach on the Moyo pier. It took us a while to arrange a day to shoot as Durban has seen a lot of rain recently...but when we got it, it was beautiful!!
High -: seeing dolphins from the pier, Low - getting stung by a blue bottle. :(
Charity and Reece are the youngest married friends that I have. Being unmarried and 26, I always wondered how people can commit and KNOW at such a young age who they want to spend their lives with.
Having got to know these two however, I can see that age means nothing. They love each other fiercely and are incredibly committed to one another. It's beautiful to watch and I love being in their company!!
Photographing their anniversary photos in Durban's City Center was great. Charity is actually Canadian and has made a life here with her husband. (Commitment eh??)
I hardly ever get to venture into this other world, while I'm stuck up in the suburbs. Quite a shame really - the architecture of our old buildings is amazing and worth being enjoyed. Reece was the one who suggested the we climb to the top of the Royal hotel to enjoy the sunset (high five Reece!) and eat the cake that Charity very lovingly baked.
While up there we also got to watch a French/South African production team set up for a spectacular trapeze show that was performed 2 days later. Now THAT was incredible - but alas, I took that evening off and did not carry my camera. so have nothing to show you.
Enjoy the photos and HAPPY WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Charity & Reece.
Xx.
Despite wanting to call this couple Kirtstin and Ben and not Kristin and Ken (as it's supposed to be) the shoot went well and I think they look just too cute.
We photographed at Botanic Gardens...that place is amazing!
Don't you think they are going to have one gorgeous looking child???
Dan decided to propose to Emma at the Botanical gardens - and further surprise her by having family and friends waiting at the Gazebo to celebrate with champagne and strawberries.
The weather was perfect, the sun set was romantic and everyone had a great time.
Good job Dan!
