2010 Wedding Photographers & Industry Party

This fun event and the largest of its kind was hosted by Ian Mitchinson and Monica Dart at Boo Radleys in Cape Town and what a huge success the evening was! I met so many incredible photographers and finally able to put faces to some of the photographers blogs I follow :) Jean-Pierre Uys, Ian Mitchinson and Christine Meintjes gave us some great motivational talks to get the evening started.

I felt a little silly by taking my 'muk-en-druk' (point-and-shoot) baby camera to a photographers party but mustered up the courage to haul it out and take photos anyway..hehe..but now I am in all the photo's because nobody wants to be photographed alone at a party...see pics below x

Long Street - taken with my phone.

The best for last - me and Christine Meintjes.

Spring + playing with presets

I was walking in my garden this week and came across a busy bee amongst the lavender and it game me a Spring feeling. I thought I would share these with you!

I edited these pics using my new Adobe Lightroom presets from KIKI.co.za. If you are a photographer I suggest you have a look at the presets at Kiki and maybe purchase a few ;) Lightroom has changed the way I edit my photos in a big way!

Double sneak peek! :)

Second shooter for Eric Uys - Sandra&Tobie

I had the awesome opportunity to be second shooter for Eric Uys - brother of wedding photography extraordinaire Jean-Pierre Uys. I learned a lot from him and had lots of fun at Tobie & Sandra's wedding. Below are a couple of Eric's shots from the day to view more visit his blog here.

 Read more in Part 1 of Genna & Handré's wedding here.

The theme of the wedding was warm oranges and reds! Genna's brother designed all the wedding stationery and Menu's. We had so much fun in the vineyards at Langverwagt taking full advantage of the warm golden glow that was setting over the valley. Then it was time for the formalities and party! 

Check out the amazing cake! Love the heart details!!!

Was so cute that Handre 'piggy-backed' his bride!
