KATYA AND KIRILL: Wedding Geographic

Her name is Katya Donova. She is the founder and creative soul behind Russian wedding agency called “Wedding Geographic”. She is the wife and mom of two beautiful kids. Katya organised multiple destination weddings for her guests, but never had a chance to celebrate her own somewhere far and beautiful. During her visit to South Africa we decided to celebrate their 4 year wedding anniversary in a real “Wedding Geographic” style. What a privilege to photograph Katya and Kirill. Making other people’s wedding dreams come true here in South Africa is a blessing. Jenya Zhivaleva Photography is a proud representative of Wedding Geographic in SA.

Wedding Geographic

Ее зовут Катя Донова. Катя является основателем, творческой душой свадебного агентства “Wedding Geographic” и мамой двух очаровашек. Она организовала не одну свадьбу для своих гостей, но не было шанса отпраздновать ее собственную где-то далеко и красиво. Во время ee визита в Южную Африку, мы решили отметить четырехлетнюю годовщину свадьбы Кати и Кирилла в формате “Wedding Geographic ”. Одно удовольствие фотографировать ребят в такой красоте. Jenya Zhivaleva Photography с гордостью представляет ЮАР на карте мира агентства свадебных приключений “Wedding Geographic”.

Vanessa and Darryl’s wedding

Wedding photoshoot with beautiful Vanessa and Darryl.

Vanessa is the owner of the Besters’ Bridal Boutique in Knysna, hence the gorgeous dress and shoes, and Darryl is the artist behind Goldsmiths Knysna. It sounds like a match made in heaven.  Wedding rings were designed by the groom as a wedding gift. Their ceremony was special indeed. Lots of smiles, tears and laughter.
