I was very honored to be able to photograph Belinda & Wade’s beautiful intimate wedding at the gorgeous Cascade Manor in Paarl. With just family and a few close friends, this was such a special day for the gorgeous couple, even despite the almost-non-stop rain that day! Love my clients; Love my job!

It was truly a privilege to attend Amber & Nick’s wedding day at Mofam River Lodge. This time I was a second shooter AND a guest It was so special to be a part of this magical day and watch 2 friends say “I do”. Definitely one of the most memorable, special weddings I’ve had the honor to witness.

Once again, amazing decor and cake by the wonderful Vanilla Rose CT.

Jolene & Stefan’s Wedding 2014

Another ay-may-zing wedding assisting the wonderful Melissa Dietstein (Van Zyl)! This was probably once of the most fun times I’ve ever had at a wedding (and the most energetic bride I’ve ever met!)! Stefan and Jolene (a pilot and air-hostess respectively, how cute?!) had their wedding ceremony on a secluded beach and then moved the party to the fantastic De Uijlenis venue and literally danced the night away! This day was so full of love, life and laughter it couldn’t help but overwhelm you. Days like these are what reinforces our love for photography. Thank you Melissa and Stefan & Jolene for letting share in this very special day!

Another gorgeous wedding assisting the amazing Melissa Dietstein (Van Zyl) at one of our favorite venues, Hathersage Farm! Tara & Shane’s wedding day was so full of love! They were both incredibly beautiful people, inside and out, and after a picture perfect day, everyone partied like rockstars (even the little ‘uns)!

Dan & Belinda’s Wedding 2012*

Dan & Belinda’s wedding is one of my all-time favorites! I’m proud to say that this was another solo wedding for me. The entire wedding party was so friendly and were so fun to work with!

As a viniculturist and a viticulturist, Dan & Belinda had their venue at the beautiful Rickety Bridge wine farm and venue in Franschhoek. The weather had been on and off all weekend and only at the very last minute did the clouds clear enough to hold the ceremony outside; I kid you not, literally the second they said “I do”, the heavens opened up and The rains fell down on Africa! This was such a special day and I was so honored to be a part of it! Hope you enjoy!

“I do!”

My favorite Best-Man and Man-of-Honor moment! Such good sports!

Camilla & Omar’s Wedding 2011*

lisesloane — Wed, 25 Nov 2015 17:56:12 +0000

This post is especially special to me – This was my FIRST SOLO WEDDING EVER! (Happy dance!)

The bride and her family have known me for years (since I was only “yay-high”) and I am so grateful they entrusted me with this as my first entirely solo wedding. They are such amazing people and will forever hold a special place in my heart. I am incredibly honored to have shared in this special day with them!

What was also very precious, is that we were able to recreate a photo that Camilla’s parents had taken on their wedding day, in the same field with the same mountain in the background.

Thank you Weyer and Mehtar families for letting me share this day with you!

Weddings 2009

As you might have gathered from previous posts, I am incredibly grateful to the amazing Melissa Dietstein (van Zyl) for agreeing to give me my first position “Job shadowing”/”Interning” after my photographic studies. She was brave enough to give an inexperienced student a phenomenal opportunity and I will forever be indebted to her for that. I got so much more than just an experience and photographic exposure (no pun intended). Melissa is one of the most amazing, positive, kind-hearted, strong, loving, caring, fun, creative and talented people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting; she has been a mentor, friend and role model in life. Most of the weddings you will see on this site were captured as her assistant/2nd shooter, the 5 below being the first of many.

You can check out her website here.

Seeff Christmas Party

lisesloane — Mon, 05 Oct 2015 18:04:58 +0000

I didn’t think I could possibly be as giddy at a corporate function as I was at this Christmas Party. The guests were all secretly given a character to dress up as, so the entrance to the party felt more like a red carpet event! Once again, the Phenomenal decor was put together by the amazing Wendy Southworth from Vanilla Rose CT. Find out more about Vanilla Rose CT here.
