De Wet Niemann is the proud new owner of Um-Sha-Tu Photography & Design.

His passion for photography started at a very young age of 9, with the occasional snapshot being taken mainly of nature scenes and anything else that you could find in it. At this stage he had to be satisfied with an average point-and-shoot film camera.

In 1999 he joined the old Pretoria Technikon to complete his degree in art, whilst spending a large amount of time on photography and B&W darkroom printing techniques. After three years in art he decided to give his full attention to photography where he joined the National College of Photography and graduated at the end of 2002.

On successfully completing his diploma course he started working for a major photographic company focusing mainly on studio work, including a variety of assignments such as family photos, kindergarten photos and also weddings. Shortly after starting at this company, he took over the entire photographic studio and continued with the above mentioned work, but also spending a large amount of time on general school photos. After gaining tremendous experience in working with people, he soon realised that he has an absolute passion for wedding photography and his desire to specialise in weddings grew even stronger.

Today, being a successful wedding photographer, De Wet finds pleasure in providing each client with a complete product of the highest standards, thus allowing you to relive your special day time and again. Paying extra attention to customer service, and being more creative than ever, his ultimate goal is to make your memories last a lifetime.
