Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How can couples find reviews of Western Cape wedding photographers?
A: We call them Client Letters. At the WPJA, we decided more than 20 years ago to avoid incorporating those third-person testimonials and endorsements that are found all too often in advertisements. Instead, we elevated our listings with the use of Client Letters, which represent the actual words and feelings of the clients who booked those Western Cape wedding photographers for their own wedding.
Q: Where can I find a photographer for a short-notice, small Western Cape wedding?
A: There are many WPJA photographers who are able to help you out at a moment's notice. We understand that sometimes love happens and there's simply no time to lose. We can ensure that you can get married as quickly as possible — and have incredible photographs to remember your Western Cape wedding day by.
Q: How can couples find Western Cape photographers for pre-wedding engagement portraits?
A: The WPJA issues Diamond Awards for Western Cape wedding photographers to showcase their best engagement photography work. These awards are given to photographers who prove that they have an ability to be creative, artistic, and intuitive while working on-location with couples who are newly engaged.
