Ross & Melissa

Whew this was one of those days where you breath a sigh of relief when things work out. With a number of locations planned it looked like we were going to be rained out, with mother nature throwing in rain on regular intervals, but with enough gaps in the weather everything worked out, all the thanks to Ross and Melissa for giving loads of time to get the photo's done. After a lovely ceremony  with Ross's Dad as minister , live music and a guest appearance by Victor on piano who flew all the way from the States to be at the wedding, all went off without a hitch. We managed to photograph the family at the church and took a number of pics of Ross and Melissa there to, with the rain testing us. Then loading the wedding party up we ventured up to the mountainside of Rhodes Memorial and then through to Milnerton beach where we were treated to a lovely sunset and Ross carrying his bride through the river which could have turned into a serious photo moment :) The reception was held at the Italian club in Milnerton . Congrats to the couple and thanks for having us along to share your day, it was special. All the best for the future. 
Thanks to Alex my son  for assisting me.

Grant and Melvina 27 February 2010

Grant and Melvina were married on the 27th of February  at a beautifull old Guest house in Wynberg called The Palm House . The ceremony and reception were all held here , and all the photographs were done in and around the grounds. What a beaurifull venue. Alex my son who assisted me and I spent quite some time with Melvina at home, which we always enjoy as it also allows us to get know everyone. After arriving at the venue Melvina was met at the aisle by a slightly nervous looking husband to be (we were a tad late :) )  who as were his groomsmen  all  impecably dressed. After a lovely ceremony we went into the photoshoots and I wish we had some more time as the venue really lends itself to photographs.

Grant and Melvina make a lovely couple and it was an absolute pleasure to be so involved with their day.

Congrats and all the best for the future guys.
