Kenton & Natalie's Wedding Celebration {Oakfield Farm}
Kenton & Natalie's beautiful wedding photos at Oakfield Farm are on my blog!
Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. Song of Solomon
It's the first time I did a wedding at Oakfield Farm, and I understand the hype around this place - it's just amazing! It offers so much for couples getting married here and the staff are a dream to work with!
Kenton and Natalie were the winners of the March 2016 Country Life Magazine Win a Wedding competition! This is such an amazing opportunity for any photographer, and it was an absolute honor to be a part of this and to work along side so many amazing suppliers!
Kenton is a drummer...yes...he is in a band...and Natalie met him at a rock show! They have been together for almost 8 years, and this is how Natalie describes Kenton and their realtionship:" He is hilarious, he cares, he loves, and he laughs...mostly at me because I am just a clumsy twit, that has a weird, crazy streak in this girly exterior".
They are such an amazing couple to work with, and their love for each other and the way they enjoy each other's company produces such amazing chemistry, such that I literally just captured them while they did their thing! And above it all they are such beautiful people, so they just flowed in their pictures! And I did mention that Natalie cracks up for everything Kenton says or does...she is just one ball of fun and laughter!
Natalie'e amazing make-up was done by Made Up by Kylie!
Kenton & Natalie did most of the planning themselves, but they had help from Barbra from Decorange-it.
The styling and flowers were done by House of Functions, the funky personalized cake was made by Annah Fudge, and sound by Fresh Flava was just epic!
Please enjoy the pictures and do not hesitate to leave a comment at the end!
Natalie and Kenton were so relaxed, and I believe the results speaks for themselves. I am certain that the flask of vodka "potion" Kenton had in his jacket pocket or the Tequila Natalie enjoyed had something to do with it...?
This wedding was held in August, which meant the days were starting to warm up, but the nights were still rather cold...solution...heat up at the fireplace! or just spend time with the wedding party and guests...! They absolutely had a blast, dancing the night away on dance and rock music!

I have found the one whom my soul loves. Song of Solomon
Kenton and Natalie are such naturals in front of the camera, and boy oh boy are they beautiful people! I had a blast photographing them at the Pine Forest in Bryanston, and the element of adding their dog just made this an epic shoot! I think I am going to phone you guys if I need models for a styled shoot, most definitely! I also knew while I was doing their e-session that their wedding celebration was happening in 2 weeks, which made me super excited doing this shoot!
Their love for each other are so tangible which made the resulting images much more amazing!

It was a huge privilege to be a part of their big day and I enjoyed every second of it!
It is amazing how their love story unfolded from their engagement shoot late last year up to their wedding celebration! It is very rare to find two people so much in love for the Heavenly Father and each other! They are a joy to be around and their beauty shines through in interacting with them and also in the pictures.
Enjoy the pictures and I pray a rich blessing over your marriage! and please do not hesitate to leave a comment at the end!

Irene & David {e-session}
Irene & David's e-session are on the blog now!
"Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own." H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
I just loved my time with Irene & David. We had this huge plan of doing the shoot in between pine trees, which are almost like a little forest just outside their estate. But we soon realised that it was located inside someone's yard and we had no access to it...oops. So I had to put my thinking cap on ones again, and I had to improvise! I love these moments which allows me to show one of my clients that I can think on my feet, which is so very important when strange things happen on your big day!
We still used the area in front of their estate, but I ended up shooting with the trees in the background! The results are epic, and Irene & David looked amazing on their engagement shoot! And Irene couldnt stop laughing. They are such easy going and fun people!
Irene also asked me to incorporate their two dogs in the pics and they added a cool element to shoot way at the end of the day!
I also played around in #Photoshop to create the double exposure shots, and they are definitively my favourite shots of the day! #shotoftheday
Can't wait for their wedding next year in the bushveld!
