Just another fantastic morning on the KZN Coast where the wind, swell and sunrise combine to turn on the magic once again. … [Read more...]

Some friends of mine, Ciske and Tinus, were keen to come up with me to the cocktail bar on top of the Roma Revolving building. I think on Tinus's part, the lure of the bar may have been more of a driving force than the view! However the area is only open on a Friday and Saturday to patrons and we had to content ourselves with some magnificent scenery instead. The view from … [Read more...]

It is always a gamble waking up early and heading down the coast to find some perfect waves but some days you win while others you try to forget. I spent a few hours the night before trying to decide and eventually made a decision to just go. I got up at 4:20am(actually woke up at 3:30am but couldn't go back to sleep in case I missed my alarm) sneaked through to the lounge … [Read more...]

Ridwaan and Aysha asked me if I would do their photoshoot for them on their honeymoon in the Drakensberg. No problem. I spent most of the day in the the car but it was worth the drive just seeing the breathtaking scenery of the berg once again. Wow we live in s special country. Unfortunately we picked the hottest day for the shoot along with a clear blue sky which may … [Read more...]

It's taken ages but the consistent land breezes that blow in the mornings in KZN during winter are finally here. If I walk out the house in the morning and feel a cool, fresh breeze on my face then my surfing brain automatically kicks in and I can just imagine perfect lines rolling in on the coast, it's not always the case but the mind can play funny tricks. The toughest … [Read more...]

Kyle was born two weeks or so premature and I knew he would be small but I have forgotten just how small babies can be(you wouldn't think so after having three of our own). Even his baby grows which were the smallest sizes were way too big. Anthony had even bought a superman baby grow for Kyle to come home in from the hospital but as you can see in the pic it was just too … [Read more...]

It is always a pleasure catching up with the Dowden family after all the weddings we have shared together. Brad was heading back to the UK and at the last minute they all decided to have some portraits done on the day they were leaving. Unfortunately Miller took ill the night before so it was a struggle for him, it's hard enough smiling in front of a camera on a normal day … [Read more...]

The weather looked promising when we left Durban on route to Providence in the KZN Midlands for Thomas and Janine's wedding, if any thing it was too hot. Fern however gave us some warnings that the weather was going to change quite quickly in the afternoon and hoped that we would finish the photographs early before the garden festivities were abandoned but luckily it held out … [Read more...]

I take for granted the job of the car guards down at the beach front area in Durban. I, along with many surfers, cyclists, runners, etc, just pitch up at the beach and dash off to go for a surf leaving my car keys with the car guards without giving it another thought. This can be from 4:30am or 6pm and they are always there. I have not had any incidents since they took … [Read more...]

Over the past few weeks I've been busy doing shoots with models, and have finally had a moment to sit down and blog about it. First up we have Jessica Shuttleworth and Duncan Meyer, of S.I.D Photography fame. Jess was absolutely amazing to work with and I was very happy with how the shoot went. Duncan wanted in on a few photos so he could practice his modeling (I'm kidding) and … [Read more...]
