Doing studio photos of my girls in the past has been like pulling teeth. I avoided it for as long as possible but unfortunately too much time has passed without me taking any decent pics of them.

A few weeks ago Emma and I decided to give it a go. We were determined to get some photos done, come what may, even though the prospect was daunting. We prepared as well as possible, not forgetting chocolate bribes and promises of Santa’s forthcoming visit.

Thankfully it seemed be easier-going this time even though I had moments of uncontrolled crying and gnashing of teeth. Most parents know this well. Those that don’t either drink to much or not enough.

We persevered.

We are happy with the results – so pleased in fact that we ordered a couple of ‘Acrylic Lifestyle‘ products for the girls room and an extra one for the studio.

Check out the images and let me know what you think. All opinions welcome.

Georgina, owner of and master stylist at Sugar Plum, produced a competition worthy hair style that demonstrates their commitment to quality and excellence in hairdressing.

I had the pleasure of photographing my twin brother’s wedding in Cape Town.

This wedding was guaranteed to be a visual feast, set against the stunning backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean and the picturesque and exclusive Camps Bay ‘The Twelve Apostles‘ hotel as the venue. It didn’t disappoint.

Despite the strong mountain winds forcing us to move the wedding inside, the very intimate ceremony proceeded without a hitch.

The reception followed at dusk and a candlelit marquee tent welcomed us to a romantic evening and beautiful conclusion to the happy day.

Laurette, the beautiful bride was radiant and looked stunning. My dashing brother completed a perfect picture of a beautiful couple. I am privileged to photograph the happy event and to share their special day amongst friends and family.

Phoebe-Leigh, Rhys and Ashleigh were delightful. We played in the park – on the swings and slides – until we took a well-deserved break for some ice-cream. This was followed by hide-and-seek at the old fort after finding and exploring some hidden treasures in the park.

The twins are a delight and inspirational little people.

We enjoyed cucumber sandwiches and tea.  The majority of it ended up in my lap as it was my turn to be fed by the girls .

They subsequently took me on a guided tour of their playground – pointing out the moos on the adjacent farm and hand-holding me through the obstacle courses.

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of shooting Helen as part of this and I wanted to share a short video featuring a small selection of images captured during the day.

Check out what Helen had to say about the shoot and the images.

Enjoy!
