Capturing Love
Hi, I'm Louw! I specialise in capturing love stories through my lens, focusing on weddings and couple photography. Beyond that, I also cover a wide range of events, from family portraits to birthdays, engagements, and lifestyle shoots. Whether it’s a grand celebration or an intimate moment, I’m here to document your special occasions with care and creativity.
Based in Johannesburg, I also travel across Gauteng and beyond, having had the pleasure of working at weddings and events in Pretoria, Hartbeespoort, Muldersdrift, and various other stunning locations throughout South Africa.
My passion lies in preserving your special memories by capturing genuine moments and real emotions. I’ll be there to observe and document the most beautiful aspects of your day, ensuring that each precious moment is remembered forever.

Why Choose Me for Your Wedding?
Every wedding is as unique as the couple it celebrates, and I approach each one with this in mind. I take the time to listen to your needs and expectations to ensure your vision is fully realised. I also enjoy meeting couples in person or via video call before booking to ensure we’re the perfect fit.
My style focuses on capturing candid, unposed moments — about 70-80% of the day — preserving the authentic emotions and real story of your wedding. Through documentary photography, I aim to tell the true essence of your special day.
During the formal couple shoot (if you choose to have one), I’ll provide gentle guidance and helpful prompts to keep you relaxed and at ease in front of the camera. My goal is to capture those special moments where you’re focused on each other and fully present, creating authentic and meaningful photos.
I’ll also capture all the important details, from the cake and table decor to the bride and groom preparations, tailored to your specific requirements. I provide guidance on the optimal times for formal shots, including family and guest group photos, ensuring everything aligns with your vision and preferences.
At a wedding, stories unfold in every corner—emotions ranging from joy and happiness to anxiety, and countless little details. I’m passionate about observing and capturing these moments, ensuring that each aspect of your day is beautifully documented.
Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on camera is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.

When Megan and Robby chose Red Ivory in Harties for their wedding, it was a match made in heaven. As one of my favorite venues, Red Ivory’s blend of rustic charm and elegance provided the perfect setting for Megan and Robby’s special day.

When Tammy and Chris met in 2018, neither could have imagined how their story would evolve over the next five years. Fast forward to their wedding day, and it’s clear that their love has grown stronger and more beautiful with each passing year.
