Yolandi & Rhett

I want to introduce you guys to two of my favorite people in the world, Yolandi and Rhett.

Yolandi and I met when we were 10 years old, and we've been inseparable ever since. Rhett, kind-of didn't have a choice but to love me as he was marrying my baby sister (we've always thought of each other as sisters). Luckily me and Lyle hit it off with Rhett straight away (I mean seriously who can't love this guy). And now I cant think of him as not being part of our lives.

I had so much fun on this shoot. I cant remember the last time I laughed that loud. We started off at a kiddies play area at a restaurant in Fourways and them moved over to Monte Casino. I really wanted to share all the pics with you guys but there were 200 so I had to narrow it down. These are some of my favorites from the day.

Ferreira Family

I was so excited when Delri asked me to take some photo's of her family. She recently had a new baby boy, Xanru and also have a 3 year old called Juwan. She and Morne really has their hands full with little Juwan, and I'm sure he is going to show his new little brother exactly how it's done. Luckily Grandma Annemarie and Grandpa Ignatius are always close by to lend a hand.


Meet Rossouw

Leon Rossouw Dreyer joined mommy Corlia and daddy Leon as the newest member of their family. He was born at 8:30 on 6 September 2011. At 3.27kg and 56cm length he is a very healthy little 'boertjie' in the making.

Congratulations you guys.

Hoffman Family

After Mary and Nico Pieterse's Pot Belly shoot and new baby Emily's shoot, Mary contacted me again to ask if I can do a Family shoot with her and Nico, her two brothers, Jacques and David, their wives, Daleen and Melani, and Emily's two cousins Heidi and Kylie and off course grandma Diana and grandpa Sias Hoffman. It was so much fun whenever I was shooting the 3 girls, all the mommies and daddies were jumping up and down and making funny noises behind me to get them to smile. It worked on Heidi , It sometimes worked on Kylie, But Emily was not fazed at all, she was probably thinking, "What family did I get myself into?" 


Thinus and Lana

I did a shoot with my brother, Thinus and his new girlfriend Lana at the Menlyn Drive In. It is so special to se two people so in love. I hope you guys never loose those butterflies.
