Tim & Lize

Frank Sinatra sang about the look of love and I saw that tonight at this wedding! This couple had the look of love and it was so pure, beautiful and inspirational - thank you for that! This is a record time post for me! Posted the same night it was shot :)

I was thrilled to get this shot, I saw it happening before me and I quickly re-acted. (not posed) I've always wanted to get a cool "drinks" shot a bar.

This last shot sums up the couples feelings :)

SA Fashion Week

I photographed the "behind the scenes" action at Kluk & CGDT(www.kluk.co.za) show at the SA Sanlam Fashion Week Thursday 18 Sept 2008. It was held at the very cool Old Biscuit Mill (check out their cool website - www.theoldbiscuitmill.co.za ) At first being backstage it felt like it is going to be just shots of models getting their hair and make-up done, but then after a certain photo, creativity kicked in and I started seeing art in the whole process. I wanted to capture everyone involved not just models. At the end of the short night I felt really inspired and enjoyed photographing something different. I wanted to captured moments and details to tell a unique story. Now I would love to shoot Paris Fashion week!!!!

Family fun!

I was commissioned by Greg and Ann do do some family photographs the day before their wedding. I was fun to be creative with these as I don't normally get much chance to do family photographs apart from the ones done on weddings. I will post images from their wedding soon!

The brothers and sister!
