Table Mountain maternity shoot

Sophie and Yonathan

Table Mountain was a gorgeous backdrop for Sophie and Yonathans maternity shoot.  This beautiful couple are from Ethiopia but met each other in California, USA, where Sophie was studying and Yonathan was working in IT.  They plan on heading back to the States for the birth of their little boy.

Table Mountain maternity shoot Table Mountain maternity shoot Luckily, we had no rain on the day of the shoot although the wind pumped and was freezing!  Not too bad on the side of Table Mountain but the wind on Signal Hill was gale force!  In fact it was pretty scary!  It was a case of take a few pics and run back to the car, warm up a bit and then brave the elements for another few minutes.  I am pretty glad that we persevered as when Table Mountain lit up with the setting sun, it was pretty awesome.

Baby Bump Maternity shoot

Baby Bump, Baby Bump …seems to be that I am doing a lot of maternity shoots  at the moment.  But I am very excited as most of the Baby Bumps are from my past brides …it seems to have been a very productive year for my couples and it so special to see young couples take the next step and become families.  Gemma and Chris were one of my past bridal couples.  They were married at Nitida in Durbanville almost two years ago.  Gemma was my first bride who was ready before everyone else …if I am not mistaken she was almost 30 minutes early for the ceremony if not more.  And it seems her little daughter is in such a hurry as well …because even though her due date is only in about three weeks time …I believe she has been giving the doctors a few grey hairs by showing signs of arriving before she should.  As you will see from the pics …Gemma’s baby bump is not exactly very big ..so this little girl needs to stay put for a little while to gain a bit more weight!  She is definitely going to be like her mama.

I have always had loads of fun with this young couple.  Their engagement shoot was a lot of fun with powder paint!  See the pics here!  And their wedding was no different. Some of my favourite wedding images are from their wedding …Gemma rocked a sexy pair of red shoes at her wedding!  Take a peek here!  Their maternity shoot was no different …they were game for any ideas.  Not sure Chris thought he was going to trespass onto a building site …but so glad he got the gate open …definitely gave these baby bump images a different spin.

Anyway lets get these pics posted before the little madam decides she cant wait anymore…just like her sexy mama!

Meet my crazy, fearless friend, Adri!  Recently I was in Johannesburg for a corporate shoot and Adri was my partner in crime during my time up there.  I cant remember when I had so much fun …she is game for anything …and I only had to say I wanted to be somewhere and she was ready and willing to take me wherever!  We found ourselves downtown Johannesburg and I was dying to discover The Old Parktown Station …we did eventually find it …and to top it off …she allowed me to put her in front of my lens and be my glamour model….now, Adri is tall …I think she is about 6ft2 …so perfect model material!  I had so much fun with this girl from the “south” …she made me do crazy things that I would have thought twice about ….she had me clambering on top of rooves to get the perfect picture ….and this from someone who has a fear of heights ….I dont think anyone else could have made me do this!

]]> Wow …what a day we chose to do this family photoshoot.  We had already postponed their session once before because of bad weather and had almost waited a year to get the whole family together again…but this time they decided to embrace the Cape of Storms and have some fun with the shoot.  I love doing family photography as I either see how my own family was or how my own family will develop ….and with this fun group …I saw my own family ….one day my family will also be extended with daughter-in-laws and future daughter-in-laws….and I cant wait …it will be fun not to be the only woman amongst all the men.  Although I am sure Wilna & Vaz are waiting eagerly for the patter of tiny feet …they seem ready to become grandparents too ….but all in good time!  I must say I loved colour palette of the stormy Cape ….something a bit different …nature at her best!

Ladies if you want to put a private smile on their faces …this is the way to do it! A big thank you to Tanglewood, Wellington, for allowing us to do this styled shoot here.

I first met Tas, Dylan and Jack when I did Jack’s Newborn photography three months ago.  Tas asked me if I would be available when her sister, Yasmin and her little boy , Zane, came to visit from Hong Kong as she thought it would be really cute to take photos of the cousins who were born exactly a year apart.  Jack was a month early and by being a month early ..he arrived on Zanes’ first birthday …how special was that!  I have to say this is one gorgeous family!  The little boys are just so cute …as cute as little buttons.  Zane is the cutest 15month old and Jack is really so precious ….I love the photograph where it looked like he was giving me such a charming smile.  Zane is a normal active toddler and hardly ever sat still …but he gave us lots of laughs and giggles ….I especially laughed when i saw him do the laundry …apparently thats his favourite pastime …he loves loading the washing machine with all the dirty clothes and then taking them out and giving the clothes a good shake ….no lie …go look …I have captured it!  These family moments were really precious as they dont get to see each other too often ….oceans and continents separate but thank goodness for technology …as Skype makes it so much easier these days!  It has definitely made the world a smaller place!  Tas reckons i am now their family photographer …..I really hope so …cos i would love to see Jack become a gorgeous toddler like his cousin …these two boys are going to be heartbreakers!

Jayde is one of those type of girls …who is a good girl …she has a heart of gold …..and she was made Head Girl when she was at Fairmont High School …and I can just imagine that when she qualifies as a special needs teacher ….she is going to be an awesome teacher …but her friends also know that Jayde …can definitely party like the best of them.  I for one am looking forward to the day that she settles down and gets married …cos I can just imagine that is going to make a gorgeous bride …and i hope I get to take her wedding photos!!!
