No one enjoys a Monday morning,  the day begins with most people  still trying to
get out of weekend mode and into work mode…however we here at Jean Paul Photography had an early start to our Monday morning.

Saprotex/ Elle yarns were ready and geared up for their Spring and Summer Range photo shoot. We met the design team and models bright and early at Floradale Nursery to begin with the shoot for their new and exciting  range.

The venue for the shoot was Floradale Nursery, the location being in a league of its own. This family run business  is well established  in both East London and Port Elizabeth. The owners were very generous, as they allowed us to make use of the entire venue for the photo shoot. This was fantastic, as there are gardens growing all over the place and we wanted to make sure the photographs reflected a lifestyle look but also had a variety of  backgrounds.

Floradale is alive with all sorts of little critters buzzing around and lush gardens everywhere, a clear indication that Summer is on the way. With all kinds of plants, greenery and beautiful flowers growing wildly in some places and neatly  in others, this venue is definitely going to be  busy during the Summer months. Why not pop onto their website http://www.floradale.co.za/eastlondon-nursery.html ,and plan a day with the family at Floradale Nursery,  this is a great way to spend a Saturday morning.

The patterns photographed in the lifestyle shoot can be found in various magazines, such as the: YOU Magazine or Sarie. All in all the shoot ran smoothly and was a great success. The outcome can be seen in the gallery below

Last year Jean Paul Photography had an opportunity to photograph a traditional Indian wedding.

The wedding was held at the ICC Convention Centre and both the reception and ceremony were absolutely beautiful. The colours and detail stood out and the couple, Jyoti and Prinellen were adorned  in the most elegant and beautiful garments . 

However words cannot describe how exquisite this event was ; have a look below at some of the beautiful memories captured at this traditional wedding.

Recently, we here at Jean Paul Photography were given an opportunity to photograph a shoot for True Love Magazine. The spread which appears in the May 2011 No387 issue, is an article which has been run in several previous magazines, on couples who have “made it”. Mxolisi and Nonyameko are a couple from the Eastern Cape, they are high school sweet hearts who met at a beauty pageant and 17 years later are still together. It sounds like a setting for a romantic comedy, yet this couple are all that and more.

Throughout the shoot you could not doubt their love for each other, with their loving gazes and playfulness, Nonyameko and Mxolisi  were a lot of fun to work with. Eager to strike poses and willing to have fun, this was definitely one of those shoots where you feel you’ve captured great photos because the “models” were eager and enthusiastic.

Have a look through our gallery at the special memories caught on camera of this special couple and  take a glimpse at their article published in the True Love Magazine.
