Jana&Ryan

Jana and Ryan were super lucky to have a wedding that felt like a happy summer-day. Jana got ready with her lovely friends at a stunning guesthouse, wore a beautiful (her mom said portugese designed) wedding dress, has awesome young parents we got to know a little…
It was a wedding with loads of young people and ended up as a huge party! It was a pleasure being part of the fun! Thanx!
Now we’re off. Off to Germany, Switzerland, England and whatever comes… hey, and WE GET MARRIED on October 23rd… so watch this space for our very own wedding pictures. Cheers, Toni

Eine fesselnde Geschichte..

Ein Lesetipp:

“Ich bin mir ein Rätsel”

Es gibt den alltäglichen GEDÄCHTNISVERLUST, etwa das Vergessen einer Telefonnummer. Es gibt Unfallopfer, denen die Stunden vor dem Knall fehlen. Extrem selten aber gibt es Fälle wie diesen: einen Mann, der plötzlich sein komplettes Leben vergaß.

von Marc Schuermann; die gesamte Story gibt’s hier.

Elliott Erwitt

Another great photographer I got to know more lately is Elliott Erwitt. But let’s hand the word over to Wikipedia.

Elliott Erwitt (b. 26 July 1928 Paris, France) is an advertising and documentary photographer known for his black and white candid shots of ironic and absurdsituations within everyday settings — the master of the “decisive moment”.”

Duane Michals

So lucky I found out about the great photographer Duane Michals while chatting to one of SA best photographers Dale Yudelman – I’m busy with his story.

Horseplayartsclub – performance and live music

My very best friend Saskia has an exhibition on Friday the 12th at the Proud Galleries in Camden in London. In case you’re there, please check it out… she’s busy creating heaven!

“Horseplay is on Tuesday 12th October and starts at 7.30pm, come early to see great performance and live art and stick around for the bands and DJ after…”

belt

Inspired by orchidgrey, I will buy myself today a nice belt. Happy Monday and a fabulous week! (Europe-countdown = 3 more sleeps, yesss). x

Jo-Dine & Francois' wedding…

What a wedding. Do you remember Jo-Dine and Francois’ awesome engagement-shoot we did in Kalk Bay? (If not, have a look here)

Well… Jo-Dine is a step-dancing vintage-girl, Francois is a humurous Afrikaans-boy that makes everyone laugh. Since we met them the first time, we have seen each other many times again and became friends. We love how they love each other, treat each other, look at each other, dance with each other… and the wedding was a true love-statement! Both families were soo involved to make this a vintage-stylish-love-event. Even Jo-Dine’s school-kids came, to have a look at the beautiful teacher-bride. A very sweet wedding that we’ll always remember. Can’t wait to have dinner with you, Jo-Dine & Francois and hear the honeymoon-road-trip-news. Toni & Des
