“IT IS RARE TO FIND SOMEONE WITH TRUE HEART, PASSION & TALENT BEHIND EVERY INCH OF THEIR WORK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTLESS APPROACH.” M & F

Lizelle Goussard

Hi, I am Liz, a full time international wedding photographer based between Cape Town and Dubai. When I am not photographing a oh-so-pretty wedding, you will find me browsing antique shops, planning our next holiday and spending quality time with my family.

I spent almost 12 years in Dubai, which I call my second home. From Dubai, I had the privilege of travelling the world and met my South African husband on a plane in 2008 – yup, it was a pretty fun flight! We decided to elope and had a intimate wedding on Phi-Phi Island, Thailand in 2013. We now have a daughter named Éva and she is pretty darn cute and a parrot named Peanut.

My photography career started in Dubai, where I had the privilege of capturing beautiful, multicultural weddings at amazing venues.

I have a love for cultures and exploring remote locations all over the world and my second big love is tea with rusks in bed!!

When you meet me, I will give you a hug and air kisses on the cheeks – fair warning!

“Thank you for all the love that you poured into capturing our wedding, it shines through in every image.”

If I have a free Sunday I would spend it …
spending it in my pyjamas (for the most part of the day) and playing with my daughter. Just being lazy with her and eating food on the couch in front of the tv – exceptions are to be made on Sundays!
My most memorable travel experience was …
walking the streets of Italy and visiting the Vatican second by Thailand, where we got married.
What I love most about my job is …
I honestly do not see it as a job, as I absolutely love what I do. I love to get to know my couples. I love that I get to be part of their story. I cry at almost every ceremony and my husband makes fun of me when I sit in front of my computer smiling with pure joy whilst going through the images.
I love where I live because …
I love the nature and all the wine farms right on my doorstep.
My favourite movie is …
I don’t have a favourite movie, but I love to watch movies based on actual events like Lone Survivor. I am quite the thinker and love to understand the facts behind events.
The pets I own are …
my parakeet called Peanut, she is green & our dog called Luna, a Schnauzer.
