Table Mountain Engagement Shoot

Igor & Thaina are from Brazil. They were neighbours and they’ve known each other since they were 9 years old. It was definitely not love at first sight. It took Igor 2 years to convince her to go out with him. He calls her sugar in Portuguese so when he was away on a student exchange program - he finally broke her down by sending her 2 packets of sugar and a note.

Fast forward 9 years to their South African adventure. Not long into the shoot - Thaina casually mentions she has a bet on with Igor. If we snag a couples photo with a sun halo - then he has to propose! Luckily for me - Igor had already told me that he planned to propose in the Kruger a few days later so not too much pressure. These two were just a bundle of fun and we had the most magical sunset on Table Mountain combined with yummy chocolate cookies (my kinda people!!). We had crazy heat in Bo-Kaap and then crazy wind on the mountain which added that extra touch of Beyonce drama to Thaina’s hair. :)
