ABOUT

My daughter once said to me “Mom, love is the closest thing to magic”.  When I am looking through the photo’s from a shoot and seeing the laughter & joy, love, strength, and the bonds that tie us radiating through the faces in my images – that feeling is pretty damn close to magic.

Born in Cape Town, I love portraiture but also enjoy dabbling with abstract and fine-art photography. I shoot using only natural light as far as possible.

My passion for art and creativity lead me to begin my working career as a fashion designer, but after many years I felt creatively stifled and at the ceiling of my place in the industry. I had begun photography as a side line and in 2015 I took the leap of crafting a new career in this field.

They say photography is a mixture of art and science. With a mathematical and analytically thinking mind but also a love for creating  is why this just feels like the perfect fit for my mixture of talents. In photography you never stop learning. Every time I shoot or edit I learn something new, it’s a never ending process of self reflection, development and improvement, there is no ceiling.

I love portraiture because I love the challenge of creating natural looking images showing real-life emotions and the spirit of the person, unforced and un-posed.
