Ilse + Adrian – Devon Valley Wedding

Nick — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 07:00:05 +0000

Well, technically not a wedding. Ilse & Adrian got married in New York City (where they live) quite a few months before this, but without Ilse’s family present. So they renewed their vows in Stellenbosch, with Ilse’s family and friends, and also Adrian’s family who flew in from the US.

The ceremony was held at the Devon Valley Hotel and the reception was just up the road at the House Of JC Le Roux.

Frances + George – Cape Point Wedding

Weddings come in all shapes and sizes. This one was a lovely, small family affair on a farm near Cape Point. The ceremony was held in the bush above the farmhouse, followed by lunch at the farmhouse. The bride, believe it or not, is carrying twins!

Nina + Jorge – Strandkombuis Wedding

Nick — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 11:05:57 +0000

I’m not supposed to pick favourites, but this will go down as one of the most fun weddings I’ve ever shot. Nina, from Cape Town, and Jorge, from Santiago, Chile, braved the wind and partied it up at an amazing wedding at Strandkombuis on the beach in Yzerfontein. A fantastic couple with the nicest bunch of friends and family that you could ever hope to meet.

Cavendish Bridal Expo

Nick — Sun, 14 Aug 2011 08:30:14 +0000

Cavendish Square in Claremont held their first wedding expo last weekend, and I had a stand! The expo was a great success, and I’ve already booked a wedding from it, with hopefully a few more to follow. I also got some great feedback on my work, both from future brides and fellow photographers, which is always nice.

The expo also coincided with my rebranding. Instead of Nick Coyne Photography, my wedding photography business is now known as Nick Coyne Wedding Photojournalism. The main reason for the change was to immediately convey what kind of photography I do through the name. Introducing the word “photojournalism” also makes the brand stand out a little from the hundreds of other wedding photography businesses out there, and is very clear about what my style and approach is to shooting a wedding day. I also took it as an opportunity for a visual refresh, to a logo that I feel is a little more relaxed and hopefully more representative of me and my photography.

Can’t wait to get out there and shoot my next wedding – first one of the season is in September!

The Next Level

Nick — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 14:27:23 +0000

Winter is a quiet time for weddings in Cape Town, so to keep the creative juices flowing and continue growing my skills I recently attended a great workshop called “The Next Level”, conducted by the experienced and talented Ian Mitchinson and Dror Eyal. Both these guys have been around the block, but they have very different approaches to shooting and processing.

I wasn’t really sure what to expect from the workshop, but we spent day one shooting on location and in the studio with some models. As you can see from my images, the location shots were my favourites. Day two looked at brand positioning, editing and workflow. The black & white image below is typical of my style, whilst the colour ones are more experimental. It was great trying out some new things in the editing process and I really like all of these images.

Naz + Mohammed – Cape Town Wedding

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to photograph my first Muslim wedding as a second-shooter for Alan Browne. Naz and Mohammed’s beautiful wedding was a feast of family, friends and colour.

Tamryn + Rupert – Monkey Valley Wedding

Nick — Wed, 25 May 2011 07:00:51 +0000

Rainy weather couldn’t put a damper on the festive wedding of Tamryn and Rupert, held at Monkey Valley in Noordhoek. In fact the rain just made the whole affair cosier and more intimate. Another wedding as second shooter for Mitch from I Do Photography.
