Testimonials

After writing so many good things about Jan Theron as a wedding photographer, it would be a bit embarrassing if we found nobody who agreed with us. Fortunately, we found some testimonials!

 

Dear Jan and Teresa
I cannot thank you enough once again for the wonderful service and attention to detail with which you have proven yourself today, as always, with going the extra mile for this bridal couple. We pride ourselves on using you as one of our recommended suppliers and it is wonderful to have you as part of our RCH Family, proving that there is no request too large, no detail too small!

As always, Kindest Regards
Johan du Toit - Banqueting Manager - The Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa

 

Dear Jan and Teresa
I just wanted to drop you a quick email to say how completely delighted Carl and I are with our photo album and wedding video. They are truly amazing and are far and beyond what we had hoped for! We were all so impressed with the quality and creativity and how you both managed to capture everything about our perfect day. You made us all feel very comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed working with both of you. Your exceptional service before, during and after our wedding coupled with your friendly and helpful manner helped to create such a wonderful memory. Viewing the video has brought back the emotions of the day, our laughter, tears and joy. We were left speechless. Thank you so so much. We would definitely recommend your service to anyone considering it.

Many thanks
Melanie and Carl

 

We cannot thank you enough for the photos that you took, which delighted us from the moment we first received them, and continue to do so whenever we look at them. Its also very satisfying as the subject of these very precious memories that whenever we have showed them to people they all comment, without hesitation as to how fantastic they are!! Not only that, but the commitment that both you and Teresa showed in ensuring we were at ease, comfortable and happy with the results, exceeded our expectations. For instance you knew that we really wanted those beach shots, and despite the weather, and beyond a point that other photographers would have given up, you persevered and managed to get the shots we hoped for. We would be more than happy to recommend you as its hard to think of a better package - a great photographer, value for money and perhaps more importantly, a friendliness and commitment that cannot be faked. Once again, to both you and Teresa, our heartfelt thanks.

Dear Jan and Teresa,
We would just like to say a huge thank you for taking the most amazing photo's at our wedding, it was a priviledge to be able to have such a talented photographer take photos of our special day. Jan, the photo's are awesome and exactly what we wanted. The ones of our friends and family and the way you captured emotions in all the photo's is so special and we couldn't have wished for nicer photo's.Brad and I had such fun 'working' with you and it was great to have two such lovely people be a part of our wedding. To have the photo's as soon as we came back from honeymoon was such a treat as we still had a whole week to show them off to everyone before we left. Thank you, too, for having them ready for Graham to bring back to JHB, even though you had a difficult week with large periods of no electricity. We wish you everything of the best for the future.

Kind Regards,
Lisa and Brad

 

Dear Jan
Thank you again for the beautiful photographs you took of Our Wedding, they were more like a work of art to tell you the truth. You captured the atmosphere and moments of the wedding, without leaving out the beauty of Franschhoek itself. The colours that have been captured are warm and rich, soft and light - just beautiful. I have been told by my family and friends that your quality of work and attention to detail is outstanding - and I would have to agree with them.

Thank you for capturing Our Wedding Day.
Kirsten

 

Dear Jan,
I just want to say thank you very much for the wonderful photographs from our wedding day at the 12 Apostles Hotel, 24 January. I have to admit that the photography was the part of the wedding I was least looking forward to, however the camera has been extremely flattering and for that I am very grateful! You were completely unobtrusive and very professional, and we particularly like the pictures taken at Cosy Beach. I found the overall standard of service in South Africa exceptional, and far better than anything I would have expected had we got married in the UK.

Thanks again,
Nicola and Jon

 

Dear Teresa and Jan,
Just a note to say that the DVDs arrived safely. I arrived home late tonight having been in Cambridge today to operate on a baby. He developed a fever overnight so the operation was cancelled and my flight home this evening was delayed 2 1/2 hours! It has been a long and frustrating day having been up at 6.30 this morning. My tiredness vanished as soon as the video began - it is truly spectacular. As Gen said, the fact that it starts and ends with the photographs; it's as if a photo album has sprung to life. It is really magical. Thank you so much, I know just how much work has gone into it. I do a great deal of keyhole surgery in tiny infants and I video all the procedures. I lecture all over the world on the subject and the most time consuming aspect is editing short video clips for my powerpoint slides. Your video is truly a work of art and we appreciate it greatly. I felt compelled to email you before going to bed as we are so excited by it.
Maybe you'll read this in Santorini as I know you fly tomorrow. Safe journey and a pleasant holiday. When Gen first met you she told me that she'd found the perfect couple to record Lucie and Ady's most important day. I realised, with the pre-wedding pictures, that she'd found something special. The DVD is the icing on the cake!

Many thanks,
Gordon and Gen

 

Hi Jan,
Thank you so much for everything you did for us, our wedding was so wonderful. We expected it to be special but it was completely beyond any of our wildest dreams. We are showing the video to 100 of our family and friends at our wedding party in 2 weeks time and I really hope they enjoy it like you did - We love it!!!!

With love
Rebecca

 

Hi Teresa/Jan
Just a note to thank you Teresa for the efforts you have put in ensuring that all the moments are well captured in the DVD, I have watched quiet a number of wedding DVD's in the past and this is the most interesting one thus far, not because I was getting married, but the relevance of scenes vs. effects and music, you were able to synchronize the music that I gave you well with the scenes and not to mention the first track when the DVD starts, it was the first time I heard it and it made so much sense and we both thank you for it, my wife has watched it so many times I think I stopped counting after she watched it for the 11th time and that was sometimes over the weekend anyway.... The DVD has been done exceptionally well and we are both enjoying it big time!!!
Thank you again and this was extraordinary work.
From the Khumalo's to the Theron's 
Take care guys, you guys make a great team.

Regards

Hi Jan & Teresa,
Thanks for the DVD! Its brilliant!! What a super job you have made of it. Not a dry eye in the house... Many many thanks for capturing the day so perfectly, the venue,relaxed crowd, the whole occasion was just as I remembered it, and will now be able to recreate it whenever I am far from home and family. In particular the lighting and scenes where Jo & H are together are stunning. They very much fell in love with the historic manor house and estate and you have got it all, so I know they will be delighted too. I shall certainly be passing your name on to others, as if you are not inundated with requests already! Well done, and thanks again, good luck in Greece
