Life is a bit of a blur these days. Weddings on weekends and the rest of the time it is edit, edit and even more edits. My love for tea keeps me sane between it all. It’s also quite strange that when I am at my busiest that my subconscious would be at its most ambitious levels ever. New ideas jump into my mind that gives direction to my fuzzy future. I love what I do, but I want to do more. So much more. I can feel it and diversity is what gives it balance. Maybe it’s the Libran thing or maybe its just plain old me. All I know is that it has to be done even though there is only now.
One thing that I would still love to do is book killer couples to shoot weddings for. Dennis and Tanya again was such a fabulous couple. All they had to do is just be themselves and the day would be easy to capture. Even with a typical hot day that makes the Hartbeespoort so unique, it didn’t faze them a bit. I hardly ever get emotional during a wedding, but there was a second or two during Dennis and Tanya’s ceremony where everyone could feel the love. It was huge. For me the tears were so close, but I cracked a smile instead and pretended all is normal. My world stopped for that second or too. It was so cool.
Both the ceremony and reception took place at Red Ivory and again this truly unique venue didn’t dissapoint. What I love about Red Ivory is that it offers such quality cuisine, better than any other venue out there and the staff are so damn good too.
Oh before I forget, Tanya thanks so much for the home-made marmalade. It did the ninja kick on the taste buds and it’s the best – ever. And yes you were right, it’s fantastic with cheese too! :-)
