Shiv & Isabella || Luxurious Hindu wedding in the Winelands of South Africa

As a photographer I have the privilege of documenting some truly remarkable events. Recently, I had the opportunity to capture Shiv & Isabella's dream multiple day Hindu wedding, planned and coordinated by the talented Kraak team. Kraak is known for curating and designing bespoke events on a whole different level. Working Hannes and his team from Kraak was a fantastic experience. Their attention to detail and commitment to creating personalized, unforgettable events made my job as a photographer an absolute joy. Every moment, from the heartfelt rituals to the spontaneous laughter shared among guests, was beautifully orchestrated and a pleasure to capture.

The couple chose to host their events at some of the Winelands' finest venues including: Dylan Lewis Sculpture Garden, MolenVliet Vineyards, Waterford Estate, Johannesdal and Plaisir de Merle Wine Estate.

The venues' serene landscapes and elegant architecture provided perfect backdrops for this vibrant celebration. The colors and intricate details of the different wedding events were a feast for the eyes and my camera lens.

Being part of this wedding was a privilege as always and having the honor to capture Shiv & Isabella and their loved brought a lot of joy to my heart.
