Best of Netherwood Weddings

You will find Netherwood wedding venue in the Natal midlands on the way to Nottingham road, which is just a couple of hours away from Durban in South Africa. It’s an changing farm which is painted by the seasons every few months, vermillion green in the summer, and brown, amber and crispy in the winter. Netherwood is a working farm with a herd of Nguni cattle and a few other interesting animals like Zebras and Alpaca’s, but it also homes one of the loveliest places to say I do in KZN! Every time I go there I find something that I haven’t seen before, a new angle or an orchard of spring blossoms and a field of maize. Beautiful, open places inspire me and so I find Netherwood to be a very inspiring place!

So far as wedding venues go, the reception venue is a very clever design with the bar right in the middle of the dance floor and this makes for cracker parties! It’s a neutral space, which means it‘s  a blank canvas for you to decorate. It also has cottages and a huge big farmhouse with loads of bedrooms in it, so it’s a great venue for a weekend wedding. The chapel looks over the valley and on a clear day you can see the mountains way off in the distance.

I’ve shot so many weddings at Netherwood and every single one of them has been special. From the rainy, muddy and misty, to the bone chilling icy cold, to the mild and temperate they have all been an experience to remember. I’ve seen some crazy moves on that dance floor and so many tears and happy smiles at the chapel. My main reason for loving my Netherwood wedding memories however, is because I have just loved all the couples I have photographed there!

Oh and the blueberry café on the property definitely worth a visit!

Did you take a ladder with you to get that shot?

Did you take a ladder with you to get that shot?

I saw your latest blog post (AMAZING) and I’ve just got to ask: did you take a ladder with you on the bridal party shoot? Or were you just lucky enough that there were something for you to stand on?

Sorry, I’m just curious

Again, well done with taking amazing photos every single time. Your work amazes me so much.

I always push myself to create images that I haven’t been done before when shooting a wedding. Sometimes this takes planning and sometimes this happens spontaneously!

I arrived at Netherwood the day before Chantel and Brett’s big day and noticed the two different colour fields whilst doing a location scout. I also noticed that the sun was going down behind the two different fields and realized that I would need a point of elevation in order to reduce flare and truly get a sense of the fields and the different textures. I liked the idea of putting girls on one side boys on the other … It was really just a quirky take on men and women being in different “worlds”. Nothing too serious though, just a bit of fun.

In order to make the shot happen I needed a tall ladder and so I asked the wonderful folk at Netherwood if I could borrow one. I then asked a very obliging boyfriend of one of the bridesmaids to help us transport and carry the ladder on the day.

It was a mission! But in the end I got a different angle and a different photo.

Hope that answers your question, thanks for the kind words and for getting in touch!!!
