Kabelo and Marion got married at Avianto in Muldersdirft.
There are so many nooks and crannies on this vast property with its stunning gardens and European village themed architecture that you’ll really have to try very hard if you want to take ugly wedding photos ;-)
Kabelo and Marion also opted to have the bulk of their bride and groom wedding photos to be taken before their wedding ceremony. This helps a lot in terms of time, but I must admit that I’m a hopeless romantic and still prefer it when a groom sees his bride to be for the first time as she enters the church.
Marion and Kabelo did not have their wedding ceremony in the chapel. They had a videographer as well. This guy had these huge garage lights in the back and in front of the room, which in some instances helped. Most of the time however it was a pain in the backside because we had to move around and angle shots so as not to have glare or overexposed light spots in the frame.
My husband always stay behind the couple when they walk out towards the guests after the ceremony to capture the confetti throwing from behind, while I wait outside to get them from the front.
It was very dark in the reception hall as the videographer only switched his lights on when he needed them and there was very little other light. It does create a ultra-romantic atmosphere, but it sure makes it difficult for us photographers to get the shots.
But what do “they” say – practise makes perfect…
