We shot Oliver and Chantel’s engagement photos at Galagos Country Estate. They are getting married there in October. They were also referred to us by Altmar and Marelize. This is our second wedding at Galagos, our first was Willem and Robaix’s.

The main feature at Galagos is the trees – there are loads of them. Thin, high trees. We started off slowly; easing into the shoot and getting to know them better. What a nice couple! They’ve know each other for five years already and at first dated in English, only realising a nit later that he was German and she Afrikaans…

As the time passed and we all found our groove together, we even got them to lie down in the dirt for a couple of shots. Yay!!! Thank you for being such good sports!

Being a wedding photographer, I try to keep some shots for the wedding and not do them during the engagement shoot or so called “e-session”. Luckily with Galagos being a big venue on big grounds, there are a bucket load of interesting nooks and crannies where to get all kinds of interesting images.

We can’t wait for October!
