so...

the crazy season has come and gone, and with it the sure knowledge that it is not called the 'crazy' season for nothing.

in between xmas shopping, i had loads of shoots. loads of blog guilt - so i need to make up now. and make up i will!

this is the lovely ELECTRA. she got a shoot voucher for her birthday, and decided that a friendship shoot would be fun. and fun it was!

tiniest little being ... bloemfontein newborn photographer

2011-12-18T07:10:00.008+01:00

how blessed am i?
amidst this crazy Chirstmas photo rush - i got to play with this tiny little being.
by far the smallest baby i've ever handled.
she was in a hurry to come into this world - she surprised her mum at 34 weeks. she's now only 2 weeks old (or is that young?)
and already stolen countless heart.

meet Summer-Lee. she's bound to bring a lot of joy into everybody's lives.

2011-11-13T13:59:00.009+01:00

every now and then, to feed my soul - i have to do something for me.
JUST for me.

this was it.

2011-10-22T18:53:00.004+02:00

so i have this little problem...and one could call it indecisiveness:
i can't seem to decide on what i like most.
when i do teenagers, i like them most, and think: this is it.
then i do couples, and it's the same thing.

let's not talk about when i do maternity. i LOVE those shoots.

i've done a wedding or two and thought - yes! i LOVE weddings.

then it's families, and seeing the interaction: love that too.

and then there comes a day when a little bundle of gorgeousness arrives at my door, and i swooooooooooon...literally.

and then i think (yet again) you guessed it....this is it.

i'm SO indecisive.

but can you blame me?

Pyjama party

2011-09-29T18:05:00.005+02:00

we spent an awesome afternoon enjoying gifts which my bff sent us from portland, oregon.
we did all sorts of frowned-upon things. things we don't usually do. we hung around in jammies, we jumped on beds, we squealed in delight, we rolled on the grass. it was awesome.
it was just being.
it was us.

thanx for that Darice. we love you madly and miss you more.

...well...

SUCH a sweet little chap!

2011-08-28T19:52:00.004+02:00

ok, on a scale of 1 - 10 just how cool is this little dude?

i met him when he was a baby, and i had the honour of meeting up with him again recently. he's only 3, but SO full of personality.
he gave me a good workout, might i add!

just look at him:

the bad blogger

2011-07-04T17:14:00.009+02:00

...the bad blogger...that's me.
i admit it.
i've just been so busy lately, getting back into the swing of things.
and this ice cold winter that we're having isn't helping things much.

on the upside tho, i'm fully recovered from my op (yay me!!) and i've photographed some really awesome families lately.
honestly, every time i think the kids can't get any cuter, they do!

here's one of the gorgeous families i had the good fortune to meet

out of action

2011-05-02T11:08:00.007+02:00

i'm out of action for a while.
i had an op, and i'm housebound for 6 weeks. i thought the rest would be good, but lying (literally) around the house is not my idea of fun.
i miss being outside.
i miss my cameras enormously.
i miss my pc.
i miss my car.
i miss my independence.
in short...i miss living.

but i'm 2 weeks in already, and that leaves me with 4. i'll make the most of them, and really rest, now that i'm a bit more mobile. and only cringing in pain several times and hour and not constantly. lol

here's some pics of my gorgeous baby girl, taken on holiday last month.

next post, God-willing, will be from the shoots i have lined up when i'm back on my feet

Beach Shoot...bloemfontein portrait photographer

2011-04-08T17:55:00.006+02:00

so i was fortunate enough to go away on holiday for 10 days, to the sea.
now that in itself is exciting enough for a famiy who live more than 6 hours away from the closest beach!
top of my list, (after relaxing, reading, reading, reading, sun and sand and more reading, was beach shoots.
how lucky was i when my niece, the gorgeous nella, joined us for a few days.

i think i need to move closer to the sea...

...this is a world filled with love & other things that have the sense not to waste time talking about everything under the sun & see how it glows with no help from us whatsoever...brian andreas

First Boudoir shoot...bloemfontein boudoir photographer

2011-03-24T16:39:00.008+01:00

i met up with these lovely ladies a couple of weeks ago.
to say i thoroughly enjoyed the shoot, would be an understatement!
so i'm definately looking into getting more into this type of thing.

is there anything more beautiful than a woman with confidence, and with the knowledge that her body is gorgeous?

life...bloemfontein children photographer

2011-02-20T10:57:00.005+01:00

life holds special magic
for those who dare to dream...

- flavia -

i can only hope she'll continue to dream big, this child of mine.

how sweet

2011-02-14T06:57:00.003+01:00

can you be at 4 weeks?
THIS sweet.
this little lady was such a pleasure.
not a single peep out of her throughout the whole shoot.
what a little blessing ♥

another lovely family

2011-02-06T14:45:00.004+01:00

that i got to spend time with...

some families ♥

2011-01-27T20:24:00.002+01:00

...are just perfectly perfect together...and it's just such a priviledge to get a glimpse into their lives

two words

2010-12-09T07:31:00.001+01:00

[insanely gorgeous]

that's all i have to say

From me to you

2010-12-05T20:03:00.000+01:00

merry xmas

gigantic

2010-11-21T09:18:00.001+01:00

gi-gan-tic [adj.] exceedingly large of its kind; very large; enormous

i have this amazingly talented photography buddy [krissy allori] , who on her home page, has a photograph of her daughter blowing a H U G E dandelion.
i've been drooling over that dandelion for months now. wishing that i could find one of my very own...dreaming of the photographs i could take...but alas...it was not to be.

not so folks!
low and behold...from the backseat the other day, i hear this excited screaming ~ might i add it almost caused me to roll the car:
"MOM!!! there's GIGANTIC dandelions! A whole field of them!"
again, i almost rolled my car in sheer excitement!
i've been brewing my photos in my head all week, and then i found the perfect spot, and i was lucky enough to get the perfect light too.
and *this* is what i got:

thanx so much for stopping by and letting me share

no, no ... i have not disappeared

2010-11-15T13:02:00.001+01:00

from the face of the earth, contrary to what you may have thought.
i have got some good excuses tho:

firstly, i had a little foot op about 8 weeks ago. that set me back weeks. walking on crutches and being a helpless patient certainly does not become me!

then after that, raymond (my dear husband) and i, went on an all-paid trip to Phuket and Singapore. it was heaven, fabulous, marvelous, divine - well you can just think up all those adjectives and insert HERE.
it was *that* nice.

so...i finally got back into the swing of things on saturday, with my first client shoot in months.

i must admit, i almost got a tad nervous. lol. but once i got rolling, it was like riding a bike.
i had a great time photographing this cutie potootie.
you can see why.
she was just a whole lot of cuteness and pink girlishness, rolled into one tiny body.

erm....so....i've fallen in love

2010-09-19T21:25:00.002+02:00

and here's the object of my affection.

i think people must think i'm weird when i post pics of my own children and call them 'divine'.
i mean who does that type of thing? not many people i know of. no-one in fact.
but that's what they are, they're divine. i always thought it it was only my own kids.
but then *this* came along.
and she's divine.
really.
i'm offering life-time babysitting. i can't help myself. i'm smitten. i am.
but t'is ok. she's a family friend. not a client.
and boy, is she divine, or what?

here she is at just 6 little days old.

and she came at 13 days, and gave me this

can you see why i'm in love?

some families are just meant to be

2010-09-11T11:20:00.001+02:00

and this is one of them
you can just see the love. they're fabulous! they have this awesome togetherness thing going.
one day when i'm big...

and then of course some of my own divine little lady.
here's me playing around with light.

...do they get any sweeter than this?

2010-09-01T20:25:00.000+02:00

no really.
this little doll was a real angel.
blue eyes...blonde hair. she really fits the bill.
she has a lovely brother too.
she takes the word 'edible' to new levels!

Yummy Mummy!

2010-08-22T19:58:00.000+02:00

here's a gorgeous young couple who are about to become parents.
this young lady is very close to my heart.
good luck you two
♥♥♥

can't wait to meet baby!

what would i be?

2010-08-15T20:43:00.000+02:00

what would my photography be, without this marvelous child?
she's always up for a play...my sweet girl.

...just me

2010-08-04T21:43:00.000+02:00

going texture mad again...

another gorgeous little one

2010-07-26T22:09:00.000+02:00

i tell you, i must have THE best(read gorgeous, amazing, adorable,beautiful, sweetest, most delightful, super, lovable, charming) ...erm...i think you get it, little clients ever. EVER.

a real sweetheart ♥♥

can't believe she's grown so much since her newborn shoot! and she was prem to boot. she was so eager to meet her mommy, she decided a maternity shoot was not on the cards.

she's lovely. she really is.

oh. my. soul.

2010-07-21T19:54:00.000+02:00

2.5kg of pure gorgeousness.
this little baby was so eager to meet his wonderful parents that he came 6 weeks early.

he is totally tiny.
totally beautiful.

he is just D.I.V.I.N.E

simply divine

“Walk a little slower, Daddy”,
Said a little child so small.
“I’m following in your footsteps,
And I don’t want to fall.

Sometimes your steps are very fast,
Sometimes they’re hard to see;
So walk a little slower, Daddy,
For you are leading me.

Someday when I’m all grown up,
You’re what I want to be;
Then I will have a little child
Who’ll want to follow me.

And I would want to lead just right,
And know that I was true;
So, walk a little slower, Daddy,
For I must follow you.”~author unknown

fabulous sessions

2010-07-19T23:10:00.000+02:00

i have been so busy lately, but i can say that i am having a FABULOUS time.
i've had some of *the* most awesome sessions
really i have.
i am so blessed to see bumps grow into newborns, and newborns grow into one and two year olds. honestly. i love when my clients come back.
here's a session i did a couple of weeks ago.
i only just got time to blog now.
a couple more sessions to edit, and then i'm officially up to date.

isn't this a beautiful bump? (how come i always get the gorgeous ones?)

thanx for letting me share such precious moments of your lives.

the best thing about photography?

2010-07-07T20:26:00.000+02:00

well, for me it has to be meeting new people.
new, awesome people.
and getting to know them through the years? well...that's even better.
this little baby was a bump when we first met. no wait. she wasn't even a bump. she was just a dream.
her big brother was a newborn. and THEN she was a bump. and a beautiful bump at that.
then a newborn.
and now look at her...just as gorgeous as ever, and a whole year old already.

i love how these little people are growing up in front of my eyes.
and i love that i get to see it.

oh! and did you notice the new logo and banner?
i'm *very* excited about it!
i worked for days on that logo, and finally, when i was getting despondent...it came to me at 12am whilst in bed, and i just HAD to get up and work on it.

it's me.

now to get working on that website...

there's some good in everything

2010-07-03T08:41:00.000+02:00

so...since my backup camera got stolen 2 weeks ago, i decided to go big and get a new camera rather than a new backup. *evil, evil grin*
thank you mr. thief ~ you pushed me into getting my first full-frame camera! woo hoo!! (even tho i still wish the fleas of a thousand camels infest your crotch and your arms are too short to scratch);)
got her yesterday and rushed out in the fading light to take her for a test run.
i think i'm going to love her and she and i are going to have a marvelous relationship!
♥♥♥

...she's got the look

2010-06-26T19:45:00.000+02:00

...hasn't she just?

Honour to shoot

2010-06-16T19:25:00.000+02:00

it was a real honour to shoot this family.
i was in durban for a couple of days, and met up with an old friend.
aren't her kids gorgeous?

meet beautiful michael

2010-06-06T20:16:00.000+02:00

...just a perfect little baby.
all of 6 days old.

Babies are bits of stardust, blown from the hand of God.
-- Barretto

A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"

"Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."

The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."

God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."

Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"

God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."

"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"

God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."

"Who will protect me?"

God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking it's life."

"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."

God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."

"You will simply call her, 'Mom.'"

a beautiful belly

2010-06-01T17:14:00.000+02:00

this is *such* a beautiful belly!
i canNOT wait to meet the little person that is hiding in there.

yes...i DO still take photographs

2010-05-02T21:16:00.000+02:00

...i just don't blog as often!
here's my latest family shoot - i couldn't not give them a sneak peak
what a lovely family they are

it's official...

2010-03-29T21:46:00.000+02:00

i am definately the world's worst blogger...
and i mean ever...ever.
i'm baaaad
this session was ages ago. if you could see me, you'd see i'm blushing.
lol

anyhoo, t'was loads of fun!
this young lady (one year old, to be exact), was introduced to me as a bump, and then a newborn, and now look at her.
who would've thought she can *actually* get any cuter?

...just for me

2010-03-22T20:08:00.000+01:00

finally! i got a chance to get out there and do something for me today...just for me.
here's my lovely niece, who never says no. (aren't i blessed?)

and that which cannot remain silent.

...a thousand words

2010-03-18T18:02:00.000+01:00

a picture really does speak a thousand words...

i was honoured to be asked to take the photos of a Shavathon taking place at my son's school, in support of a Grade 5 classmate, who is in Cape Town at the moment, undergoing a bone marrow transplant.
the support for this little boy, by his classmate and teachers, was overwhelming.

a very moving and humbling experience for everybody involved.

even the headmaster took part

the onlookers were enjoying the show

the girls were not as brave, but brave enough to go pink!

a wedding of note

2010-03-01T20:49:00.000+01:00

i was fortunate enough to take my sister-in-law's wedding photographs on saturday.
the wedding couple are out visiting from LA, so it was quite a privilege to take these.

a perfect venue.
a perfect day.
and an even more perfect evening.

good luck you two! altho i don't think you need it. the love just shines through. and with that type of love, you're sure have a long and happy life together.

congratulations once again.

you can leave your hat on...

'bout time i'd say. lol
this was taken in the eastern freestate. *such* a beautiful part of the country
and *such* a gorgeous family

Introducing Ryan

2010-01-24T20:54:00.000+01:00

the newest edition to our family.
he is the sweetest, tiniest little baby.
not a murmur from him...and being his aunty, i really took advantage.
he was *such* a pleasure!

Twin bump

2010-01-12T06:55:00.000+01:00

i am a bad, bad blogger.
i'm still 5 sessions behind with my proofing, so the last thing on my mind when i finish a session, is to update my own blog.
and not only do i forget to post to my own blog, but i forget to check everybody else's
*blush*
this little boy will soon be a big brother to twins.
how exciting! he's the sweetest little thing, and is going to make a fabulous brother!

this little bump

2010-01-02T19:04:00.000+01:00

will be joining our family in a week or two

wOw!

2009-12-17T15:54:00.000+01:00

that's all i can say.
no wait. there's more:
natural, gorgeous, amazing, beautiful, great
need i go on?

i just LOVE this pic

2009-12-14T21:03:00.000+01:00

Wedding peaks

2009-11-30T20:27:00.000+01:00

here's a couple of sneak peaks of the wedding i did on saturday.

it was *such* a special day, and i was truly honoured to be a part of it.

D & E~ may your life together be as beautiful as your wedding day was

Photoshop overload

2009-11-15T16:43:00.000+01:00

hee hee ~ every now and then we're allowed to go photoshop wild and play around with different effects and colours, that we wouldn't normally do.
sometimes they look good, and sometimes they don't. but we have a license to play!

here's the gorgeous daniélle in my very own wedding dress.
i tried a mini trash-the-dress shoot.
didn't want to trash it too much tho, since you never know...miss tía might just want to walk down the aisle in it, one day

4 weeks prem

2009-11-08T20:02:00.000+01:00

aw man! the sweetest little thing! wide awake through most of the shoot, but she did sleep eventually, and i had the time of my life!

Another gorgeous young lady

2009-11-05T21:14:00.000+01:00

i must admit, i really enjoyed these pre-matric farewell shoots. this young lady was really beautifully gorgeous

i am indeed, still alive

2009-11-01T18:52:00.000+01:00

just in case you were wondering.
it's just been h*e*c*t*i*c at the moment - we revamped at home, and that took longer than expected. it also took more out of me than expected, but i won't go there now. lol

here's the beautiful nicci, just before her matric farewell
i've known her forever, so it was quite weird to be taking photos of the little girl i used to know, who is now a gorgeous young woman!

a 19-day old bundle of gorgeousness

2009-09-20T09:56:00.000+02:00

man! isn't he just beautiful?

what a beauty!

2009-09-15T19:43:00.000+02:00

ah man! this little 6 weeker is gorgeous! and such an easy little angel - i recently posted the little bump she came from. she was beautiful then already

Engagement shoot

2009-09-08T08:06:00.000+02:00

i'm doing my first real wedding in november, and i've been kinda nervous about it, till i did D and E's engagement shoot ~
they're *such* a fabulous couple to work with.
So comfortable in front of the camera - they're just naturals!

Testing my new lens in studio

2009-09-02T22:06:00.000+02:00

i have a feeling this will quickly become my favourite lens!

2009-08-29T13:05:00.000+02:00

this one was just for me

2009-08-18T16:57:00.000+02:00

AT LAST!!

2009-07-14T20:15:00.000+02:00

i have been *literally* dying to get a pose like this! but i've never had a young enough baby.
here's this little bundle of gorgeousness at 8 days old.
she is the sweetest little thing!
what a lot of fun i had playing with her!

two oldies

2009-07-01T10:30:00.000+02:00

two really old pics.
i posted these on a photog forum i chat on, and i told the girls that these are the pics that got me started.
some of my first that i really liked.
i tried different processing on the first one. i kinda like the old look!
both photos taken with my powershot S1 IS
this one was in 2006 - och! look at her. she was just a baby then
and this one taken in 2005 - he was still a little, little boy.
now he's almost taller than me *sob* (ok, that's not so difficult tho, hey...?)

stinkin' cute!

2009-06-14T20:39:00.000+02:00

man! these sisters were a hoot to photograph! the little one was killing me with cuteness.
just take a look at her!

and her older sister was not far behind!
what a fun shoot for me.
and of course the typical desi b&w moody pics

and one *just for me...
this is the older sister.
aren't they both beautiful??
