Azania & Bafana | Engagement Session |Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens
Lots of times engagement sessions serve as the ice breaker, lets you get acquainted with the couple, But sometimes it just serves as a good ol time hanging out with two new friends and that is exactly what this felt like. There was no ice to break, not kinks to work out because we all just meshed perfectly, we really were just hanging out and making photos. Here are a few of my favorites from Azania & Bafana’s engagement session.
Moses and Mbali are one heck of a cute couple. We all came together at Maboneng Precinct for this specific engagement shoot. We love to shoot at JHB CBD because it is what I like to call an inception location. You get one giant lush park with tons of smaller, more intimate places to take photos. There are locations inside of locations. Inception. With its beginnings in art, Maboneng has evolved into a collaborative hub of culture, business and lifestyle that entices curiosity, encourages exploration and promotes a sense of urban togetherness. They both enjoy photography and have a great eye together so it was a huge pleasure and ease to shoot the two of them. We will update the blog very soon with photos from their actual wedding.
