South African Wedding Photographer 

Hi, I’m Kobus — a South African wedding photographer based in Cape Town.

I’ve photographed more than 450 weddings across the Western Cape, the Cape Winelands, Franschhoek, Stellenbosch, the Overberg, the Garden Route and throughout South Africa. I’ve also had the privilege of photographing destination weddings abroad.

But the most important thing you should know is this:

What I’m Like on a Wedding Day

The Calm, Relaxed Presence

I’m the calm, relaxed presence on your wedding day — the photographer who keeps things running smoothly, helps you breathe, and makes the whole experience feel easy.

My couples always tell me the same thing:
“You made us feel so comfortable — it felt like spending time with a friend.”

How I Work

I’m not loud. I’m not stiff. I’m not the photographer who takes over the day.
I’m the one who:

  • Keeps you calm

  • Makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera

  • Helps guide things naturally without forcing anything

  • Keeps everyone relaxed

  • Notices the moments you don’t even realise are happening

  • Helps things run on time without you feeling rushed

  • Brings a warm, down-to-earth personality that puts people at ease

My Approach to Photography

I blend natural, documentary storytelling with simple guidance so you always look relaxed, confident and real. No stiff posing. No awkwardness. No pressure.

Your photos will feel:

  • Timeless

  • Elegant

  • Honest

  • Filled with emotion

  • And true to who you are

My goal is never just to take pretty pictures.
My goal is to capture what your day felt like.

Why This Matters to Me

In 2024, I lost my dad — a moment that changed the way I see weddings forever.
It made me far more intentional about capturing:

  • Parents

  • Grandparents

  • Relationships

  • Quiet, emotional moments

These images become priceless as life moves on.

Where I Work

As a South African wedding photographer, I document weddings:

  • In Cape Town

  • Across the Western Cape

  • The Cape Winelands, Stellenbosch & Franschhoek

  • The Overberg & Garden Route

  • Throughout South Africa

  • And for destination weddings abroad

Wherever your story takes place, I bring the same calm, warm energy and refined photographic style.

What You Can Expect

Whether your celebration is intimate or grand, here’s what you get with me:

  • A calm, down-to-earth photographer

  • Someone who supports you throughout the day

  • Natural guidance so you look relaxed and confident

  • Timeless photos and films with real emotion

  • A genuinely enjoyable experience from start to finish

I care about beautiful images — but I also care about how you feel in the moments they’re created.

If you’re looking for a South African wedding photographer who keeps things relaxed, captures real emotion, and delivers timeless photos and films, I’d love to hear your story.
