I photographed this Easter-inspired look with Aisha recently and have been dying to shoot a full black & white story. I took this opportunity when she showed me this all-black outfit. We both wanted to shoot something with strong lines, high contrast and also in a neutral location as the outfit has details that cannot…

Dercia’s Graduation
Lately I have been photographing alot of Matric Dance outfits, I think it is because I work with alot of bloggers which allows people to believe that they can approach me for photoshoots other than fashion and model portfolios. I find alot of people telling me that photographers are unapproachable. People battle to contact photographers…
REHORP – using talent for good
Last week I visited the REHORP horses in Phillipi, Cape Town. I visit the area and photograph the new horses as they arrive to be rehabilitated and re-homed. I have met such lovely personalities throughout my two years of working with them. Last week I met two ex-racehorses, one so big that I could not…
SAFW – my experience
This post is a little delayed but I would like to share MY views in SAFW anyhow. It was my first trip with the Baked The Blog Team and I was very excited to be a part of the SAFW experience. Our trip was a quick two day job where we tried to fit in…
The Dance
I was lucky enough to be a part of Bilquees’ special day and photograph her matric dance experience. I have photographed alot of matric dance dresses lately and I enjoy it as it is a nice break from the usual work and the girls always look tooooo beautiful! Bilquees looked absolutely gorgeous and…
Summer vs Winter hues
I shot this wintery look with Aisha recently and she released it today, on a cold, gloomy Monday in Cape Town. Aisha and I loved our dark, reflective location and I made sure I shot at a low light allowing all of the textures in the dress to show. In post production I added a…
Clare
I recently shot with Clare to update her model portfolio. She wanted something very casual and warm. Here are a few edits from the shoot: We had an amazing team and perfect weather. Thank you to Portobello Road for supplying clothing and accessories for this shoot!
Sivu’s Photoshoot
Sivu and I have been trying to organise a photoshoot for almost a year now, we have both been super busy and our shoots are always cursed by bad weather, but finally, our day arrived and all was perfect! I have found that I have been needing an assistant more and more lately and this…
Yoh! The texture!
I attended an event at The One & Only Hotel last week with with Baked The Blog. On our way to the Pool House we stopped at a few places and took these lovely images of her outfit. There is something so real about shooting quickly and spontaneously. One is able to capture the person’s…
Desert Dreams
I finally got to shoot at this location with Aisha Baker and we had the perfect outfit to compliment it! I had been begging Aisha for months to shoot here and was over the moon when she told me she had the perfect outfit for it! On the day it was a little bit cloudy…
Valentine
Aisha and I seem to be on the same page when it comes to Valentines Day and opted for something a little less cliche than the obvious red hues, hearts and chocolates. Now, we all know Valentines Day is NOT the same without roses so we decided to include them in our location rather than…
Beetles and Baseball Caps
Aisha and I shot this lookpost last week when we met for a meeting at The Alphen. We spotted this Beetle and had to use it as a prop. It complimented her outfit and really gave the shoot some character. I have been shooting sneaky videos to compliment her lookposts lately, what do you think?
