About us
Welcome to Ruberns Photography, where moments become memories.
Ruberns Photography began with Ruwan’s love for capturing life’s fleeting beauty through a camera lens. As a husband-and-wife team, we bring our own perspectives and personalities to every wedding. Our creative eye and detail-oriented style come together seamlessly, capturing genuine moments that reflect the joy, anticipation, and love of each celebration. Together, we’ve had the privilege of documenting hundreds of weddings across South Africa. From the breathtaking vineyards of the Cape to the vast skies of the highveld, every location has left its mark on our journey, and each couple we’ve worked with holds a special place in our hearts.
Our team grew with the addition of Franco, whose creative vision and talent opened a new chapter in Ruberns Photography: videography. Now, alongside stunning photographs, we offer cinematic films that allow couples to relive the laughter, the tears, and the joy of their special day.
With a heart for storytelling, we are dedicated to creating images and films that speak to the soul, preserving your love in ways that can be shared for generations. At Ruberns Photography, we’re not just capturing moments; we’re capturing the essence of your love story.
Let us help you bring your memories to life.

Kelsey M2024-09-08Our photos are amazing! Working with Ruwan was amazing. He does an incredible job at helping pose you and make it feel very natural. Very communicative and was flexible with a special request we had to include a bottle of champagne in some photos. Definitely would work with him again!Stephnie Blackwell2024-08-23Thank you Ruwan for capturing our wedding day! From start to finish you made us feel so confident and comfortable. We knew we were in the best hands. Our individual and couple photoshoots were so much fun! We both really enjoyed it and appreciated your guidance for those of us who don’t really know how to pose! In the ceremony and reception, you moved around so effortlessly in the background that we didn’t even notice! Looking through the photos after receiving them, we were blown away by your artistic talent. Everyone we have shown the pictures to has commented on your skills, creativity and professionalism. The highlights video you made for us is so special and something we will treasure for years to come. Every time we watch it, it’s like being transported back to our favourite day! You were recommended to us by a friend and we will absolutely pass on our recommendations to all our friends and family who may get married in the future!Lucinda Mentor2024-07-25When it comes to your wedding day, you want everything to be perfect and you want little moments to be captured beautifully. With the cameras clicking and flashing, one can't help but feel a little bit like a celebrity :). Ruberns did exactly that for us... As a husband-and-wife photography team, it was so natural for us to sneak in a little kiss and a hug and a sweet whisper in each other's ear. And just so now and then, we caught them lowering their cameras, just to appreciate the love between two people starting their new journey. We highly recommend them to capture your most precious moments in the most natural settings.Nicole Tang2024-07-10Incredible experience with Ruberns Photography for our couples/engagement shoot in Cape Town. We were only there for a few days and he was so flexible with our schedule and weather forecast to make sure we had clear skies for the photos! He was also accommodating to our inquiry to try two locations. He is very well prepared for the photo shoot, and clearly has tons of experience because he knows how to guide us, where to stand and how to pose which is critical for organic and candid photos. The final products were phenomenal and all our friends and family are gushing over how beautiful they are. We highly recommend using Ruberns Photography for any of your photoshoot needs!Bianca Ferreira2024-07-02Ruberns captured our special day so perfectly!
