Engagement Shoot | Lauren & Jon | Noordhoek Beach, Cape Town

When you wake up for a shoot at 5am and look out the window and see what looks like rain and clouds and wind and weather that just begs you to phone the client and tell them that we’ll be better off shooting on another day…what do you actually end up doing. You go do the shoot! And even though it was freezing and the wind was howling I’m still very happy that we pushed through...

Engagement Shoot | Shu-Wen & Ian | Sea Point, Cape Town

This was take two of Shu-Wen and Ian’s engagement shoot, the first shoot rained out a bit (the weather has been very unpredictable in Cape Town) and there were about 10 000 people walking on the promenade for breast cancer awareness, which would’ve made shooting with no people in the background a little bit more difficult. It’s amazing sometimes how quickly a couple can forget...

Annemarie & Wes | Engagement Shoot | Llundudno Beach

What an amazing way to start a weekend! I drove through to Llundudno beach early on Saturday morning.

We found the entire beach deserted except for a few surfers and the occasional dog walking around. Annemarie and Wesley are so full of life and so excited about their wedding...

Jürgen & Althea | West Coast Couple Shoot

I met Jürgen last year through one of his photo meetups. Jürgen is a professional portrait and commercial photographer in Cape Town and as a side-line (because photographers can never be too busy!) he still has time to arrange photography walks and meetups as well! They’re great fun and cater for everyone, from the point-and-shoot crowd, to the guys (and girls) with the biceps to carry those...
