Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime story — and I’m here to capture it beautifully, from the smallest details to the biggest moments. With years of experience and a genuine passion for wedding photography, I focus on telling the authentic and complete story of your day through timeless, heartfelt images.

I work with professional-grade cameras and lenses, always prepared with backups for every piece of equipment. Every image is recorded to two memory cards in-camera for added peace of mind. Once back in my office, your photos are securely stored on multiple hard drives and in the cloud — protecting your memories against any technical mishap.

Each photograph is carefully edited by me, with meticulous attention to colour, light, and detail. Around one-third will be artistically converted to black and white, but if you have a preference for more (or less), you can let me know when booking.

Your final, high-resolution images will be presented in a private, password-protected online gallery — perfect for sharing with family and friends, wherever they are in the world.

Louw's work is unmatched, our wedding pictures looked very professional and natural.
As a biracial couple having a perfect photographer was very important so as to bring out our different skin types at the same time maintaining our natural looks.

Thank you Louw for helping us create memories through your camera lenses!!!!

“Having Louw there on our special day was an absolute treat and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to capture our memories.”

As a bride, everyone tells you how stressful planning a wedding is—but until you're in it, you never really believe them. Emotions run high, and you end up stressing over things you’d never normally worry about. However, where there is darkness, there is also light, and I was fortunate enough to find Louw.

He was an absolute pleasure to work with, and we really appreciated the excitement he brought to not only our special day and engagement shoot, but the planning leading up to it. His willingness to try new ideas, keep things fresh, and make us feel comfortable was such a gift.

Having Louw there on our special day was an absolute treat and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to capture our memories.

- Mischa & Josh

FAQ

where are you based?

I’m based in Johannesburg but often travel and have photographed weddings all across South Africa. No matter where your celebration is, I’d love to capture it.

How long have you been a photographer?

Since 2020, I’ve had the privilege of documenting over 125 weddings. What I love most is that no two weddings are ever the same, each couple brings their own story, energy, and little moments that make the day unforgettable. My passion is to capture those moments in a way that feels natural, real, and true to you.

hOW & When WILL WE RECEIVE OUR IMAGES?

You will receive your images through a digital online gallery. This gallery will provide you with a link and password, allowing you to download the images in both high resolution and a slightly smaller resolution suitable for social media. Additionally, you can share this gallery link with family and friends if you wish.

You will receive a set of sneak peeks within 2-4 days after your wedding. Your full gallery will be delivered within 6-9 weeks, depending on the season.

hOW do we book you for our wedding?

There is a wedding photography contract to be completed and signed with a 50% reservation retainer payable. The balance is due 1 month before your wedding.

While my primary focus is on weddings and couple photography, I also specialise in a variety of other events and functions. My services include:

Social Events: From birthdays and engagements to anniversaries and themed parties, I capture the special moments of your personal celebrations.
Corporate Functions: Whether it's a large outdoor event or a more intimate business gathering, I provide professional coverage for conferences, seminars, and corporate parties.
