The Gorgeous Glover Girls...

I love it when families are excited about their shoot: clothes have been carefully chosen, a plan has been made to keep little ones occupied... and these gorgeous girls even came ready with creative ideas and some seriously great props: I loved it! And to top all of that off, the sun broke through the weekend's clouds to give us the most beautiful golden light - and then disappeared again soon after we were done.  

Shoots like this one simply reinforce my feelings that photographing families is such a blessing; being able to capture something of the essence of each personality and the way each person fits, is so very, very special.  Thank you Glover Family for allowing me to spend a fun afternoon with you.

Location: Kleineroosboom Wine Farm, Durbanville.  

True Heroes...

This is one truly remarkable family; am so humbled by their story... already a family of five, when parents Amrei & Gerhard heard about three kids needing a house of safety, they opened their home.  Three months later, they are the proud (if a little exhausted) parents of six beautiful children!  Its incredible to see the children flourish as they learn about what love truly is... and have their lives changed by the love and goodness of God.

It was such an honour being able to take this family's photos & pray all of God's greatest blessings upon each of them

Lessons with Linda

I was so blessed by the opportunity of assisting the lovely Linda of Linda Fourie Photography at a wedding over the weekend. Wow, what an awesome experience! Nothing beats the lessons learnt in the middle of the action and I was so lucky to be able to snap a few pics of my own between perfecting my reflector holding and bag carrying skills... 

Do not despise the day of small beginnings - nor forget to appreciate the people who played a role in teaching you valuable lessons.  Thank you Linda for an incredible opportunity!
