Love and Fables Photography

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who feels more like a calm, happy presence than someone directing your whole day, then Love and Fables is definitely one to look at.

Yolandi from Love and Fables Photography is based in Dana Bay, Mossel Bay, and works across the Garden Route and beyond. From the first interaction, you get a sense of her energy — easygoing, playful, and genuinely excited about what she does. It’s not stiff or overly styled. It’s real, natural, and focused on capturing how things actually felt.

Her style leans into soft, light-filled images with a natural look, but what really makes it stand out is her approach. She works in that sweet spot between posed and candid. You won’t be left wondering what to do with your hands, but you also won’t feel like you’re stuck in awkward, overly posed moments. There’s guidance when you need it, and space for things to unfold naturally.

Expect a lot of movement, a lot of laughter, and those in-between moments that often end up being the favourites. Yolandi has a way of making people feel comfortable quickly, which means you can just be yourselves — and that always shows in the photos.

Her personality plays a big role in the experience too. She brings a light, curious energy to the day, noticing the small moments and interactions that others might miss. It’s less about perfection and more about connection.

At the end of the day, Love and Fables Photography is about telling your story in a way that feels honest and relaxed — with photos that you’ll look back on and actually feel something.
