On Wednesday this coming week I will be jetting off to South Africa to shoot Rose & Martin’s wedding (you can view their engagement shoot here). I CAN’T WAIT!

As if I wasn’t excited enough at the prospect of shooting another wedding at home, I’ve been going through all my travel photo’s from my last trip to South Africa in December and it’s only made it worse. I am literally counting down the days.

Hout Bay is one of my favourite places to lunch when I’m home and in the Cape Town area. Not only can you find fantastic food there, but it is also rich in culture with buskers paying music, people selling gorgeous handmade items, from sculptures to beadwork, and boats coming and going from the docks. It’s the most wonderful place to feel what it is to be South African – and driving there from Cape Town city centre is just breath taking.

On my last visit I had lunch at Lookout Deck. It’s light and airy décor is perfectly matched to it’s dock side setting and it’s a fab place to cool down on a hot day whether you’re sitting enjoying the breeze on the deck or relaxing in the shade indoors. I can highly recommend any type of seafood – it’s all delicious – and once you’re done, do yourself a favour and visit the street vendors on your way out. It’s the perfect time to spoil yourself with something uniquely South African on your walk back to your car.

Another thing to try when visiting Hout Bay is one of the tourist cruises. The boats offer the most stunning view for the bay, offering the perfect perspective for photos. You may even get to see a few seals or dolphins if you’re lucky too!

I hope this little post has brightened your day and got you excited about planning your summer holidays. I will be blogging more from this trip over the coming weeks so don’t forget to come back for more inspiration to chase the sunshine.
