Lené & Abri l Weddings
By Catherine Mac on December 21, 2011 | Category: Blog,Recent Shoots | 13 CommentsWhen Lené said she planned on having a DIY wedding she wasn’t kidding. Lené, who is currently completing her studies in fashion design, even made her own (super gorgeous) wedding gown! I loved the crocheted waistband she incorporated into her dress, taken from an old garment of her grandmother’s.
I loved all the personal touches that went into this beautiful day, home grown succulents as wedding favours, Lene’s hydrangea bouquet made from flowers in her mothers (beautiful!) garden, personal notes to each and every one of their guests – my assistant and myself included!
Lené and Abri light up like Christmas trees when they look at each other and photographing these two for a day was such a joy! Thank you to Joni, my assistant for the day – you were awesome!
Lené and Abri, it was such a pleasure coming up to Pretoria to photograph your beautiful wedding and also a big thank you to your wonderful families for making me feel so welcome and appreciated.
