WEDDING & LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHY
We are an East Pretoria-based duo and are happy to travel anywhere a client needs us. We are also affiliated with Bruidsgids & Wedding Guide, and we are proud to say that our photos will be published in Afrikaans version of the magazine for 2025.​
​
As photographers, we believe in storytelling and capturing all the big moments that bond people. Our approach to photography is as unique as your love story. We're not interested in creating a carbon copy of every other wedding album out there. We want to tell your story, the way it deserves to be told – with all the quirks, laughter, and heartfelt moments that make it one-of-a-kind.​
​
So, expect the unexpected from us. We're here to capture those beautifully off-beat moments that define your love.

​
Because ORDINARY is not YOUR STYLE!
Whether it's the spontaneous dance in the rain, the uncontrollable laughter during your vows, or that impromptu hug from a loved one, we're ready to click and freeze these memories in time.

AUTHENTICITY OVER PERFECTION
​
When it comes to our photo sessions, it's not just about capturing your best angles; it's about ensuring you look good, feel great, and have a blast while doing it.
​
By choosing to work with me, you're not just investing in a photographer; you're investing in a partner who will stand by your side. I'm here to guide you, calm those pre-shoot nerves, ease any stressors, and yes, even crack some truly terrible jokes that might just embarrass me more than they make you laugh. But hey, genuine laughter makes for the best photos, right?
"Roger and I can't thank you enough for these amazing photos Ella, you've captured every emotion of our weddings with minimal direction. You and Chane are the best in town!"

Hi I'm
ELLA
THE PERSON BEHIND THE LENS
I am here to tell your story. I am all about capturing spontaneous gestures, touches, laughter, tears. Everything that life is about.
I believe in understated elegance, unexpected moments, and timeless memories. Trends come and go, and overly stylized images can quickly become dated. I capture the feeling of each particular wedding day in an honest, non-choreographed way. I hope that my photographs hold their power in forever.
