Natasha + Richard

You are safe. You are worthy. You are loved...

These two incredible humans will be tying the knot at The Laughing Forest on the 23rd of September! I cannot wait to witness, capture and document their love story. These two have honestly stolen a big piece of my heart...

Although they were hesitant to rise and shine before the birds for their recent sunrise engagement shoot, there is no doubt that it was worth it! We were blessed with the most beautiful rich golden light that only South African winters have to offer. One of Port Edwards little private beaches made for the very perfect spot. Before long Boetie and Tasha started soaking in all the fun and totally forgot about me xxx This is when the magic happens, when people open up just enough for me to see their love...

People tend to over think the process of an engagement session... We tend to overthink where the ''magic will come from''.

I've learnt over the years that no amount of Pinterest board hoarding will ever result in the ''perfect shoot''. There is one simple rule to create beautiful, priceless and authentic photographs - Be yourself...

So many stunning couples all around the world are saddened by the impact of Covid-19. Brides and grooms have been planning their special wedding days for months and yet now find themselves worried and stressed about what the future holds.

To each and everyone of you - Don't be worried, don't be sad, don't overthink anything, don't lose sleep and please don't panic. The truth is, nothing in life is as it should be at the moment, for anyone, and the only thing that will get you through this is your very own perception. Try to focus on the fact that you now have more time to plan and perfect all the little details, you now have more time to iron out the details of your vows, you now have time to browse on Pinterest to find some inspiration for photographs you may specifically want, that you can share with your photographer :) You can do it ladies, please remind yourselves that we are all in this together...

Sending tons of Love Chenique Slier
