A Photographer on your honeymoon?

Honeymoon photography is becoming the latest trend. It might sound rather strange – taking a photographer on honeymoon with you but it’s actually one of the best decisions you could make in your relationship.

Even unmarried couples are investing in photo shoots, to capture those beautiful moments in their relationship. It actually is an investment – looking back at those photos allow you to relive those moments, keeping the memories and passion alive.

Perhaps the only downside is the cost involved, as the photographer will have to travel and be accommodated by you. But it is worth it for the lifetime of moments captured from a time that cannot be replicated. A couple is perhaps the most happy on their honeymoon, and the candid shots captured then could even rival the wedding shots.

Having a photographer with you, tailing along inconspicuously, takes the stress off you to capture photos yourselves. Everything will be documented without you even knowing it and those are the truest, most beautiful shots.

From 2013, taking bookings for 2014- Lee Folkard Photography will be offering this service. 
Let us see if South Africa is ready for this line of photography. 

“Time’s Winged Chariot”

“But at my back I always hear

Time’s winged chariot drawing near”

-       Andrew Marvell, To His Coy Mistress

Time will always be the uncontrollable factor of man’s life; it is one of the only things that can liberate us and imprison us.

The nature of time is almost like a butterfly landing in the palm of your hand, if you’ve ever given it a chance to; you blink and as suddenly as it landed, it takes flight once again leaving you to wonder if it had ever been there at all.

Andrew Marvell coaxed his mistress with the thought that time is passing them by and they needed to make the most of their time together; they needed to make love before their youth became their past. Life is seducing us to have our love-affair with it; waiting for us to grab the chance to live like today is all we have.

In life, all you have is the moment. Once the moment passes by, it becomes a memory only alive to you in your mind. Memories of the same event exist differently in different peoples’ minds, but the moment is the same for everyone experiencing it. All you have is that moment before it passes by, before the butterfly takes flight once again.

But sometimes, that moment is all you really need.
