Dear Andre

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for making the memory our wedding day last forever.

Words are not enough, not only to thank you, but to praise you as well.  Your attitude towards your work and towards us was of a professional  manner and we have received only praise and compliments from friends and relatives who have seen your work.  Each and every little detail that you add and attend to counts!!!  I will never forget you going out to you car and bringing me s straw for my cool drink so that I didn't mess up my lipstick!!!

When we look back at the pics and the magic you added one can understand that you are THE PHOTO GENIE.

Once again, thank you so much for everything and we both wish you every success.

Kind regards

Stephan and Kelly Fourie

Wedding Photography: 26 April 2008

It was with great despair that I was still looking for a wedding photographer one month before the wedding day.  I was delighted to come across "Fotogenie" over the web as their profile and price seemed positive.  I was immediately contacted by Andre and an appointment was set up.

We were so impressed by the way we were received by Andre and the time he spent with us showing us his portfolio and explaining the different packages that were on offer.  I was immediately put at ease and knew that I had found my wedding photographer.  Andre really takes pride in his work and really goes out of his way to make his brides feel at ease on one of the most special days of their lives.  His professional and friendly service starts from your first conversation and extends beyond your wedding day.  Andre called me before the wedding to make sure everything was on track, he gave me wonderful advice on taking care of myself on the big day.  The pre-shoot is great way to interact with your photographer and it truly contributed to the success of the wedding day itself.

The level of Andre's experience was obvious and very impressive, the fact that he knew the venue and knew which photos work best made me enjoy the day to the fullest extent.

The interaction and professionalism between the photographer and the videographer was so evident that most of the time I was not even aware they were taking certain shots. The work of Fotogenie was absolutely unobtrusive.

Of course, the best part for me, was when I received my photographs.  I was totally blown away.  Every  picture was perfect and I could and still can't get enough of looking at my wedding photos.  Every family member, work colleague and friends who look at the wedding photos have the same reaction, "Wow! You had a really good photographer."  I was more than satisfied with the product I received at the end of it all.  The quality of the photos that we received was certainly far more than we had paid for.  You get the quality of those ten to fifteen thousand Rand photographer packages without having to pay that price.

To Andre and Rikus, a very big thank you for the excellent work that you did and for contributing to making my wedding day enjoyable and stress free.  I highly recommend any (bride) especially, to use Fotogenie for their wedding.

Wedding DVD

Hazendal 26.4.2008

Rikus A very very big thank you for the stunning wedding DVD that you made for us. Since receiving our DVD we have watched it over and over and we are so impressed by the way you put it all together. I absolutely love the music that you chose and how it all came together. from the beginning it is clear that you are about to view a very professional product. I was so blown away by the inclusion of the music video and at the end the names of all our guests were scrolled as the rolling credits.

You really captured our day in such detail and still with all the raw emotions of the day itself. It was such a stress free day with you behind the camera, although we only met on the day itself, you put me at ease. Your work was so unobtrusive I hardly knew that you were there at all. For our family who were not able to be there for the wedding it was great for them to see the day and all our friends and family who have seen the DVD all have the same expression, "Wow!"

I am really impressed by the quality of the DVD and we did not have to take out an extra bond just to have a wedding DVD. I am so grateful that we were able to get such value for money - we really got so much more than we paid for. Once again, thank you very much, I have no problem recommending you to anyone in search of a wedding videographer. For all the time and effort that was put into the final product, know that we are truly and forever grateful for everything.

We will always be able to treasure our wedding day, thanks to you Rikus. May God bless your work abundantly!

All of the best for the future.

Op die dag van 'n mens se troue gebeur alles so vinning en 'n mens sien nie alles raak of neem alles in nie . Daarom is herinneringe van 'n wonderlike troue so kosbaar. Eendag as ons oud is, sal herinneringe maar vaag wees maar sal ons kan kyk na die pragtige foto's en DVD.

Andre, baie dankie vir die pragtige foto's. Ek dink ons het nog nooit so mooi gelyk in ons lewe nie. Jy mag maar aanhou foto's neem! Rikus, ek het nie woorde om te beskryf hoe pragtig die DVD is nie, ek moes 'n boks snesies nader trek, veral na die musiekvideo, want dis asof jy my gedagtes gelees het met die liedjie. Dis die liedjie wat ek ek graag sou wou gebruik het. Baie dankie!

Weereens baie dankie aan altwee van julle vir al die harde werk en tyd wat julle in julle werk gesit het, dit wys op die foto's en die DVD 

 

 

Thank you so much for the beautiful photo's taken at my wedding. I waited on tender hooks for them to arrive and when Chris and I went through the photo's, well let's say it was definitely worth the wait! The quality of the photo's are amazing and all our friends and family just gave rave reviews.

We are both very proud to show off our photo's and would just like to extend our thanks again for literally making our wedding unforgettable!

Hallo Andre

Ons foto's is asemrowend. G'n jy kry so baie bestellings nie! Jy het jouself oortref. Dankie dat jy my mooiste dag so mooi vasgevang het. Ek sal beslis baie mense na jou verwys. Hulle kan nie verkeerd gaan nie. Almal wat die foto's sien is baie impressed met jou werk.

Nogmaals dankie!
