I arrived a bit early at Silvermist to check out the location and was told by the security guard to mind out for snakes. “Last week they found a king cobra right by reception and there are some other big guys around – watch your step!” Just what you want to hear when you're going to go cruising around to find spots to shoot. On your own. With semi-open shoes.

In case you're wondering, in addition to not really loving cows up close, snakes are not really a firm favourite of mine. What can I say? I'm a Sandton girl at heart.

Anyway, the cloak of snake-fear quickly vanished as I witnessed how truly beautiful the connection between Nic and Janet is and how much they absolutely adore each other.  It doesn't hurt to photograph a gorgeous couple either and it's a real bonus when the groom has mastered his 'blue steel' look! A few images for today:
