Jen & Tom Engaged

Tom and Jen are undoubtedly a gorgeous couple, so much so that they were featured on the cover of a magazine. I may be a bit biased though, as Jen is my sister, after all. Love you guys, you are amazing together and even though it’s going to be tough, we are all rooting for you, you guys rock! So much love xxx

Andre & Kirstin

Andre and Kirstin’s wedding vow renewal was a very special one for me, partly because Kirst and I have been friends since school and also because it was my first trip to the Kruger. Their bush inspired wedding was held at Grand Kruger Lodge in Marloth Park, just outside the Kruger National Park, on the Crocodile River. It was an unbelievable setting for such a happy celebration, with the bride and groom all the way from Australia and so many friends and family from all over the world joining them. I am so glad that you chose me to be a part of this fantastic celebration, you two are such a perfect couple. xx

Adam & Elizma

Adam and Elizma remind me of the saying, “The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation that you ever had.” They have a magnetic kind of quiet contentedness when they are with each other. Elizma and Adam tied the knot on a gorgeous sunny day at Canelands in Salt Rock, just north of Durban. Huge congratulations to both of you, it was such fun shooting your wedding xxx

Mike & Chelsea

Mike and Chelsea got married at the beautiful Palm Dunes Bach Lodge, in Blythedale on the KZN North Coast. The decor was seaside themed and every element was clearly carefully thought out. It was a very relaxed day so full of smiles, these two are so in love and it just showed all the way though the day. Congrats to the gorgeous Mr & Mrs Bracher xx Hair – Jacquie Tiplady/ Roxann de oliveira Make up – Bianca Yeo Decor – Tatum Joynt at Unforgettable Events Music – Michael Ferguson Cake – Decadent Desserts Venue – Palm Dunes Beach lodge Photography – Kate van Onselen

The Adendorf Family

I had the pleasure of spending some time with the Adendorf’s when they came down from Jo’burg for a coastal holiday. They have the sweetest little girls who were so much fun. Even though it was pretty windy, we had the best light – so many favourites out of this shoot, but this last one just gets me, how cute is she! So great to meet you and your beautiful family Loren xx

Sam & Marc’s Magical Litchi Orchard Wedding

Marc and Sam had their magical wedding at The Litchi Orchard in Salt Rock, KZN. One of the last weddings that the venue was due to hold. It was one of the most fun weddings I have shot because a large portion of the guests were friends and Sam and Marc really made sure that they included me in everything and even asked me to stay and party after – love that! It was such a pleasure to be a part your day, you two are so great together, wishing you endless joy and happiness together! xxx Check out their amazing service providers below: Venue: The Litchi Orchard Event Planner: Carolyn McNeil from Adore Weddings Decor: Labola Make Up Artist: Juliet Downes DJ: Kevin Louw p.s never seen people dance like this at a wedding, Kevin is the shiz!

Steph & Josh’s Winter Midlands Wedding

This was one of my ultimate weddings so far, Steph is a close friend of my little sisters’, so I have know her and Josh a fairly long time. I just adore this couple and their awesome sense of humour, Steph and Josh have a common love for football and funny faces (see above) not to mention that they are kinda pretty to look at. They got married at Bellwood, a gorgeous stud farm with so much scope for photos and with these two loving to mess around on camera, it was definitely the best wedding ever! So great also that both of my sisters and their partners were there, just made it all the more special for me. Congratulations to two very special people, thank you for choosing me to share this beautiful day with you, so much love xxx Venue: Bellwood Stud Caterer: Hamblins Make Up Artist: Brittany Morris Videographer: James Gibbs Studio DJ: DJ Worx – Alan McAbe

Jacki & Dave’s Winter Midlands Wedding

I was absolutely thrilled when I was asked to photograph Jacki and Dave’s wedding at Farside Farm in Nottingham Road a couple months back. I have know Jacki and Dave as a couple from when they first got together … where I did a shoot for them … and it was such a pleasure to be there to capture their special day. The day was super relaxed and happy and I was out of my mind happy with all of the gorgeous location options for the creative shoots. Hope that these shots bring through the happy vibes on the day. Congrats once again to the gorgeous Mr & Mrs Woolnough and wishing you many many more! xxx Venue: Farside Farm Event Planner: Graham Edmunds Cheese Cake & Special Elements: Tracy Martens Caterer: CHC Make Up Artist: Hayley Hair: Amanda Fox Videographer: Dave Atkinson of BND Imaging DJ: Jason Elkington
