Shelly and Gareth's Engagement Shoot | Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens


In 2015 we met this gorgeous lady named Shelly at our bridal boutique Vanilla Lace, Shelly was looking for a perfect wedding dress to wed her handsome hubby.

Shelly found a gorgeous gown at our store, and like most clients, she soon learned that we do full packages with our photography and makeup and hair.

We soon found out that Shelly decided to share her entire experience with us...and what an amazing experience it has been so far. Shelly told us that her and Gareth really wanted to do an engagement shoot with us. As with most clients, us guys are weary of cameras, and engagement shoots truly ease up the feeling for couples.

We spent the afternoon at Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens in Ruimsig capturing their engagement shoot. It's quite obvious that this is probably the fittest couple you have seen. Gareth is a really tall guy, but in all honesty, we found him to be a humble gentle giant, and he treats his gorgeous Shelly the same way.

Shelly will be competing in her fitness bikini competition later this month, soon after they will be tying the knot.

Take a sneak peek at this awesome couples engagement shoot.

Shelly and Gareth, thank you for being so awesome, and good luck on stage later this month, we know you will rock it!
