WEDDING PHOTOS CAPTURED WITH INTENTIONALITY

It’s days like these you’ll wish you could just freeze time! When all the beauty, love & celebration will take years to fully take in…

That’s where I slide onto the scene smoother than a fresh jar of Skippy and translate the essence of your day into tangible heirlooms you can pass down for generations!

The flowers may wilt and your dress be packed away… but your photos will become your very own treasure chest of memories, through which you can relive the special moments and details from this incredible day.

Just imagine every special moment:

  • the excitement of getting ready with your best friends by your side

  • squeeezing your dad’s arm as you walk down the aisle

  • the look in your man’s eyes as he sees you for the first time

  • the glowing sunset on your couple shoot, when it starts to sink in… you’re MARRIED!

  • your first dance as Mr & Mrs

  • the beautiful & unique details of the reception you dreamed up

  • the stolen glances and all of the tears and laughter during the speeches

  • the camaraderie of your friends and family on the dance floor… ayyyy MACARENA! 

What a JOY it’ll be to relive it all!

Couple Shoots aka Adventure Sessions

Ready to have photos of the two of you that weren’t taken on someone’s hazy cellphone camera, but instead in a beautiful location that has significance to you as a couple? — I’ve got you covered ;)

There’s a reason I like to call these my Adventure Sessions. Just the two of you going on a fun adventure  — of which I’ll make forever-art. No awkward poses! Just a good amount of laughs and banter, and only the gentlest of guidance & direction to make you feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera

The possibilities are endless — a hike up the mountains, walk on the beach, a visit to your favourite coffee shop, or just chilling at your home (yes, that too can be an adventure!). It all makes for beautiful photos. I’ve got a list of some favourite locations that you can choose from too if you need some inspiration.

  • You can choose from a 30 minute Mini Session, to 2-3 hour sessions with multiple locations and time for outfit changes. Sessions start at R1,700.

  • You’ll receive your photos via a beautiful online gallery which you can easily share with family & friends.

  • This is the perfect test drive to make sure you’re super comfortable in front of the camera come wedding day, plus these photos will be ideal to use on save-the-dates or invites to your wedding ;)

  • Some of my wedding packages already include a one-hour engagement shoot

What other Glory Pixels couples are saying…

It felt like we had a friend by our side we have known for years!
Our wedding pictures are stunning. Jani captured so much detail- some details which WE didn’t even see on the day! It is like reliving the day... so special!!
Approaching her at our friend’s wedding was one of the best things we have done! ”

— Rebecca & James

“​Jani is the one person who can make you feel comfortable and even make you laugh when you feel a bit tense”

— Rochelle & Rehan

“Jani has a knack for setting up the most beautiful pictures in even the most mundane of settings… what really sets her apart is her funny, easygoing personality. We really appreciated how she was able to put us at ease (and make us super happy and comfortable!) even though we’re actually really camera-shy.”

— Suné & Daniel

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Compatibility to you as a couple:

    One of the most crucial factors to consider is whether the photographer is a good fit for you as a couple. It's essential to ensure they share your values and that you feel comfortable and at ease having them around on your special day. To get a better sense of this, I highly recommend arranging a casual meeting for coffee or setting up a video call to get to know them personally.

    Photographer's style:

    Pay close attention to the photographer's style, as it will shape the way your wedding moments are captured. Consider whether you prefer a more natural and documentary-style approach, with emotion-rich photographs, or if you prefer more formal and posed shots. Additionally, examine the editing style, including the overall look, feel, and use of color. Determine if their style aligns with your vision, whether it's a specific trending style or a timeless and elegant look.

    Client reviews and testimonials:

    It's essential to gain insight into the photographer's professionalism and performance from their previous clients. Don't hesitate to ask the photographer for references or read reviews and testimonials online. Hearing about others' experiences will give you the credibility and confidence you need to make an informed decision.

  • It’s completely normal to feel awkward in front of a camera. The good news is that there really is a way around it — through the correct guidance. Most of my couples tell me after shoots that they were surprised by how comfortable and at ease they felt during the session and that they actually had fun. That’s honestly my main aim for every session :)

    There are many ways to take the pressure off, like looking at each other instead of the camera and encouraging dialogue. I especially love photos where there’s motion, and most of the time I will guide or direct you through various movements. What comes naturally to you, also usually looks the best on your photos. You don’t have to prepare for your shoot in any way - that’s where my job comes in!

  • Yes, I am happy to have payments spread out in smaller instalments. I know that there are lots of things to consider when planning a wedding, so I’ve got your back when it comes to navigating cash flow.

  • I’ve got your back! :) I’ve put together a very handy timeline guide with a breakdown of the “usual” times scheduled for each part of the day — once you know how much time is actually needed to take family photos or how long the ceremony will be it’s so much easier to start planning your day! You can get the guide here.

    I’ll also provide you with useful advice and recommendations over our coffee meeting or video calls throughout our journey together to make your day as stress-free as possible. My aim for your wedding timeline is to flow as naturally as possible and to ensure that you get to spend the maximum amount of time with your guests.

  • I’m based in Sea Point, Cape Town. I love living here right next to the sea and beautiful mountains! BUT as you might have noticed, I’m always keen for a road trip -so you can book me from anywhere ;)

  • I include 150 km travel in my packages, thereafter I charge a travel fee based on AA rates. With plane tickets I’m more than prepared to take the red-eye flight to make the tickets as affordable as possible. I have a deep love for travelling and therefore try to be as accommodating to my couples as possible. If your wedding is in one of my bucket list locations I might also give you a cheeky little discount too!

  • In photography, lighting is key! The best time to do your couple shoot would always be the hour before the sun sets. That warm, soft light during golden hour is the absolute best! I will guide you with the exact times and locations when we start planning our shoot.

  • Photography is my focus. Although I only offer photography services I have worked with and teamed up with some really talented videographers. Should you be interested in a photo & video package let me know and I might just get you a really good deal ;)

  • Yes, I am the biggest fan of photo albums. Read all about it here.

  • Absolutely. I’ve worked with some of the most amazing people in the industry, and I would love to help you find your ideal vendors.

  • YES! I would love to capture the story of your family. Our families constantly grow and change over time and having high quality photos of the people we love most is absolutely priceless. From maternity to extended family shoots - I’m there for it! Send me an email at hello@glorypixels.co.za and we’ll book your shoot.

    With a background in the food and marketing industries, Food and Lifestyle Photography is also a big passion of mine where I serve corporate clients and small businesses.

  • The best way to get in touch is by sending me an email to hello@glorypixels.co.za. I do my best to respond as swiftly as possible, or I’ll set up a call or coffee date where any help may be required.

  • Q: What kind of photos do Lobsters take most?

    A: Shellfies.

Adventure awaits!

It’s worth mentioning that I have a special place in my heart for couples who share in my love for adventure. The celebrations where couples aren’t afraid to stay true to themselves and invite guests into their unique love story are those that really leave me inspired and energised.

Some of my favourite photos have been taken on top of mountains, while adventuring on bicycles through Amsterdam, and in the bountiful breathtaking spaces our beautiful country has to offer.  

Here’s a little collection of some of my favourite moments.

Where to next? :)
