About Me

Thanks for popping by my blog!! I am a photographer who is crazy about all things photography. I especially love taking pics of gorgeous preggie tummies, newborn and infants, and children. Here on my blog you'll find sneak peaks of my client's shoots, as well as personal photos of my gorgeous three boys and my sweet little girl... who lived 491 miraculous, wonderful days, a testament that Trisomy 18 is not "incompatable with life".

{A boy is a-coming} - Maternity , Newborn Child Photographer Durban Ballito

Meet C. She's a mum of two gorgeous girls... and is about to welcome her son into the world. We're all very exited about the arrival of this little cherub... I'm sure no more so than Mum & Dad & Sisters... but still :)

And the best part? I get to take his first professional pics. Yay! Can't wait.

Beautiful beautiful C, and her PERFECT belly..

{Baby J} - Newborn Maternity Child Photographer Ballito Durban

Meet Baby J. He is three weeks old. He was a big baby weighing in at 4.4kg! And yet... so very small. Everytime I hold a newborn baby, it strikes me how tiny these sweet little angels are... and how very quickly they grow. Every second is special... every moment new and amazing. Wow!

Baby J was a superstar. Mum listened very well to the rules... but when he first arrived, he was not having any of this sleeping nonsense! But after a little coaxing, and a little rewarding :), he let us play.

And then, to end the shoot, Dad and big brother came to play too. I was really proud of baby J... he did well, and so did mum for being so so patient.

And without further adieu:

"I am my BELOVED's.... and my BELOVED is mine" - Song of Songs 6:3


To me, there is no greater connection than the connection that is God Inspired. God Ordained. As it is for marriage. And so, being part of watching the connection between a married couple- the beautiful, deep connection... *sigh*... it's such a privilege.

My best is seeing what the husbands bring along- how wonderful it is to see men who stand up for their wives... who care for them, love them, cherish them. And how beautiful to see wives that honour, respect and love their husbands. Our roles are so clear- and so beautiful when fulfilled.

Yes... I am my BELOVED's and my [BELOVED] is mine.

The start of this shoot saw us arrive to the most beautiful rainbow. Thank you Lord! What a way to start such a special photo-shoot. There were laughs. Lots. There were tears. Some surprises. Oh, and in all my excitement I even provided entertainment for the evening by falling off a bench. Charming! And of course, I took FAR too many pictures. But it was worth it. Oh! So worth it :)

{Baby C} - Newborn Child Maternity Photographer Ballito Durban

Meet Baby C. He came 3 weeks early, much to everyone's surprise, and yet still weighed a healthy 3.4kgs! He was so sweet, and perfect, and good as gold. I could've photographed him all day... which, incidently, I nearly did :)

Thanks, mum and dad for being so patient. Your little boy is gorgeous. And here's your sneak peek:

{Many Faces} - Baby Child Newborn Photographer Ballito Durban

These are cousins.... sweet little 3 month old... and, about to be born (today actually), baby cousin. Mom wanted a pic for granny of the cousins together, whilst one was still in the tummy... so sweet xx

The precious little girl had a myriad of expressions and noises. It was a delight photographing her. And she's going to LOVE having a cousin only 3 months younger than her. I grew up with all my cousins... they were my best friends, and some of my best memories I share with them. I remember building mud dams, and mud castles, tickling each others backs to sleep, making up musicals to perform in front of our long-suffering parents.

Childhood is a wonderful thing: and made all the better shared with cousins.

{Beloved}

Wow! What can I say?! This was an amazing shoot for me. Getting an opportunity to document the realness of the relationship of these dear friends of mine.

Really, this photo shoot was such a privilege. And the outcome for me? Beautiful, REAL pictures. There are just so many beautiful pictures... I have chosen only a few, so that D&T get to see the rest first :)
