Lillian & Tonderai’s Wedding, Johannesburg, South Africa

This wedding was full of excitement and fun. There was a guest list of 500 people, so excitement was running high, there was lots of bustling around while Lillian got ready and once she was dressed, she had an aura around her which created serenity. She moved with such elegance and everyone just stopped and stared. Tonderai was the happiest man when he saw his bride, but the cutest moment was when he got ready for the kiss. He rubbed his hands together, took off his jacket (creating lots of drama) and held his bride as he kissed her. The crowd went NUTS! :) So awesome!

Something happened at this wedding which has never happened to me before. There was a game being played on the dance floor as part of the formalities where someone would put down some money and ask a specific person to dance on their own. If that person refused, they would have to double the money. So … while Gena and I were photographing, all over a sudden, someone requested the photographers to go up and dance – Alone! :) My first inner reaction was to freak out & refuse, but decided life is just too short, so we went on, and danced and had a ball while doing it! So at least I can now add dancing to my list of things I do at a wedding :)

 

Thank you to Gena for shooting with me. Always a pleasure to work with you.
