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...

It seems getting my phone sorted involves far more paperwork and beaucracy than I had imagined.

 

In the meantime please use 083 200 2557 or email me.

 

All finally sorted, back on line 083 212 3430

Liam pointing at the number you can call me on - I know very cheesy indeed, but I am fustrated and tired - and it's only Monday.

I'm more than pleased and quite humbled to share with you some exciting news!

 

I am teaming up with Dror Eyal and we are planning a knock-your-socks-off photography workshop!

I am a little behind in posting this wedding, but, having said that, I am ending 2009 with yet another beautiful couple: Geneiveve & Russell!


The weather started out ominously bad, so bad, in fact, I was made aware of a room that is available at the venue "in case it rains". One look at the painted, fake backdrop (with sunshine) made me determined to find alternative "in case it rains" locations.


We'll, with a stroke of good fortune, it did not rain after all - I was told by Gen they are both very lucky people - very lucky indeed! Another gorgeous day unfolded, along with a dazzling real-life clouds and sun-drenched background. :-)


Gen & Russell were so natural and gorgeous, I would've been hard-pressed not to get great shots.

 
Later at the reception I was asked by a guest as to why I took Genevieve & Russell outside the venue, when, needless to say, Makiti has such a haven of lovely gardens. I smiled. . . and now I hope these images do justice to my approach.

Gen's new surname will be Fish, so many of the décor aspects revolved around the theme of. . . well, fishes - very cute!

Sidenote: Makiti is a stunningly beautiful venue, with good food and really beautiful gardens that give you that country feel, I just seem to be drawn by the lure of dramatic clouds and skies.

I had the rare and privileged pleasure of second-shooting a wedding with Dror - rare, because I don't get to second-shoot much for the best of possible reasons, since I have far too many of my own assignments.

 

It is always fun when I can attempt new things and flex my creative muscles, rather than the usual responsibilities and stress of being the main photographer!

 

Mpopi and Rorisang had a beautiful outside ceremony in the luscious Shepstone Gardens and I feel so lucky to have witnessed their big day. We tried to explore a few lesser-known locations to achieve a different element.

 

Check these out.....

Oh, BTW I think I may have been influenced by Dror, as it seems I have converted more than my usual "one image in a blue moon" into B&W
