What’s in store for 2017?

Wow, it’s already the 6th of Jan and I haven’t had a chance to post ! Just like 2016, the year is already flying by and all I can do is hang on tight and focus on the future! I thought I would share my top shoots for 2016 as well as a few goals for…

Street Style with @bakedtheblog & @WayneParnell

I captured this street style shoot for Aisha & Wayne recently. Aisha used these images to feature Wayne as her MCM here. I loved this location (you may recognize it if you are a frequent Bree Street visitor). I loved how the location spoke for the both of them – highlights of pink to represent Aisha and…

#bakedtheblog & @Nike

This is probably my favourite shoot with Aisha this year – I know I say that very often but if “you’re only as good as your last shoot” then its a good thing that every future shoot is my favourite. I learnt this quote while studying photography and it has stuck with me, adding pressure…

@bakedtheblog #OOTD

I was excited to shoot with Aisha again, we have both been busy traveling and running our businesses that our schedules have clashed a few times. Finally we had the chance to shoot together and meet up to discuss some exciting ideas for Aisha’s blog this year. We cannot wait to share the news! I…

Purple hues with @bakedtheblog

Aish and I shot this outfit while on a lunch meeting a while ago. She posted this outfit here where she had some amazing recycling tips for recycle week. I loved shooting this soft, flowing dress. Its nice to embrace some femininity every now and then. I’ve been shooting such strong, fierce looks in the CBD…

@bakedtheblog & @hm

Aisha and I shot this beautiful dress on our way to lunch recently. I really loved the wide, open space of this story as well as the bright orange and green colouring. The blogger outfit trend at the moment seems to be very monotone so Aisha and I rebelled and shot in a harsh sunlight…

exploring with @bakedtheblog

The Baked the Blog team went for a lovely lunch at one of Aisha’s favourite places last week. I am so glad that our family has grown and am so excited for what Aisha has planned for this year! Aisha and I have been so busy lately, we hadn’t shot in quite some time. It…

Fashion x Fiesta

Many of you may not know that my craze for cars, fashion and photography comes from way back in my family history. Sometimes I feel like I simply cannot help it, it is in my genes and it is meant to be. My great Grandfather worked with Ford for many years, he was a mechanic and…

@bakedtheblog – waves of winter

  Aisha and I were interviewed on Goodhope FM early one weekday morning. After the interview we photographed her outfit as the storm clouds rolled in. We captured her winter outfit against a dramatic stormy backdrop and finished shooting as the rain started to pour! For those of you who would like to listen to…

@cottononbody & @bakedtheblog

I shot this story for Baked the Blog recently. We were extremely lucky with the weather because when Aish and I met to discuss our ideas, she said she wanted a misty morning shoot. I laughed and told her that it will more than likely not be misty so she should not get her heart…

Autumn Light

Aisha and I shot this look on a typical Autumn day in Cape Town. The day began with a cold, thick mist and  became the most gorgeous sunny, hot day. I loved the pink and brown Autumn hues we captured by shooting at this location. We kept our shots and poses very simple and straight…

Team @bakedtheblog at American Swiss

I attended an American Swiss event with Aisha Baker who is now one of the American Swiss Influencers (So proud!). We viewed the trends and products for the season while answering the odd question for spot prizes. I won a stunning pair of ear rings which I have been wearing almost every day (below). The trends…
