Having shot weddings of all shapes and forms all over the world and working alongside the best in the industry I highly value my work and strive to give my couples excellence throughout our journey together. I’ve put in thousands of hours to hone my craft and keep on doing so to capture memorable moments that will last a few lifetimes.

SKILLIE. Jy is ‘n freaking genius. Ek kan hierdie letterlik nog nie verwerk nie, dit is net so real en so mooi!!!! Dis só beautiful, ek kan nie glo hierdie is ek nie, wat ‘n voorreg om saam met jou te kan werk, jy is ‘n kunstenaar.

FAQs

  • I do not only shoot weddings. I am a storyteller and photography is my main medium - I capture the essence of brands to tell their story better - whether that’s through portraits, products or spaces. I also offer Lifestyle shoots. I believe all parts of our lives are special, and especially the love families share with each other.

  • I most certainly do. I don’t approach a wedding book in a conventional way of randomly putting images in a book. I think every little detail through, from the design, all the way to the binding of the books. I want the book to tell the full story, so once again I put in a lot of effort and love. The books are all printed on Italian Fine-Art paper that has been tested with our style of editing and it’s just such a perfect fit.

    You’ll get the option to choose from our wide range of linen covers. If you decide to choose a package that does not include an album, please don’t worry – you can print the album whenever it fits your budget – even if it’s a year after the wedding. The prices of my lovely albums are on the price lists that I’ll send your way once you enquired through the contact form. I believe that images only truly become alive once they’re printed, so if possible, please don’t let your images camp out on a harddrive forever – they’re begging to be printed!

  • I always end up giving between 500-600 unique images. I also give you a black & white option of most of the images. I love telling stories in the truest way possible and I won’t leave out any image that might be special to you or contribute to the story of your wedding day – for this reason I do not offer the option of giving you everything I shot on the day or the raw images.

  • The most important thing is most definitely that you guys enjoy every moment. Don’t stress about the little things. Enjoy becoming husband and wife and enjoy celebrating that epic-ness with your friends and family. The more you are yourselves – the more natural the story will be told. If you’re hopeless romantics or goofballs – we want to capture YOU and YOUR LOVE for each other.

    If you’re coming from abroad, it’s always helpful to make use of a wedding planner/coordinator – please contact me at info@kikitography.com and I’ll kindly send you a list of the best wedding planners in/and around Cape Town that I love to work with.

  • I pour a lot of love into my post-production. I really invest a large amount of time into your wedding images since I truly want to give you a set of timeless images and pieces of art. I deliver the images 12-13 weeks after the wedding (If they’re done before that time, I’ll most certainly let you know!). I always try my best to send you a few shots a week or two after the wedding as a little preview.

  • Yes I do. The least amount of hours I cover in my packages is 10 hours. My philosophy is that you can’t capture a wedding story in less hours than 10. Most of my couples however book the unlimited hours option which is the best for optimal storytelling.

    What is unlimited hours you ask? – It’s simply that – we don’t count any hours of the wedding day – we’re there the entire day to capture the entire day, from start to finish, wherever, whatever, whenever it happens. If however you require our services for less hours than 10, please feel free to contact me, and I can give you more info on hourly rates.

  • I most certainly do. I’ve travelled to a few places around the world (UK, Europe, Australia, USA, Namibia, Zimbabwe, etc) to capture weddings. I’m always keen to travel, so please don’t hesitate to send me an enquiry through the contact form.

  • I am based in the winelands of the Western Cape (Wellington), but I travel for free in a radius of 60km from Wellington. If your location’s travel time will take more than two hours, please remember to add a little extra to your budget for one night’s accommodation at a B&B. If we’re looking at 3-4 hours travel time, please remember to add a little extra to your budget for two night’s accommodation at a B&B. If your wedding is taking place outside of the Western Cape, please remember to budget a bit extra for two flights, a rental car & two night’s accommodation at a B&B.

  • I (Skillie) will be the main shooter at your wedding. If your wedding guest list is more than 100, I reccommend you book a second shooter on top of your package - this is all stipulated in my packages that I’ll send to you. I have a trained team of second shooters that I love to work with - so I’ll always bring a qualified and accomplished shooter with me.

  • You can enquire through the contact me tab on the website. You can also request a Skype meeting there if you’d like to. When you enquire, please tell me a bit of yourselves and your story and the vibe you’re planning for your wedding. If you decide to book – I’ll send you the contract and invoice for the 50% booking fee.

    I do have a 2-month payment plan available for the booking fee if you’re interested. Please note that the booking is only secure once I have received the 50% booking fee along with the contract. Once that’s done you can call me your official wedding storyteller!

  • I take bookings 15-18 months in advance. In high-wedding-season dates get booked up real quick, so be sure to enquire 6-12 months in advance for those popular dates.
