We’re Werner & Mariaan & we’ve been photographing couples, elopements & weddings since 2009. We call Cape Town, South Africa home ( well, for most of the time ) the rest of the time we travel around the world documenting tales of people doing life together.
Raw & real love stories make our hearts race. We love when people love more & love fully. We cherish hands & holding & passion. We care deeply for people & their stories on life. If this is how you feel too, we’re probably kindred spirits.
As a married couple, our hearts believe in union & soul mates. Our work as creatives is a result of the people we got to meet & the places we’ve been. We’re humbled by the authentic projects we get to do & nothing gives us more joy than creating something timeless.
For us, it’s more about how things feel… & we want the time we spent together creating something unscripted to be an abundant experience of emotions. We tell stories with care & we honestly feel lucky to be doing what we’re doing. We embrace a natural light, documentary & cinematic style of work. We constantly feel humbled by the opportunities to do our work in some of the most beautiful sunrises & sunsets all around the world.
It’s the moments spent with the ones we love most that live in our hearts forever. Life is a journey and every season should be documented & celebrated. We want our work to serve as a subtle reminder of YOUR life. Maybe you’ll print ‘em to put it in a frame or keep in your wallet… however you choose to use it, what we created for you will always be there.
