After my hike up Giants Castle a few months ago I knew I could do this more often. Hiking is not something I have always been keen on doing but now that I have done it, Im hooked!! Just like that my entire perception of "hiking" in the Berg has changed. Sitting on the edge of a cliff 3000m high above the clouds is just indescribable, almost magical. Awesome weekend spent doing … [Read more...]

I always … [Read more...]

There is one word that sums Kayla up, natural. She is such and easy person to work with and it definitely shows in the photographs! Ben Myburgh and myself discovered this amazing spot in Westville to shoot but we going to keep that a secret!

Shooting a concert has got to be one of the most rewarding things a photographer can photograph! I mean you are shooting in such harsh lighting conditions, with bright lights to deep blacks. It's the balance between the two that is just so satisfying. I had the privilege of shooting the Durban leg of Avicii's SA tour, which brought a few thousand people to the Wavehouse. The … [Read more...]
On the 7 March 2012, Cosatu held one of the biggest nation wide strikes in their history. Over 30 000 supporters in Durban alone marched on City Hall! I had to get in on the action, shooting a strike has got to be one of the best things a photographer can experience. I mean you imagine 30 000 people singing the same song and marching towards you, it is indescribable, the sound … [Read more...]
After living in Port Edward for 10 years of my life it was awesome to shoot a wedding in my hometown.

I headed over to the Estuary to shoot the venue, decor and of course Richard & Raquel getting ready. I was amazed at how relaxed everyone was, … [Read more...]
