On WeddingWire since 2023

Last update: September 2023

Howzit is an informal way to say hello in South Africa! We recently moved to Canada from sunny South Africa. After 17 years, my beautiful wife, Amanda, our daughter, Savannah, and I decided it was time for a new adventure. We sold everything in S.A. and moved to Canada with 8 x 11″ travel bags! We currently reside in Osoyoos, B.C.

I am an international wedding photographer. With more than 15 years of experience, I can confidently adapt to any industry, culture, theme, style, or trend. In the words of Ty Holland, “A photograph is the pause button in life.” I love that. That makes me smile. I’ve photographed weddings in the U.S.A, Canada, Mexico, Jamaica, Spain, South Africa, and Namibia.

A second best man

Gustav shot our wedding and made the day even more joyful. Both of us don't really enjoy being in front of the lens but Gustav has this way of catching moments and making us feel comfortable at the same time. As a photographer myself I'm a huge fan of Gustav's style too. His personality matched with expertise makes him worth every cent. If he's available, book him now.

Couldn’t have picked a better photographer!

From the very beginning, Gustav made us feel at ease. We came to an agreement very quickly and he made sure to understand our vision in order to execute it beautifully (which he did!)

On the day, he was there to capture every detail, even before the guests arrival. He helped guide our movements in a way that ensured we had amazing shots without compromising our comfort. Extremely experienced, flexible, and generous. Gustav recommended we do a sunset photoshoot after the ceremony, which turned out to be one of the highlights of our special day!

In addition to this, Gustav was a great wedding guest, very likeable and fun. Our guests loved him!

The photos came out STUNNING! Our family and friends were quite impressed with the quality of the photos and attention to detail.

2 months later, one of the things we look back on now and remember fondly is our experience with Gustav. It is without a doubt one of the choices we’re most grateful for.

Exceptional images, Exceptional service deserves an Oscar!

I can honestly say that I am extremely happy that I chose Gustav Klotz Photography to capture our engagement shoot and wedding day. My husband is a little shy when it comes to the camara, and I was quite worried about our engagement shoot, but Gustav made him feel so comfortable, and we were able to capture beautiful photos. Gustav and his team captured our wedding day perfectly, and it was a pleasure that have you part of it all. We are so pleased with the results and the lasting memories we now have through imagery of our special day and guests. Gustav, you are an incredible photographer, so friendly, and very fun to work with. We have never smiled and kissed so much in one day, ha-ha!! But we enjoyed every moment! We are beyond grateful for all the effort you and your team have put it.

My husband's mother (my mother in-law) passed away 4 months after our wedding, and we can now go back to the highlight videos in memory of her, which is tremendously special to us. If we want to hear her voice again, we can simply revert to the video :)

I am glad that I got to meet Gustav before his immigration to Canada, I was just in time to hire him for my wedding day! :)

Goodluck in Canada Gustav. South Africa lost a great photographer while Canada is blessed to gained you!

A fun photoshoot!

Gustav is amazing! We had our engagement shoot with him in Vancouver and had a great experience. He was very flexible when we had to reschedule due to weather and illnesses and was easy to communicate with leading up to our session. My fiancé and I were pretty nervous but Gustav made us comfortable and helped guide us with some easy poses. His enthusiasm and excitement during our session definitely made it fun and we were very happy with our sneak peek photos that were sent to us just two days after our shoot. We can’t wait for him to be apart of our wedding!

Fun, easy and so professional.

Gustav Klotz Photography made our engagement shoot and wedding day so much fun. And he captured the most magical images. He has an eye for detail. He is an amazing person to work with. From our engagement shoot to our pre-wedding images, wedding day and post wedding photos we were comfortable, laughing way too much, and just having so much fun. He has an sense to work with each an every couple to capture those magical moments that you’ll Forever have. We couldn’t have asked for better.
