As documentary photographers, we're drawn to places that tell their own stories. These venues across Cape Town and beyond have made us realise how lucky we are to photograph weddings, each offering unique moments and spaces for authentic wedding photography.
Dorp Hotel
In the heart of Bo Kaap, Dorp Hotel is a curator's dream. Every corner tells a story through carefully chosen art and thoughtful details. The character of this space provides an endless canvas for documentary photography, while city and mountain views remind you you're in the heart of Cape Town. It's where old meets new, and every wedding unfolds differently against its artistic backdrop. View Lara & Darren’s Dorp Hotel wedding
The Family Home
There's something magical about documenting weddings in family homes. The familiar spaces bring an unmatched level of comfort and authenticity to celebrations. We find that everything becomes more relaxed, more genuine. It's where we often capture our most candid, heartfelt moments - when everyone truly feels at home. View Tammy & Henry’s Home Wedding
Glen Dirk Estate
Nestled in the suburbs of Cape Town, Glen Dirk Estate feels like discovering a secret garden. What draws us here time and again is its natural, home-like atmosphere. There's an intimate quality to this historic Cape Dutch estate that makes every wedding feel private and personal, despite being minutes from the city. The way light plays through the ancient trees creates those unplanned moments we live to document. View Mira & William's Glen Dirk Estate wedding
Babylonstoren
The gardens of Babylonstoren are a living, breathing part of every wedding here. We love how the seasons write their own story through the changing gardens, while the professional service ensures everything flows seamlessly. As documentary photographers, we find endless inspiration in the way couples naturally interact with this historic farm's stunning spaces. View Marcus & Thando's Babylonstoren wedding
Emily Moon
Some venues are all about the views, and Emily Moon delivers this in spades. The natural beauty here creates an organic backdrop that needs no embellishment. We love how the landscape becomes part of each couple's story, offering countless opportunities for authentic moments against a stunning canvas. View Jake & Emily’s wedding at Emily Moon.
Johannesdal
The gardens at Johannesdal have a way of embracing every celebration. What captures our lens repeatedly is the reception space, where dramatic views create an ever-changing backdrop throughout the day.
