Jewish Weddings
The Oyster Box {Part 2}
Here is the second installment of Joanne & Jake's Jewish wedding at The Oyster Box in Umhlanga Rocks, South Africa. Looking back at the pictures really does make me homesick. I love South Africa. I miss it a lot. One of my favourite things about shooting Jewish Weddings is that the dancing starts off right from the get go at...
Wedding at The Oyster Box {Part 1}
A wedding at the Oyster Box - Jewish weddings are always full of so much emotion, passion, ceremony and love for family. This was the first This was the first Jewish Wedding that I would photograph in South Africa. Joanne & Jake were married at THE OYSTER BOX HOTEL in Umhlanga Rocks, Kwa-Zulu Natal.

Northbrook Park
Last year I shot a Jewish wedding at NORTHBROOK PARK in Surrey. What I love about this venue is the ability to have an outdoor wedding ceremony with the Huppah positioned in the middle of the guests. The flowers and details where super gorgeous for this wedding. Thanks to Chris Mann who shot this wedding with me. Due to the...
The Savoy {Part 2}
And here we have part two of Leah & Peter's Jewish wedding at The Savoy. I always love the dancing of the hora at Jewish weddings, so much vigor and enthusiasm right from the get go. Now, Peter is in a band and an exceptionally talented guitar player and singer. He surprised Leah and all of the wedding guests by...
The Savoy {Part 1}
Leah & Peter where married at The Savoy hotel in London. The Savoy had a massive refurbish which was completed last year and it is nothing short of spectacular. Jewish wedding ceremony's tend to be much later on in the day and so the couple opted for a FIRST LOOK. This is the fourth time we have done one and...
Manor of Groves {Part 2}
Dancing, dancing and more dancing pretty much epitomises a Jewish Wedding reception and Barri & Emma's at MANOR OF GROVES did not disappoint. "A lively Israeli dance called the Hora is performed at the wedding reception. While they hold on to either end of a handkerchief, bride and groom are lifted into the air on chairs by their joyful guests,...
Manor of Groves {Jewish Wedding}
Jewish weddings are full of tradition and ceremony which we absolutely love. Barri contacted me last year after being referred to us by our photographer friend Marianne Taylor. Marianne knew that we had shot a few Jewish weddings in the past and so we would be a good match for this wedding at The Manor of Groves in Hertfordshire. Jewish...
Jewish Wedding Reception at St George’s Hall
Here is part two of the Jewish Simcha (Wedding) that we shot on the 30th of December up in Liverpool at St George's Hall. I just love the enormous festivities of a Jewish wedding with the traditional Israeli dancing which starts from the beginning of the night and continues intermittently between heartfelt speeches from friends and family. St George's Hall...
Jewish Wedding at Princes Road Synagogue
Ben and Victoria's wedding is the third time we have had the pleasure of shooting a Jewish wedding. I am just astounded at the traditions, ceremony and general upbeat nature of these weddings. There is so much joy and fun being spread around and so many a fantastic opportunities for getting amazing Photojournalistic images! I wanted to share the lovely...
Jewish wedding at Hendal Hall Hotel {Dena and Mark}
When I received this email from Dena earlier this year, I thought it was more than a tad bit ironic that we happen to be South African too... "I am looking for a wedding photographer for my wedding later this year. The photography is for me one of the most important aspects of the day. I have been searching for...
Mazel tov!
As promised in the post below, here are the pictures from the Jewish Wedding Reception held at the Thistle Hotel near Heathrow. The dancing was truly amazing - and a bit scary at times! It took me a few minutes to get really stuck in but in the end I was right in the heart of the action. Mozeltoff! (more…)
