Photographer in the making »

Remember last week, when I posted the photos that Bradley took?  Well, Connor gave it a bash this week.  LOL, not really, but he was pretending that my tripod was a camera.

“Now it’s my turn”

Taking a photo of the flowers. LOL, not sure why he put the lever in his mouth everytime I told him to take a photo :)

An attempt at Xmas portraits »

I should have waited until Lance got home I suppose, but I was as impatient as ever.  OMW, what a disaster.  LOL!  It was impossible to get Connor to sit next to Bradley and get a photo of both of them.  So instead, I tried to take photos of them individually.  It still wasn’t perfect, but I think I have a few that I’ll be able to design a nice Christmas card with.

Bradley was easy!

I managed to get these 2 of Connor which are the only decent ones (I can’t decide which one I like more)

… before he threw the hat in disgust and started chanting “NO”

Open for business »

You may have noticed that I’ve updated my site.  I’ve added 2 new pages at the top, one explaining my rates, and the other contains a contact form and other contact information.  I took on board all the suggestions made on my last post about rates, and I’ve finally decided what I’m charging.

So officially, as from today, ta da ta daaaaa…. my photography business is open for business!

If you know of anyone in the Johannesburg area that’s looking for a custom photographer to capture those special moments with loved ones (no matter what age), please tell  them to give me a call :)

And because I can’t possibly post without showing a photo, here’s another fun one from the photoshoot on Sunday…

A family photoshoot for Sue »

I met Sue and her family yesterday in a park close to where we live for this photoshoot. I really enjoyed myself, and I hope they did too.  They were so easy to work with, and helped me a lot with the setup of the shots, and worked quite hard to keep Josh smiling!

Hope you like the photos Sue and Dave!

Baby Emma »

Here’s a sneak preview for Natasha and Graeme.  Hope you like them.

I took these photos this morning.  It was my first newborn shoot.  Emma is 10 days today, and is very wide awake already.  The ideal time to take newborn photos is when they’re sleeping, but this little one only dozed for about 5 minutes.  I didn’t get to take the curled up photos that I wanted to get, but I’m quite pleased with the results anyway.
