Wedding Photography

but different.

 

When the music has stopped and the flowers have wilted, the images are all you have that remains to remind you of this incredible day of covenant with all your favourite humans in the entire world.


I never want you to forget how it felt and I especially don’t want you feeling awkward or posed on your wedding day.

 
 
 

After getting married myself I realized that the cliché “it goes by so fast” is used so often for a reason - because it’s 100% true. Never again will all your nearest and dearest be together in the same space. That on its own is already a major cause for celebration. Let’s add in the fact that you are entering into a sacred covenant with your favourite human and embarking on the most epic adventure ever. 

WOW.

Did you also get goosebumps just thinking about it?


 

 

If there ever was a day filled with moments worthy of keeping in your memory bank it’s this.  So let me tell your story in an authentic, photojournalistic way, focusing on what it is that makes you, you.


LET'S CAPTURE
  •  Your best friend holding back the tears when seeing you for the first time

  • That side-eye action during the ceremony when you can’t take your eyes off each other

  • Your adorable nephew desperately trying to reach the wedding cake before you’ve even cut it 

  • A stolen kiss between your parents during the speeches

  • Your granny rocking it on the dance floor


Let me capture everything you’re feeling so that you can keep on reliving and remembering it for years to come.

 
 

 

And can I tell you the best part? None of this requires you posing awkwardly or doing anything that makes you feel less like you. You do you boo, I’ll just capture it all while you spend the day doing things your way.

I am all about effortless wedding photography that tells sincere stories of brave humans, so trust me with this and let’s start the conversation. 

Let’s tell the story of you

 
 

They made me feel comfortable and at ease, faded into the background without me stressing about a camera in my face, fell right into place with exactly what we needed and wanted.

They are so kind and delivered incredible service according to our needs. We also enjoyed being able to experience extra time with guests with the canape’s instead of rushing off to take photo’s. It was so chilled and we enjoyed and could savour each moment.

DESTINATION WEDDINGS

Adventures are out there!

 

My absolute sweetspot is getting to combine my love for travel & photography — it really makes my heart explode! So whether you’re getting married on a mountain peak in the Drakensberg or a small winery in the south of France, don’t hesitate to contact me - travel is my jam! 


I’ve shot couples in France, Finland, Vietnam, Hungary and Spain and hope to add many more to the list. So if you’re having a destination wedding just let me know and I will gladly work out a custom package for you. I have a set rate for travel and if I book more than one shoot I divide the travel between clients (score!)

 

Albums & Prints

 
 
 
 

 

Nothing says heirloom quite as much as a beautifully printed album. Living in an age where most photos live online, there is something quite magical to holding your favourite moments, printed in your hand.

A physical reminder of such an epic day.

Choose between a smooth or textured linen cover in two different sizes. If you want something small and sweet I also do 15cmx15cm photo books that include 24 of the best images. Perfect to stack on a bookshelf or gift your parents.

Depending on your chosen package you will also be receiving prints and should you want to order extra you can just let me know.

Nothing beats walking through your home and having your eye catch one of your favourite memories - it’s guaranteed to make you smile.

 
 

What the FAQ?

 
  • I live in Somerset West, South Africa (30 min from Cape Town and next to the Cape Winelands, how spoilt am I?)

  • Whether it’s Beaufort-West or Bora Bora I want to be there. I LOVE travelling and shooting in new places kicks my creative drive into overgear, so yes - definitely! The first 40km from Somerset West or Johannesburg is included (yay!) thereafter it will be charged at R5.00 per km.

  • No fear when adventure is near ;) As mentioned above, travelling is my JAM so chat to me and we can always make a plan. If your wedding is in one of my bucket list locations (to see that click here) I might just be cheeky and waive the travel fee completely. For weddings abroad let me know and I will send you my destination packages.

  • Yes - I’ve got your back! You’re welcome to pay the full amount over 4 instalments. I’m very familiar with that sneaky minx called cash flow management.

  • I’m a firm believer that you should get exactly what you want on your wedding day. The packages are guidelines, but I’m always open to building a custom quote for you so let me know what your heart desires and I will gladly make it happen.

  • My heart has a very special place for the smaller, slower pace of an elopement. Simply pop me an email and I will create a custom package that has your name written all over it.

  • Yes please! I give 200% on a wedding day and although I might be armed with all of the snacks, nothing beats a cooked meal to fuel my fire.

  • You can call me Anneri night owl Wasserman, because I am always amped to party alongside you guys. Just say the word and I will add additional hours at R3000 per hour.

  • Knew it! ;)

 
 

I feel it merits a mention that I have a super soft spot for black and white (as you will have probably noticed by looking through some of my work). I fell in love with photography while shooting film and during my studies I learned how to develop film myself. Time spent in the darkroom felt like pure magic.

So if you have a monochrome loving heart like I do, just know you’re in good hands.

Here’s a collection of some of my favourite black and whites. Cause when the colour is stripped away the story is all that remains.
