After five years of shooting weddings, I’ve decided to call it a day and concentrate on other projects. It’s been a joyous season which I’ve thoroughly enjoyed and look forward to even more fun as I move on to kissing every corner of Africa with my camera. I was ‘pushed’ into wedding photography by a …

The Olang’s
As far as shooting weddings goes, this was a very special one to me because it was the union of two very good friends whom I’ve known for a very long time. I believe it is Njeri whom I met first, when she hijacked my camera from me when I was shooting an event at …
Ben and Gathoni Kiruthi’s Wedding
Sometime early last year, I received a call from Ben Kiruthi and Gathoni Mwathi. They wanted us to meet and talk. I thought it was going to be a simple chat about work, shooting styles, lens reviews, rate cards and all things photography. Well, it turned out they wanted me to be one of the …
Andrew and Daisy’s Wedding
Andrew and Daisy aren’t new to you. You met them mid last year at their engagement shoot at Nairobi Railway Museum. Remember? About six months later in December, their wedding day arrived and Wamuyu and I were at hand to make sure memories of the glorious day didn’t fade with time.
Larry and Rosa’s Wedding
Last September, on the way back to Nairobi from Bujumbura during the #OnetouchLive road trip, I got an email enquiring if I’ll be available for a wedding in November. I met Larry and his beautiful fiancee Rosa one evening in Nairobi and I got to know what they needed for their wedding day. I made …
Andrew and Tiffany’s Wedding
I’ve been looking forward to post this just as many of us have been looking forward to Christmas. This wedding is similar to Christmas in several ways. Top on the list is that it was full of celebration and good cheer. Weddings are extra special when its two believers getting untied, and when these two …
Rickie and Emmy’s Wedding
I’ve been looking forward to posting this for a while. Before we get to the photos, a little background on these two lovely friends. I met Emmy in 2005 during a Crocodile Racers Easter camping trip to Samburu National Park. Rickie and I had our paths cross shortly after that while I was working at …
Patrick and Teresa’s Military Wedding
There’s a lot to be thankful to God for this season. Lots of favour, love, friendship, business, joy… At the top of the list is being blessed to cover my first ever military wedding. I attended an uncle’s military wedding when I was a katoi and all I can recall is guys were in red. …
Kris and Nyambura Wedding
It’s been a while since I blogged a wedding so this post is special in many ways. First, because it is a come-back post to a photography genre that I love, and secondly, because it’s was my first wedding for 2013. Kris and I were buddies in high school and have managed to keep in …
Andrew and Daisy Engagement Shoot
I got to meet Andrew and Daisy over coffee earlier this year. To get to know them better before their wedding this December, we decided to have an engagement shoot recently at the Railway Museum. Many thanks to Wamuyu Kiragu who helped with the strobing and some of the shots. Please check out her work …
Kash and Patricia
This has got to be one of the most fun weddings I’ve had the privilege of shooting! Kash and Patricia made us so comfortable working with them, we felt like honoured guests at their wedding. And what an honour it was to cover their nuptials. Theirs was also special for me as it was the …
Change and Lydia’s Wedding
I love the way photography has panned out for me in the last two years. Apart from improving in my craft, I am thankful to God for the connections I’ve made. First, with clients who started off as strangers and ended up as friends as family; and photographers too, who started off as competitors then after …
Frank and Nene’s Wedding
This is another Mavuno wedding that I was privileged to cover, this time with the assistance of Mark (@marknduati) and Marcus (@marcusolang), two guys packing some serious photographic talent. Frank and Nene’s wedding was full of joy from start to finish. You could sense it from the air of excitement on the day, and taste it in their …
David and Shiru Post Wedding Shoot
Some wise guy said people come into your life for a reason or a season. For me, David and Shiru are in my life for a very long season – if not life! Our friendship started with a shot I took at David’s proposal and seems to grow with every camera click. Three weeks after their …
The Macharias
From when David proposed to Shiru at All That Jazz December 2011, I knew they were a special couple. It was my first time seeing a public proposal. Upon David’s request, Aaron Rimbui took a break from his keys and before the crowd gathered at Tribe Hotel, David went down on one knee and popped …
Joyce and Jonas’ Wedding
I met Joyce and Jonas about a week to their wedding. All the communication between us for about six months had been on email and telephone. Yet when we met, it was like we’d been meeting every week! Well, as we found out, Joyce and I had met before. She visited this blog when looking …
Hilda and Melvin’s Wedding
Shooting weddings is as much a privilege as it is a responsibility given to you by the couple. For starters, the bride and groom open up their lives and give you unrestricted access on the most important day of their lives, then gently place on your laps you the huge responsibility of capturing the day in a …
Laban and Agnes’ Wedding
The 11th chapter of Hebrews describes faith as ‘Confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see’, followed by a list of men and women of faith. If this list were to be updated, I believe Laban and Agnes would find their names there. It was such a joy being a …
David and Shiru’s Engagement
This is the first engagement shoot I’ve done and wasn’t it fun! My first encounter with this lovely couple was at All That Jazz’s December 2011 show at Tribe Hotel. Aaron and his band stopped play as David got on stage and before the entire audience, proposed to Shiru, who accepted to marry him, much …
Ja Picha’s Wedding
I met Kevin ‘Ja Picha’ Ouma at oneTOUCH, a meeting of photographers and videographers with a common love for Jehova, the giver of our talent. Above this, Ja Picha and I also share a love for bONK tees. He was blessed to get married to his lovely fiancee in April this year and for the …
