What a gift it is to see ourselves in relationship with the people we love…
The artist in me strives to create something unique and exciting every time I pick up my camera. The parent in me seeks to capture and document the most meaningful and fleeting moments that occur during everyday life. My style represents this attempt to balance these two important aspects of photography.

It’s pillow fights with the kids, followed by tickles and cuddles. The way their little faces snuggle tightly into the nape of your neck and how they look at you when you laugh. It’s your life – in all it’s natural beauty.
Tarryn and I have known each other since we were 3 years old, and were in school together the whole way through. It’s wild that here we are all these years later celebrating her pregnancy.
It’s not been a straight road for this friend of mine, so it felt like a huge honor to celebrate her journey through this portrait session. She deserves all the brownie points, high fives, hand shakes and pats on the back.
Your world is about to change T 🧡🧡🧡
This little girl has been chosen for you - a Mom who waited and worked so hard to share her heart with her child.

December is just around the corner, which means it’s time to start planning those extended family photo sessions. If you’ve been thinking about it, now’s the time to reach out so we can find a date that works.
For the first time ever, I’ll be taking a little time off over the Christmas period to slow down, disconnect, and just be with my own family. December is usually such a whirlwind, and this year I’m hoping to soak in a bit more of the magic that comes with it.
Thank you to the Roberts family for inviting me to their family home to photograph the 3 generations at a place very sentimental to them all. @learningfromluke
I have another wedding for you to enjoy. This is Hannah and Jordy who came over from the UK to get married in the presence of family and friends. @theweddingcosa created a magical event at the @thegalleryweddingvenue in the KZN Midlands.
