Christelle and Arnold at Oude Drift









The pictures says it all. One of the more fun weddings I had in a while. Christelle and Arrie are a fun loving couple and not at all what you would expect from an engineer and an accountant. There is nothing straight and narrow about these two... Christelle showed off her quirky side with black board notes that was used in the photo shoot - black boards that hubby Arrie made on her instructions off course. The end result was amazing. Thanks for using me as your photographer to record the happy occassion for you and for putting the fun back into photography for me.

Natasha and Michael at Grootbosch

When I think about the Da Silva's big day, I can't help but hear Alanis Morisette's singing in my head:

"It's like rain on your wedding day. It's a free ride when you've already paid. It's the good advice that you just didn't take. Who would've thought... it figures''

Yes, the first thunder storm of the rainy season hit North West on the wedding day but alls well ends well. The bride was breathtakingly beautiful and even though we only had 10 minutes give or take to take pics of the happy married couple before the rain came pouring down we made the most of it.

"Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you when you think everything's okay and everything's going right and life has a funny way of helping you out when you think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up in your face''

They say rain on your wedding day spells good luck. So just when you think everything has gone wrong - Michael and Natasha, may you be showered with good luck, love and joy through all your married life... just like on your wedding day.
