I love catching up with them when we meet up for shoots and was so delighted to finally meet their sweet little Caitlyn. What a cute little squirrel she is!!!

So many sweet pics of this gorgeous girlie and her mum and dad from our shoot last week! Love love love the calm winter colours, grey reeds and water reflections. Here’s a little sneak peek :-)

A second little miracle is on the way for this special family! The winds blew our shoot short, but they worked their magic as well! :-D

My GORGEOUS friend Yolande from ‘Yolande du Toit Professional Make Up Artist and Hair Stylist‘ and her beautiful family spent an afternoon out here in sunny Elgin. Her little ones were exceptional models (you know it Yolande!! :-D) and forests and fields made for wonderfully textured backdrops for their shoot! I’m so glad we managed to find some time for their lovely family photos before wedding season really gets underway :-) Enjoy the spring light, happy pics and gorgeous Fleur le Cordeur flower crown…

Gabrielskloof is the most breathtaking winery set high up on a hill overlooking the fields of Bot River with their waving crops and flocks of blue cranes. You drive up through the grey-green olive groves to reach the restaurant tucked in between the rock walls and geometric lawns where you’re met by lovely Mariaan and sit down to cool glass of wine and her husband Frans’ wonderful food. Delicious dishes full of locally sourced produce and olives off the farm, selections of handcrafted wines and views through the dappled olive trees – the loveliest way to spend an afternoon with friends in the Overberg.

This little dandelion fairy came to visit me last week with her gorgeous family…

Libby and James are friends of ours here in the Elgin valley and this is their second happy family shoot to capture the fleeting baby days of their second gorgeous son :-D What an amazing thing it is to grow up in such a special area, on such a beautiful farm… Here are some photos of a happy childhood on an apple farm.

Gill and I were at school together longer than anyone else I studied with! We went to primary school, high school and university together and spent many happy days growing up, building forts, facing exams and generally sharing the same path through our different lives until I left for the UK. A few years later my husband and I lived with Gill in her stunning New Town flat in Edinburgh and it was some of the happiest times we spent overseas :-) Gill now lives on a farm in the highlands of Scotland with her two gorgeous kiddies and husband Charlie and we were lucky enough to spend a few hours together out here in SA when they flew over for a friends wedding :-) Gilly, these times with your precious little ones is going to go so fast – already is, I’m sure!! – I’m glad we had a chance to capture them at this age :-) Lots and lots of love xxxx

Enjoy the pics of these two wonderful lovebirds on the absolutely breathtaking Paul Cluver Estate

These are our lovely friends (and awesome landlords!) – the Bruwer family :-D After some rained out dates we finally managed to reschedule our shoot and what a gorgeous ‘sunlight through the trees’ afternoon we got! Elgin is just so beautiful and chock full of sticks and stones and acorns and flowers – perfect for keeping kiddies amused while I click away :-) That being said these two are some of the most natural kids in front of the camera that I’ve ever photographed!! Enjoy the photos. Assisted by the lovely and helpful Charne Strauss

Do you remember Tanya’s maternity shoot on a cloudy Betty’s Bay beach? Can you believe that was over two years ago and today we’re sharing her family shoot with little Cullan running around and beaming for the camera??!! I just dropped my youngest daughter off at ‘big school’ for the first time and I’m really appreciating the bittersweet moments of watching these precious kiddies grow up… Enjoy the photos :-)
