Branding shoot for Jacki Bruniquel in Ballito, South Africa by photographer Elizabeth Donnell

Hi. My name is Jacki but you can call me Jax.  I'm a wedding and portrait photographer who loves to teach, travel, salute the sun and swim in the sea. You'll find my home next door to a forest near the beach just north of Durban, South Africa.

Being creative is as important to me as breathing and I would love to share this with you!

If you’re far away from this neck of the woods– we can easily meet on Skype or I can jump on a plane.

Sally & Tom

“Jacki made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera we didn’t even know she was there and the result was that all the emotional, natural and intimate moments were captured”

Sandile & Nadja

“As confirmed by our guests, Jacki’s photographs are more than just photos they are a journey throughpowerful emotions of love, friendship and life.”

Johanna & Brian

“We searched long and hard for a photographer like Jacki in Sweden where we got married, but couldn’t find anyone that even came close, so we flew her over!”

Abby & Grant

“I wanted to be able to look at our photos 10, 20, 30 years from now and feel transported back to our wedding day. This happens every time I lay my eyes on one of our pics or go through our album”.

Nicole & James

“We love her creativity, the element of cheekiness but above everything else the way that she manages to capture the emotions of the day.  We have already worked with Jax in two different countries and it was such a pleasure”

My style is a mixture of creative portraiture and documentary photography with an emphasis on narrative, emotive story telling.

Whether photographing someone's wedding, a couple in love, a portrait of a talented female artist, a famous musician or a man and his best friend, my Fine Art Degree has hugely influenced my approach as a photographer.

I’m fascinated by human stories and strive to craft personalised, emotive imagery about YOU and the moments you cherish. I offer a bespoke service so if you’re interested in commissioning me, I would love to get to know you and your story so that we can work collaboratively to develop something special to hang on your walls that will transcend time. Life goes by so quickly and the magic of photography is that we can preserve those special moments for eternity. Let’s create something beautiful together that you will treasure always.

Let's Work Together
