What is Lifestyle Photography?| Family Beach Session | Sedgefield

SPOILER ALERT: This post gets a little geeky so if that’s not your thing and you’re only here for the pretty pictures, ignore the words and simply enjoy the photographs. Most people are a bit vague about what Lifestyle Photography is and often confuse it with Photojournalism. Let’s compare the differences. PHOTOJOURNALISM - Photojournalists tend… Continue reading What is Lifestyle Photography?| Family Beach Session | Sedgefield

Slice Of Life Session | Cola Beach | Sedgefield

I know I’m always saying, “I love when dot-dot-dot happens” or “My favourite dot-dot-dot is this or that”, but jokes aside, Slice of Life family sessions are really one of my favourite sessions to photograph and such fun because honestly anything goes and it's a golden opportunity to capture spontaneous moments. The reason Slice Of… Continue reading Slice Of Life Session | Cola Beach | Sedgefield

Family Photo Shoot | Brenton on Sea Knysna

Cornel booked this photoshoot with me because she, hubby and their three teenage sons live on a farm and two of her boys were moving far away to study and she needed some updated images of them to hang on her walls as a source of comfort when she was missing them, which of course… Continue reading Family Photo Shoot | Brenton on Sea Knysna

Toddler Birthday Session | Sedgefield | Turning 2 is not easy

This recent session was a first for me. A photoshoot for a toddler turning two years old. Big learning curve. Big. Huge. I'm not really one for props during a family shoot but for this one we had a ginormous birthday cake (that Mom brought), a combination of pink, blue and white helium balloons, soapy… Continue reading Toddler Birthday Session | Sedgefield | Turning 2 is not easy

Group Family Session | Sedgefield Beach | Messy Beautiful Chaos

The grandparents booked this session, they wanted a reminder of the entire family on holiday, at the beach and having fun. Granny had plans for a group photo with wooden blocks that spelled out the family name but things did not go as planned...

Family Session | Cola Beach Sedgefield | Cloudy Summer Day

“I found that each time a test was negative, it stopped the dreaming and hoping for a while. Taking the test was a way of puncturing the balloons of hope, because if I didn't, they would lift and lift without any evidence, and their falling back down every month was too painful. Essentially, I took… Continue reading Family Session | Cola Beach Sedgefield | Cloudy Summer Day

Sunset Family Beach Shoot | Platbank Sedgefield

During this entire photo shoot, all I could think was how wonderful it must be to be loved so fully and completely by not just one but two Moms. This young man is an extremely fortunate fellow to be part of this beautiful, happy family. Absolutely one of my favourite shoots to date, they were… Continue reading Sunset Family Beach Shoot | Platbank Sedgefield
