Remember Jacqui and Richard’s wedding at Usambara in May?  Well, I got this email from Jacqui today…

Thank you, thank you, thank you, what an amazing day and what an amazing Photographer! Everyone always says that if you are going to spend any money on a wedding it’s got to be on your wedding photos, because after the party is over and everyone goes home that is all that is left, and thanks to you Jeanette our memories are so beautiful and we could not have asked for more! You took the most beautiful photos of even random moments when no one was looking. People have said to me that your photos make them feel like they were there as you captured such wonderful expressions and moments in time, and it is true, every time I look at them I am taken back to the happiest day of my life. You were so professional and wonderful to have around, you never made anyone feel uncomfortable and people enjoyed having you around, so much so that every time someone mentions the fact they need a photographer your name is fondly mentioned and only the highest compliments are made.

So once again, thank you for your beautiful photos, you have such a talent even when the odds are stacked against you i.e. miserable rainy weather you made it seem like it was a beautiful sunny day. Talent like that does not come around very often and I count myself very lucky that I had you there that day otherwise I have no idea how my photos might have come out! I wish you all the luck with your future clients and would love for you to use me as a reference.

Jacqui & Richard Swanepoel

Emails like this make me smile.  I LOVE that they LOVE their photos!! It was a very special moment in their lives, and I’m glad they like the memories that the photos evoke.

And of course, what’s a post on my blog without a photo… one of my favourites from their wedding…
