Tanya and Henry's elopement

Since the birth of my son 7 weeks ago I've been laying a bit low in a sleep-deprived coma.. so it was so amazing to head to Franschhoek on a beautiful sunshiny, windless day to photograph Tanya and Henry's elopement in the winelands. They exchanged their vows at the NG Kerk in the presence of the minister, one other friend and myself as a witness - which I guess is probably quite an apt description for what I normally do!

I had a great few hours with them from witnessing them express their commitment to each other, to cruising around the hot streets of Franschhoek much to the entertainment of a bunch of Japanese tourists (who probably took more photos of them than I did!). Despite the harsh midday sun, we got some great shots and it was really cool not to have any time pressures and just mosy around town.
