Marvin & Sade | Wedding | Shepstone Gardens
Marvin & Sade | Wedding | Shepstone Gardens
You don't marry the person you can live with—you marry the person you can't live without. Unknown
Winter weddings are getting more popular these days, due to many reasons. And one of the reasons I love weddings in winter so much is the fact that the light are out of this world! The down-side is the fact that your day is much shorter, because the sun sets at around 17:00 in Johannesburg, where it usually set at around 19:00 during summer. So long story short…the day started with a bang and went past very quickly! But what a day it was. Lots of family and friends celebrated Marvin and Sade’s wedding at the beautiful Shepstone Gardens, and HOW BEAUTIFUL! Sade looked so radiant in her Maggie Sottero dress and the look on Marvin’s face when he saw his princess was priceless!
The most special moment for me at their wedding was when Marvin had to speech and he commemorated the day to his son who passed away. Sade made the most precious locket with a photo of Marvin and his son, and he wore it close to his heart inside his jacket the whole day. Another highlight for me was when we did a reveal with Sade’s brother, who had the privilege of walking down the aisle with her. What an emotional and precious moment.
A lot can be said about their day, but let’s allow the photos to do the talking! Enjoy the photos!

I am a destination wedding and family photographer based in Johannesburg, South Africa. I love spontaneous natural moments during weddings that nobody really sees, and which I get to capture! Wow, what a privilege. I also love fun and quirky moments, which makes each wedding unique, fun and memorable!
I am also passionate to create natural yet mind-blowing photos. I love it when couples take a moment to forget about me as the photographer and just enjoy each other’s company and the moment right in front of them. Those moments are priceless and just a joy to capture.
I also love ending weddings off with a very creative sparkler photo, where I run around you just like a headless chicken…which always adds for some fun at the end of a long day!
