As a professional Franschhoek wedding photographer, I’ve had the joy of capturing many beautiful love stories across the Cape Winelands — but few venues are as unforgettable as La Residence in Franschhoek. Recently, I photographed an intimate elopement here, and it quickly became clear why this location is considered one of South Africa’s most sought-after wedding venues.
