| Mist rolling in15/09/14 |
I know I’ve said this so many times before but one of my favourite bits about my job is getting to meet such a wonderful variety of fascinating people! It’s a real privilege to get a peek into their story, especially at such precious times of their lives, like getting engaged or saying their “I do’s”. Anshen flew down to the Cape with his gorgeous girlfriend Ronette, a princess cut diamond gleeming in his pocket :-) He popped the question on Friday, already having booked our eshoot session from afar, hoping she would say yes! And of course she did :-D So Saturday afternoon we headed out to photograph this beautiful ring and their happy smiles on a breath-taking piece of Cape coastline with the mist rolling in… Perfect…

The light and the rocks and the haze – it’s like a bit of a dream… Ronette and Anshen’s Lovebirds engagement shoot was such a joy to photograph this last weekend. More photos coming soon!

Claudine and Pieter-Philip are saying their I do’s up on the West Coast near Jacobs Bay so we decided to do something completely different with their Lovebirds engagement shoot! If you follow my blog, you’ll know how much I love my adopted home region here in the Overberg so on a clear winter’s day we set out to wander through the pine forests of Elgin, camera in hand, to start their photo story… I love the earthy feel to these images…
The very last click of the camera on Saturday’s eshoot :-) The serene and gorgeous Claudine…

| Down by the lake11/08/14 |
There’s still a nip in the air as winter winds down and a quietness out here in Elgin that you never get at any other time of year. The ground is still sleepy and spring still a few weeks off. I love shooting during winter (when it isn’t raining ;-)) because of the calm colours and low skies that diffuse the light so beautifully -you always get the best and gentlest skin tones during winter shoots. Anchen, Brandon and I drove all the way up to the top of Elgin to Mofam River Lodge for their Lovebirds engagement shoot and found the most magnificent river’s edge waiting for us! It felt like we had found a little bit of the American Rocky mountains, complete with fishermen on the lake, plaid shirts, cut logs and pine forests :-) I just LOVE this shoot and I hope you all enjoy the photos from my first session of the season! Anchen and Brandon, I can’t wait for a totally different vibe at your 12 Apostles wedding in November!! I hope you guys love the pics :-)… Make-up by the wonderfully talent Marli Basson.

Oooh, I love a wintery eshoot!! Here’s a sneak peek of Anchen and Brandon’s lakeside loveliness from their engagement shoot this last weekend :-)
It was a true joy to photograph Dani and Ross – from the incredible beach setting and their vibrant love of life down to so many windswept kisses and their natural ease with each other which translated into something amazing to capture in camera… I hope you love the photos as much as I LOVED shooting this amazing Lovebirds engagement session. I just can’t wait for their gorgeous wedding at the Oaks later this year! Dani and Ross, you two are just a.m.a.z.i.n.g…

| A Song and a Story16/09/13 |
You could really say the sparks fly between these two – for so many reasons! Not least because they met and fell in love at a nuclear power station! Gosh I love my job that I get to write that and it’s really true :-D These two are passionate, fun and perfectly matched souls and it’s my total pleasure to be able to capture a little bit of that electricity on camera… What a fun Lovebirds engagement shoot – can’t wait for the wedding now!!

| Vespa Road Trip12/08/13 |
I felt like I was on a movie set hanging out the back of a Jeep shooting these super glam lovebirds on their zooty navy Vespa, round the curves and past the views of Chapman’s Peak :-) What a fun engagement shoot to start off the season! We ended the day with Danielle and Daryl down on Llandudno beach with the most amazingly diffuse sea salt spray sunset… The shoot definitely demanded some ‘vintage late afternoon’ editing :-) How much do we love Dan’s aqua nail polish ?!?! My inspiration for the colour grading! Enjoy…

| A Beautiful Afternoon08/05/12 |
It’s not always easy living so far away from Cape Town and ‘where it’s happening’, but I love where I live – the quiet beauty of the mountains and calm wilds of the fynbos covering the hills that run down to the sea. I know how lucky I am :-)
It’s such a treat for me when couples decide to shoot their Lovebirds engagement session close by and I love it when special couples like Anzel and Johan are happy for me to lead them around my stomping ground to find those unique spots and hidden locations where we can photograph. I love this shoot so so so much and hope you will too.
