Gareth & Roxanne wanted something outdoor for their engagement shoot, and since they both love horses they wanted a bit of an equestrian theme mixed in too. On arrival Roxanne said “We’ve got plenty of outfits”, I said “Great, we’ll use them all” and I think we just about did. They also produced a guitar and cowboy hats too, so we had plenty of fun. Gareth is a photographer himself amongst other things, so it’s always a big honour to be chosen amongst the thousands of Durban wedding photographers.
The sunset was coming and going as we were shooting, which made it a bit tricky to maintain a perfectly consistent exposure. Gareth & Roxanne were a joy to work with and were game for anything, including lying on their backs in the leaves, walking through long grass and most importantly when I announced that we needed to hurry to catch the light over the hill, they understood completely and we sped around the corner to catch it. Looking forward to the wedding in November!
