{wedding} Cheree & Mitchell ~ Sydney & Cape Town

I get a few wedding inquiries. And even though I do get to shoot all over the world, I try not to get my hopes up. Plans change and weddings get cancelled. And for me it’s sometimes as exciting shooting in my own back yard. When I received Cheree and Mitchell’s inquiry about shooting their wedding, I reacted the way I normally do. I didn’t want to get my hopes up. Not only were they planning on having their reception at the Sydney Opera House, they also planned to have TWO weddings, the second one in Cape Town, South Africa, two weeks after the first one. I would have jumped at either one.

Well, they went through with it and I flew to Sydney to shoot their first wedding. And the same thing happened as always happens, I started shooting and time and place became irrelevant. I was shooting a beautiful love story, just look at the way Cheree and Mitchell look at each other, look at the way their families share those precious days with them. It wouldn’t have mattered where they got married. Not with love like that. It was interesting to see Cheree’s South African family share their joy with her and Mitchell in Cape Town, how much more at ease they were with their close friends around. Mitchell’s Maltese family shared the Sydney part of the wedding with them, but in many ways I wonder what it would have been like if the first part of the wedding would have taken place in Malta instead, Sydney the obvious middle ground, a mix of their two cultures. But home is always home. But saying that I know it wouldn’t have mattered. Look at Cheree looking at Mitchell. Look at him looking at her. Both in Sydney and in Cape Town. It wouldn’t have mattered where in the world they got married. They were already home.

Levi - Dina bilder är lika inspirerande som vanligt! Jag kommer ihåg första gången jag hittade till dig och dina bilder. Det var via Flickr, och det var i samband med att jag återupptog min egen fotografering efter ett års uppehåll. Jag var fullständigt fascinerad av dina berättelser, ditt enkla och raka sätt att fotografera och din förmåga att fånga känslor. Dina historier fick mig att ligga vaken under natten, tänkandes på dina berättelser och kännandes de känslor som du förmedlade via dina bilder.

Tidigare har jag endast fotograferat natur och landskap, men du har inspirerat mig att börja fotografera människor. Du har inspirerat mig till att försöka berätta en berättelse och att försöka dela med mig av känslor med mina bilder.

Tack!

Någon gång i framtiden kommer jag att berätta den här historien för dig igen. Jag kommer att upprepa den här historien för dig när jag ber dig att fotografera mitt eget bröllop. När jag ber dig att föreviga min och min flickväns kärlek till varandra. Jag hoppas att du kan befinna dig på plats, vart det än är, för att göra det. Då, någon gång i framtiden.

/Levi

Chris - Smudged Photo - You know what I love the most about your photography Jonas, is that no matter what a story is told. An image could be a little soft, or out of focus (rarely) but you still capture the moment every time. It’s something I hope to emulate myself, I’m too harsh on my exposures sometimes thinking that if it’s not crystal clear and sharp then it’s no good.

When Chris and Jesper contacted me about shooting their elopement on Gozo, an island off Malta in the Mediterranean,  it was only supposed to be them. He’s Danish, she’s French. Apart from witnesses I would be the only outsider there. Over the year that followed things changed slightly. Though we’d never met, we became friends. So when Jesper and Chris decided they wanted their friends there to celebrate their day, they also graciously invited my family. So on a beautiful day in July, only ten days after my own wedding, Jacqui, Noah, Joel and I joined Jesper, Chris and their five friends for the smallest and sweetest wedding I’ve been a part of to date. Every now and then I get to experience something that changes the way I look at love, the reasons I do what I do.

This was one of those days.

September 18, 2012 - 11:57 am

Josie - I love small and intimate weddings! They just have a sense of genuine love and happiness that can get lost in a big, formal do. You’ve really given this couple their own voice and that, to me, is what makes it exceptional.

September 18, 2012 - 12:28 pm

September 18, 2012 - 4:02 pm

Andy - Love the whole shoot! But one stand-out for me is your son wrapped in the orange towel. Being the father of a similar aged boy I can really relate to that shot!

September 18, 2012 - 4:41 pm

Girish - “Every now and then I get to experience something that changes the way I look at love, the reasons I do what I do.” – Couldn’t say it better.

Fantastic pictures. What I really like about your pictures is one can actually relate to the emotions, moments and smiles and tears. It’s not posed, it’s not fake it’s as it is, the real thing.

Truly inspiring work.

The photogrpahs during/after the vows – fabulous.

You should “Take a bow :)”

September 18, 2012 - 6:23 pm

Casey - Amazing!!!! Inspiring! Beautiful!

September 18, 2012 - 7:10 pm

Liezel - i am speachless! that doesnt happen often…WOW!!

September 18, 2012 - 7:21 pm

katty orell - Still dont get how you are not the best wedding photographer every year. Your weddings always bring out what a wedding is (union of love), not a massive expensive party. This one is just out of this world! True love and happines in each picture. A true record of feelings and emotions, captured for eternity!

September 18, 2012 - 7:30 pm

kelly gilbert - OMG! Truly took my breath away….love the song too!

Amazing love story. Your perception of reality is very genuine and simple. You obviously shoot with your heart.

September 18, 2012 - 8:05 pm

Annette - Ya good. These are great.

September 18, 2012 - 8:21 pm

Darryn - That shot of the tear falling – wow!

September 18, 2012 - 8:32 pm

Sara - The peek around the corner photo is brilliant, and I laughed when I saw the bride between the two men in cloths. Amazing!

September 18, 2012 - 9:07 pm

Raven - I was one of the privileged friends that witnessed this event and it’s so valuable to be able to live it all through again with these pictures. Thanks!

September 19, 2012 - 12:18 am

Morten - Beutiful. Your images looks very filmish. Are you shooting film?

September 19, 2012 - 12:23 am

Jesper - Groom signing in :-) – we were and are honoured to have had you spy on us throughout our wedding-day, and to get to know you enough to call you a friend. The same goes for your amazing little family Jacqui, Noah, and Joel.

We loved having you there and that you all took an active part in the wedding in a way we never imagined. You added a big part to the magic. That also makes it very strange to not see you anywhere in the images; a discrepancy with our recollection of it.

I never really liked having my picture taken much and I was a bit wary of how having you snipe us all day would turn out; here I must admit to your great credit that it was the easiest and most natural thing in the world, because of the way you conduct yourself and your camera-wielding. Big kudos.

Lastly, thank you for your kind words, which mean a lot coming from you with so many great weddings under your belt.

lots of love to all of you

September 19, 2012 - 1:04 am

Jarg Woldhuis - wow, what an enormous happy beautiful bride! Fun to look at. Nice atmosphere too!

September 19, 2012 - 8:58 am

Paul Keppel - Wonderful photos. What is going on with cutting of the ends of the socks??? haha

September 19, 2012 - 9:28 am

Lea - Sublime photos. The most joyful bride on the planet. That first look through the arch – what a moment – and as lots of others have mentioned, the tear photo is out-of-this-world. I love how this couple embraces each other like it’s their last moment on earth. What a blessed couple to have you there to capture their magical day – you know you’ve done well when strangers get choked up looking at photos of a couple they don’t even know. Bravo!

September 19, 2012 - 11:41 am

Dan O'Day - beautiful, brosef

September 19, 2012 - 12:03 pm

September 19, 2012 - 5:52 pm

Chris - aka The bride - to all of you who commented:
Thank you so much for your kind words.

to Jonas, Jacqui, Noah and Joel:
I love you.

Our wedding day was the most incredible and beautiful day of our lives, we had a great time and felt (and still do) incredibly lucky to have the honor to be surrounded by the people we love most, may it be old or new love.
Jesper and I love each other this way on an every day basis, we jump and goof around, hug, laugh and kiss a lot every day. It is who we are and what we do (although I may have smiled and giggled a tinsy bit more than unsual on W-day… who knows…) but anyway, this is who we are and we are so unbelievably lucky that Jonas captured “us” so perfectly in the way we are but especially in the way we love. For that, we will be eternally grateful.

September 19, 2012 - 5:56 pm

Chelsea Parsons - very beautiful Jonas

September 19, 2012 - 7:38 pm

September 20, 2012 - 10:39 am

shannon - I think all of your weddings are beautiful stories told through your eyes, but this one is different to me. I feel like it’s all told through their eyes and you just happened to be there to spy on it. The amount of love between them is inspiring. Beautiful and moving work as always Jonas.

September 20, 2012 - 9:49 pm

Jakub - Seriously awesome photography dude!

September 21, 2012 - 1:14 am

morenica - This is too much. This is too good to be true, this wedding, this love and these people. But if it is all true, let it be forever. I can tell that Chris & Jespes is the sweetest couple that exists. And you Jonas…I have never have enough words for you, thanks for sharing this love!

September 21, 2012 - 2:09 am

Louise Johansson - Wow! Stunning work! Absolutely love your work!

September 21, 2012 - 3:42 am

September 21, 2012 - 10:07 am

Steve Gerrard - I’m just glancing through another wedding blog, but, as I do, I find myself smiling, laughing and catching my breath with the emotion captured in the images. This is what we wedding photographers aspire to. Kudos.

September 21, 2012 - 10:22 pm

September 23, 2012 - 1:50 am

Christin - I just stumbled upon your site while searching Google for horse photography. I love your horse pictures – they’re stunning. But I have to say, these wedding pictures are out of this world! The pictures require no words, such a beautiful is told with them. They had me in happy tears of joy for these two who are so clearly madly in love with each other. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen such joy captured in wedding photos before. Very touching. I’m in awe. And I really truly mean that. :D

September 23, 2012 - 2:30 am

Anna - Troligen de vackraste foton jag sett av alla de bröllop du fotograferat. Magiska.

September 23, 2012 - 8:55 am

Gold Hat Photography - I absolutely love the photo of the bride peering around the wall and the groom’s cheeky expression! Their personality comes through and I feel like I know them!

September 23, 2012 - 9:23 am

Johny - One of the best wedding photo’s I have seen.. It tells the story.
I felt like i was their,simply stunning..

Lovisa - Hej Jonas!

Jag studerar statsvetenskap och ekonomi i Linköping. Det är inte så hemskt roligt och jag tror inte att jag kommer att jobba med något inom det. Men jag är inte så stressad här och jag har fina och spännande vänner. Istället för att bli orolig över mitt liv eller ivrig på att flyga iväg har jag skapat mig en liten atelje i mitt korridorsrum. Här lyssnar jag på Wake me, leker med photoshop, slipar på min blogg, tittar på dina foton, försöker lära mig mer, blir inspirerad. Jag är trots allt bara 22 år. Men inom två år vill jag göra något annat. Den dagen kommer! Det vet jag :)

Två frågor från mig nu. Först, hur du lägger in ett musikklipp sådär tjusigt i början av varje inlägg? Dessutom, om du får tid över, så vore jag så hemskt tacksam över om du skulle kunna tänka dig att berätta hur du har arbetat tidigare? Plugg osv. Kanske att man kan få något tips!

tack och ha det jättefint nu!

September 23, 2012 - 10:42 pm

Mary - Jonus, just magical. That teardrop – Amazing.

September 24, 2012 - 1:52 am

September 24, 2012 - 8:02 pm

Camilla - Lika fantastiska bilder som alltid. Jag har nog aldrig sett en så lycklig brud! Man blir liksom varm i hjärtat när man ser bilderna. Detta trots att jag inte har någon relation till objekten överhuvudtaget. Men det är väl det som är skillnaden mellan en proffsfotograf och en amatör. Ett proffs vet exakt hur han eller hon ska ta bilderna för att beröra.

September 25, 2012 - 1:48 pm

Wedding Photography Perth - Theres so much emotion in all your images Jonas. I love your storytelling! :)

September 25, 2012 - 3:57 pm

Mikey - Hey Jonas, I think this is my favorite weddings you’ve captured. It is simply beautiful & emotive. Thank you for sharing.

September 25, 2012 - 5:30 pm

lisa - Tänker på hur du gått från en blogg som fick mig att skratta tills jag grät, till bilder som berör till tårar. Det här är absolut de vackraste bröllopsbilder jag sett! Tack för att du delar med dig av ditt arbete, det är otroligt inspirerande att se så många fångade ögonblick av lycka och kärlek. You rock! :)

October 17, 2012 - 5:55 pm

Roger - Hey Jonas, fantastiska bilder i vanlig ordning. En av de bilder som sticker ut är helt klart “krogsgaard219″ där du lyckats fånga tåren när den lämnar kinden… Otroligt!
Bra jobbat ännu en gång!

Hälsningar från Sverige!

October 18, 2012 - 2:51 am
