I met this very interesting couple with our pre-wedding shoot to a beautiful protea farm in Rayton, and in a few hours of interesting twists and turns from what we envisioned it to be, I got to know them much more intimate. And it was beautiful and for sure different in the things that they treasure in life.

Bronwynne loves good food and her friends testified that she does not only have a good taste for good food, but also she can prepare a meal that will win Jean over to love her for life! Soooo, no wonder that this couple had a complete different approach to their wedding feast. For them it was all about the food and the sensory journey shared with intimate friends and family. And then off course will you choose the Chef of the Year, Chantel Dartnall to enchant you with her creations. When you enter into the Francolin Conservancy, you enter another world wherein you feel like a king or a queen, served and spoiled with an experience out of this world.

Jean and Bronwynne, thank you for allowing me to capture the story of your unforgettable wedding day and to get to know you closer. I wish you all the best with the journey ahead. May you live life in full colour and may you always remember your Creator and give Him the glory for it all.

For His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen since the creation of the world, being understood through what He has made… – Romans 1:20a
