A St Francis Bay wedding photographer who knows this coast

I live in St Francis Bay, and as a wedding photographer St Francis Bay's beaches, dunes and quiet corners are where I feel most at home with a camera.

As your local wedding photographer, I know where the light falls at the end of the day, which beaches are sheltered when the wind picks up, and how to make the most of the place you have chosen.

I photograph weddings in St Francis Bay, Cape St Francis, Jeffreys Bay, Humansdorp, Oyster Bay and Eersterivier, and inland in Hankey, Patensie, the Gamtoos Valley and Kareedouw.

Whether you are looking for a small wedding photographer in St Francis Bay, a Jeffreys Bay wedding photographer for a beach wedding, or a Cape St Francis wedding photographer for an intimate celebration by the sea, I would love to be part of your day.
