I’ve been doing a wedding photography workshop with the Cape Town School of Photography, taught by the amazingly talented Mark Kalkwarf. We had some lectures last week, and Saturday we had a full day shoot at Constantia Uitsig wine estate, where a whole wedding was staged, from bridal prep all the way through to a reception and cutting the cake. The weather didn’t really play along, with rain the whole morning, but it did give us gorgeous soft light from the cloudy skies. With 2 great models we had many opportunities to get great shots, these are a few of my favourites from the day.
Models: Kirsten and Besuthu
Hair and make-up: Samantha Laura Kaye





















Hi Nick,
There are some nice shots here. My favorite is the first shot. The graininess and black and white makes it a very attractive shot. You framed her in a very interesting way.
Agree, some stunners, but the 1st shot is AMAZING
Wow, that first shot… gorgeous.
That first shot is straight out of a magazine!!!
Have to agree with the others that that first shot is stunning. The grain and B&W conversion are spot on. Nice work.
Looks like you came away with some great stuff. Love your B&W
Nick, these are absolutely beautiful. Great work.
Nick, these are quite exceptional – well done! 1st and 5th are just outstanding.
Thanks everyone for your kind words!
I love the film look in these images, with the first one definitely being my favorite.
I agree, like the 1st and 5th best, gorgeous portraits and love the grain
Those B&W conversions are great!
Haha I love that last shot, her expression is priceless!
the first image is lovely – has the look of neopan 400 film. beautiful and intimate composition – well done.
I am loving the first image! Wow! The processing is great, too!!!
