The Anglugs Engagement Shoot

Angel and Neels (Glugster) met me in Newtown early this morning for their much anticipated engagement photoshoot.  I had a ball.  They brought quite a few props along with them so that the photos would tell their story.  And of course Newtown was just perfect for it!

SheBee (9 comments.) - February 3, 2010 - 1:36 pm

oh my word – this is absolutely my favourite photo shoot you’ve ever done Jenty!

The graffiti is phenomenal – they almost *make* the photographs. I especially love the one with Angel and the ribbon in her hair.

Such a gorgeous, gorgeous result.

Keep it up.

Stacy Squires - Christchurch Wedding Photographer (3 comments.) - February 1, 2010 - 10:39 pm

justBcoz (1 comments.) - February 1, 2010 - 5:23 pm

I love these!

My 2 favourites are the large “dancing” shot, where Angel’s kicking up her heel … and the last photo. That one is just divine, full of goosebump-inducing, intense lovingness.

I met up with Dion and Christel at Zoo Lake this morning for their engagement photoshoot (that was a gift from Angel and Neels).  They chose this particular spot as they’ve often gone to the park and to Moyos with their kids, and of course it’s a beautiful spot anyway

The Angel, the Glugster and the Knucklehead

Love between them

Angel’s blog was the first local blog that I started reading when I started blogging 3 years ago, and I’ve been an avid follower of her blog, as well as her profiles on Facebook, Twitter and Flickr, ever since.  I’ve been honoured to get asked by her and Neels (Glugster) to take their wedding photos...

I took photos of some of my family while I was in Hermanus last week.   It was quite strange to take the photos, because it sure wasn’t a planned trip, and I’d sent my cousin an email about two weeks ago recommending a photographer (my cousin lives in the US) for her family photos.  LOL,...
