Cape Town is unarguably South Africa’s best city for elopements. There is no shortage of beautiful locations waiting to be used as a backdrop for your special day. Myself and some friends wanted to show everyone why we believe this to be true. So, we all participated in a styled shoot. This is when photographers host a make-believe wedding to get photos in a stress-free space. It helps people image what their wedding or elopement might look like.

The elopement started outside Cape Town’s High court and then moved to Signal Hill. It featured a vintage car, beautiful flowers, gorgeous dresses and a whole lot of fun. We made it look like the models got married in court, jumped into a fancy car and then go up to the mountain for the sunset. I got some beautiful images, and I’ve curated them into a gallery. I took digital image, while Josie captured 35mm film. Below are some of them for you to see.

Elysian was the name of this styled shoot. It describes something that is ideal or perfect. Some people say heavenly.

It was such a special privilege to be part of this shoot and I’m so blessed to be part of the Cape Town Wedding Photographer’s Community . Thank you to all of my friends – may you continue to. help others see that which is elysian and a gift.
