// happiness
The awesome Lindi from Sarie Bruid contacted us recently and told us that our wedding will be featured in the next issue. Happy dances all day long! We didn't think anything could top making the cover-image of the last issue, but having our very own wedding featured is pretty special.
We're super excited :)
These lovely heart and moustache Rosettes were a joint venture between my favouritest 'mate of honour' Maaike Bakker and my awesome brides-maid Elzanne Louw. All the grooms men and all my girls, plus all the moms and dads and grans got to wear one.

// worst blogger award
This is my fourth blog post of the year.
"and... (drumroll please!) the worst-blogger award goes to Maike McNeill!"
:P
So I've been in an ever-changing state of mind that could be described as a mixture of guilt, a little bit of despair and a lot of frustration. In the last few weeks I on numerous occasions considered deleting my blog, I have even made it as far as the "Are you sure you want to delete 'love made me do it' blog" button... but I can't seem to do it.
My biggest frustration is the fact that there just don't seem to be enough hours in my day anymore. Where are the days when all I could think about was blogging about the oh-so-pretty doily bunting flags? When my hours were filled with drooling over pages after pages of inspirational blogs?
I think this is what it feels like to be grown up.
But this week I got an e-mail from the awesome Meg from Apartment Therapy.
She has an awesome new project coming up and for the first time in a long time I had the urge to blog.
I unfortunately can't say too much - I'm not sure how much I can say actually. Mhm.
But for now let's just say it gave me the long-needed and much-appreciated push to start something like a 'project' - oh fun! And thanks Meg :)
So, today's post - which is insanely overdue - celebrates studio spaces.
welovepictures is moving into a brand-new and super-awesome and our very FIRST studio space at the end of this month! HAPPINESS! Today I'm sharing a few of my ideas, dreams and hopes for this awesome space...
More updates to follow soon-soon!

// home is by the sea
As promised... here are a few pictures from our new home by the sea :)
Meet our two naughty brakkies the Beard and Noodle. They are absolutely loving the beach life! :)
how sweet is the 'HOME' mat? I found it at a random Garden Centre in Cape Town for a silly cheapie price!
I love our yellow door... It was black when we moved in and depressed us both so we painted it yellow! :)
And our '17 Maison McNeill' vinyl sticker was a home-warming present by none other than my awesome bff (check her stuff out here!). Lucky me!
This sweet card is by one of my favouritest local superstars Heather Moore // skinny laminx
How sweet is this vase my oulik husband got for me 'and he loved her...'
I think he really does x
I hope you enjoyed my mini tour - unfortunately there's still loads to do!
Be back soon with more :)
Happy weekend!

// hello friends! and sneak peek of our new huisie x
Oh wow - and it's a new year!
Friends --- H-U-G-E apologies for being a non-existent blogger in the last month. I've missed it so! And thank you for all the comments and worried 'are you coming back's :) It reminded me that there is life beyond my own. Our new life since the move has been exciting and new and frustrating and sweet! A bit like a scary rollercoaster ride - exhilirating and fun, but at the same time you want it to stop so you can get off :)
Married life has been especially interesting. Travis and I have ticked off quite a few points on the 'hard things you'll encounter in your marriage' list. Moving in the craziest time of the year, shooting through our first busy and fully booked season, often doing two weddings in a row in different parts of the country, unpacking boxes, fighting about where the sofa should go, living through ten days with the mum-in-law, making new X-mas traditions, crying through final good-bye's to best friends, and then still making time for each other and coming together to go to HIM. It's been very interesting.
I've had an incredible and surprising interest in our new house, including the awesome guys from Design*Sponge, which we're super excited about! Unfortunately it is a real slow-go since we're absolutely swamped with work :( The two rooms that are to be the welovepictures studios are still crammed full of unpacked boxes. I finally unpacked my last summer dress yesterday. I still haven't found my Juicer...But I decided to at least give you all a quick sneak peek of what we've been up to. Luckily Travis has been obsessed with his new iPhone which means loads of pictures from the last month - lucky me! :)
I promise to do a proper tour in the next few weeks - with proper pictures. We're photographers, not iPhotographers :)
much love!

// I heart SA
So I've been dying to do this post, but between all the house hunting and work, I haven't found a gap until now.
A few Sundays back a few of us went to the awesome Kamersvol Geskenke.
Oh. my. hat.
I was completely blown away by the beauty and love that went into the conceptualizing of this event. It was an absolute feast for the eye and my heart was bouncing up and down with joy and delight! Where ever you looked - just prettiness! EVERYWHERE! This was one event that made me so damn 'proudly South African' (excuse the wee bit of corniness), I couldn't wipe the smile off my face for a few days after.
Julie Lim, a Wedding Photographer, who came all the way from America to photograph talented Christine Meintjies's wedding, captured the spirit of Kamersvol Geskenke in her unique and awesomely delightful way... oh my, so pretty!
Be sure to check out Julie's blog as well as The Pretty Blog for more treats!
