Adina had her Batmitzvah last night at the Capri Hotel in Savoy, Johannesburg; and it was quite a bash! Her mom booked me for this evening months ago, and in the build-up to it, I also did a portrait session with her and her family and produced a photobook which was used as a guest...

They are all such great photos but that one really speaks to me 
I can’t resist posting a few more of the workshop photos I took at Forum Homini. I’ve been editing more of them, in order to choose my favourites to submit for review by Dror and Andrea, and found more gems in the process. I also thought I’d show you some shots of the other photogs...

I’ve been asked a few times over the last few days whether Connor is ok, after those sad photos I posted on Monday, so I thought I’d show you that he was as right as rain Excuse the pun He’s not back at school yet, because he’s still on a diet with no fruit juice...

He seems to have a more relaxed and content smile and just loving the raindrops.
What a gorgeous photo of Connor and glad to hear (and see) that he is feeling better.
Seriously, I love this kid. The energy is totally amazing.
This might sound a little kiddish that too coming from a guy but I hope whenever we might have a kid, “This is the perfect model” 
Cool photo .. with the rain! Happy little boy today!
So glad he is doing well and what a cool picture with the rain.
This is such a darling shot. ♥ glad he is feeling good!
I took delivery of my first album this afternoon, and I’m so very pleased with it. Adina‘s mom ordered it and it contains all the photos from her batmitzvah portrait session as well as photos from every year of her life. It’s a book containing very many memories. It’s a leather bound book, only 15X20...

I would love to know where you got this printed? You can email me…thanks
I think it came out stunning, looks really good. what supplier did you land up going with? i want to make an album of my wedding pics and have only found Q photo that makes nice books
That book is awesome. Wow. You must have loads of killer photo albums! Just to let you know, I’ve added your link to Glossary. Thanks for popping in and for all your inspirational posts here. x
Photo books are really common here in the US, some better quality than others. Do you battle for suppliers there?
Your’s looks beautiful!
That is gorgeous I have never seen on e before
It looks fantastic! Cant wait to see mine.
I am busy with photobooks for every year of our lives (strating 2005 with the princess’ birth) – but it is a very long term project.
This looks fabulous – not sure if the place I choose will deliver what I want, but they did one for a friend that looks great.
Really lovely!!!
That’s a beautiful idea for a special occasion!
that’s beautiful!
the book looks lovely
Lovely, Jeanette!
That is lovely!
looks great ♥
