Lerang & Tilewa Selolwane - 25 October 2008, Gaborone, Botswana

I was lucky enough to be able to make a flying visit to Botswana
last week to attend Lerang and Til's wedding! It was held in the
beautiful Mokolodi Nature Reserve which meant I had unexpected
encounters with cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, baboons and kudus.

The wedding venue was perched on top of a hill overlooking

Mokolodi Nature Reserve. It was breathtaking!

I was asked to take a polaroid of each of the guests as they

arrived. It was a lot of fun and a great way to introduce myself

to everyone.

And they're married...(actually, they were

already married in Tswana custom before this).

We met up with this handsome fellow on the

Mokolodi reserve for photos with the bridal party.






The only time he got upset was when you stopped

scratching his head.

The bridal party and a few others spent the night

at Mokolodi. After being woken by baboons chasing each

other across the roof of our hut we had a champagne

breakfast by the lake where we were met by...

...elephants having a bath!

We also stumbled across a giraffe and a...
