Liesl + Greg's Wedding: 12/21/2009 - Before saying goodbye to South Africa back in December, I second shot for the third time in a four-day span with Christine Meintjes. Although all the weddings I worked with her was incredibly beautiful (the venue, flowers, details...everything!), each one was so unique and different from the others. Liesl and Greg were such kind and thoughtful people. It's no surprise their amazing day right along the coast of Cape Town was filled with so much love and joy.
I shot Greg and his brothers getting ready and even had a chance to chat with them before the ceremony started. Within minutes, the family was calling me by my first name, asking how I was doing, and just treating me like part of the wedding. You couldn't be happier for two people like Liesl and Greg! Although I met them on their wedding day, I truly felt like I've known L + G for a while.
And once again, extra special thanks to Christine for inviting me to shoot three ever-amazing weddings with her and also to Iaan for showing Nancy and me all around Stellenbosch/Cape Town. It was truly an experience of a lifetime, one I'll never forget. See you guys in Vegas at WPPI!
