From our first excited emails, to the day we finally met, Matt and Po have been an indescribable thrill to know! They contacted me from their home in New York a while back to inquire about doing an engagement shoot while in South Africa on vacation. I cant tell you how much I love showing off our country and it’s beautiful locations to first time visitors, and their eager responses to every mail we sent made it even more exhilarating! When we finally met at the beautiful South Hill Vineyards in Elgin, every expectation I’d had of the day was met and exceeded. These two are just so sweet together, and so engaging and warm to meet. Besides their good looks and personalities working for them, the location, weather and sunset were honestly just showing off! Can you deal with this rich, buttery light we lucked out with? In all honesty, our shoot was over far too soon and Matt and Po, I wish you guys lived closer so I could deliver your pictures over a cup of coffee and hang out with you some more! I do so hope though, that these images will be a wonderful reminder of a truly special time in your lives, and of the run up to your wedding day! Hopefully it wont be too long until our paths cross again, but in the meantime … please enjoy your blog post! I hope you’ll cherish this reminder of your very special holiday in Africa. All my love, Claire xxx
