Posted in Angela & Dylan with tags Summer Place on April 25, 2009 by michaeltreeLook, I am not sure which of these two gorgeous looking people were actually the easiest to work with – but boy, did we have a great time photographing them!
First, we photographed Dylan and the boys at Melrose Arch and then the lovely bride and bridesmaids at Summerplace. Well, that said, I must admit that this was my first (and hopefully not the last) wedding that I have done at Summerplace – what a great venue!
So much opportunity and wonderful lighting – just so fantastic, that I was reluctant to let go of the bride and groom. Dylan I must make special mention of your positive attitude towards the camera, you were great to work with and I really wish all grooms could play so well in front of the lens.
Enjoy the next three weeks in Thailand! See you soon.

Posted in Angela & Martin on April 18, 2009 by michaeltreeWell, what can I say? With such a lovely bride and such a kind bridegroom – you can just have loads and loads of fun. Angela is a thoroughbred Scot and when they speak you really have to listen closely to hear what they are saying! The accent is so cool. Even Martin got into a kilt for this great occasion- buddy you looked and acted the part , well done!
Hope you have a lovely time in Mauritius.
Kind regards

Posted in Kelley & Stephan on April 11, 2009 by michaeltreeKelley and Stephan met whilst working in the UK. She is originally from the USA and Stephan a “boerseun” from SA. Needless to say, there were family and friends from different parts of the world and we got to meet all these lovely people at the Edeni Private Game Reserve somewhere in the bushes of the Limpopo Provence.
Kelly and Stephan will be settling-in in the USA soon – on one of those romantic snow covered mountain slopes in Denver, Colorado.
Have fun guys! One day when we visit the USA again, we might just pop in to say “Howdy!”
Here are some of the photo’s – enjoy!

Posted in Talia & Coenie on April 4, 2009 by michaeltreeI am amazed at the beautiful venues Johannesburg has to offer couples. Coming from the Cape the sea, mountains and vineyards has a special place in my heart but I must confess the longer I am here the more I fall in love with the surroundings of this city
Talia and Coenie, your venue surpassed my imagination and if I could have stretched out your session for another 2 hours I would have done so without any regret! It was a pleasure photographing the two of you and your bride’s maids and I must also make special mention of your parents. We felt very blessed by the interest and care they showed towards us. Thanks so much, it’s always inspiring to see families so close as you are and it makes every image captured just a little more special.
