That’s it. Your enquiry is on its way to me.
Thank you for reaching out and considering me to capture your wedding day. I know there are a lot of decisions to make when planning a wedding, so I’m really glad you found your way here.
I’ve received your details, and I will get back to you within 24 hours. For now, you can tick one more thing off your wedding planning list.
One step closer to photos that feel like you.
What happens next?
I'll personally go through your enquiry and check if I'm available for your wedding date.
I might also give you a quick call. I like to get to know the couples I work with, hear a little about their plans, and make sure I'm the right person for what they're looking for.
After all, choosing your photographer is about more than just beautiful photos. It's also about feeling comfortable with the person who'll be there to capture those moments.
From there, I'll share the relevant options and pricing so you can see what works best for you.
For now, there's nothing else you need to do. Your enquiry is safely in my inbox.
While you are here, there is something I would love you to know.
You do not need to be good in front of a camera to have wedding photographs that mean something to you.
Most couples are not models. They do not spend their weekends practising poses, and quite a few arrive telling us that one of them would rather be almost anywhere than in front of a camera.
That is completely fine.
My approach to wedding photography and film is calm, gently guided and centred around the people you care about. You will get help when you need it, without your wedding turning into one long photoshoot.
Because years from now, the photographs that matter most will not only show you what everything looked like.
They will remind you of the laugh you did not plan.
Your parents' faces.
The people who travelled to be there.
That quiet moment together before walking back into the party.
And what being there actually felt like.
Wedding photos that feel like you, not a performance.
If natural, meaningful photographs and an easy experience sound like what you want for your wedding, take a look at how we work with real couples.

KIND WORDS

"Etienne so beautifully captured our private ceremony.
His friendly personality made it so easy to be in front of the camera and if we ever have another event in Cape Town, I would definitely contact Etienne again.
I highly recommend his services. He has a special creative eye that makes sure you get traditional and non-traditional shots.
We love our photos so much!"
For now, you’re all set.
Your enquiry is safely in, and there's nothing else you need to do. I'll be in touch soon, and hopefully we'll get a chance to chat and get to know each other a little better.
In the meantime, enjoy planning a wedding that feels like the two of you. Remember, it's your day, and the moments that matter most are often the ones you never planned.
I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes.
