About Me

I am a mother of three boys (three boys, being punished for my sins!) and have been a fan of photography for years. I started shooting weddings seriously about five years ago. With the arrival of my twins, I decided to reduce my working hours in order to spend more time at home with my boys. Using photography to make up for the loss of income was a natural progression.

This is where you will be able to catch regular excerpts of what I am up to...

Liza and David love nature and wanted to do their engagement shoot in a “countryside” setting.  We had a venue, and on my 'must do' list was a “roll in the grass”… So, when they arrived, I thought, I wonder if they will agree to lay down in the grass in their nice CLEAN clothes.   

Thank you, Liza and David, for being so adventurous! - I always wanted to photograph a couple rolling around in the “hay”!   Your “Dust Dance” also created some very different images, which I love! Here's a peek....   engagement-03.jpg engagement-02.jpg engagement-04.jpg engagement-05.jpg Not everyone’s cup of tea…but I love these "dust dance" images! David and Liza’s engagement shoot was at Isidleke, a stunning venue, in Modderfontein Conservation Park. A place where you to feel like you are in the bush and it is literally 10 minutes away from Edenvale. For those that are interested in seeing the venue you can contact Helen who co-ordinates all their functions and weddings Helen@onceuponatable.co.za.  BTW……This is where I got married!

June 5, 2007 // Engagement
The cool, crisp winter mornings and shorter days are quickly closing in on us. This is definately the time for red wine and a hypnotising fire! What better way to "celebrate winter" than to freeze your butt off in the early hours of the morning......shooting Nina and Ryan's engagement shoot! As Ryan so eloquently put it " 7am.....it looked good on paper."  We once again had to dodge security (what is it with me and security??) and jump over a fence to get to the horse carrousel but all in all we had a great time photographing  ....YIP even at 7 am in the morning! Nina and Ryan will be getting married in a couple of months time so watch this post. Here are couple of pics from their shoot. nina-ryan-04.jpg nina-ryan-16.jpg
