Ok, we might be biased but we think Cape Town is the ultimate destination wedding location.

Ok, we might be biased but we think Cape Town is the ultimate destination wedding location. Although we are based in Melbourne, Australia we love nothing more than visiting Cape Town. Storm is South African-born and loves any excuse to go back home to visit friends and Family. Xave is also a big big fan so we have decided we can combine our two loves, shooting weddings and visiting Cape Town. Gotta love that duel – citizenship baby!

Starting in 2026, we’re thrilled to announce that we’ll be offering our photography and videography services in South Africa for a few weeks each year. So holla if you’re considering a unique destination wedding. We couldn’t be more excited to capture your special moments in a place so close to our hearts.
