About Me

I am a mother of three boys (three boys, being punished for my sins!) and have been a fan of photography for years. I started shooting weddings seriously about five years ago. With the arrival of my twins, I decided to reduce my working hours in order to spend more time at home with my boys. Using photography to make up for the loss of income was a natural progression.

This is where you will be able to catch regular excerpts of what I am up to...

David Beckstead, I've mentioned him before, the international wedding photographer that specialises in destination weddings and has won many awards, he held a workshop in SA in November. Well a while back David set up a website www.admiredbybeckstead.com to showcase wedding images from around the world that inspire him. There is no commercial reason, it's just a showcase of cool wedding images that inspire him personally. In his own words: "This site is for juicy photographers only! All boring 'sit in the box, untasty' photographers need not apply" "You can't pay me to put one of your images here, I decide what I like" I am incredibly flattered to announce that David Beckstead has chosen one of my images for this exclusive collection. http://www.admiredbybeckstead.com/?i=421 liza-david-blog14.jpg

I must admit I never thought I’d see a site with great wedding photographers around the world where Sergio from Amorphia, Jerry Ghionis and Anna Kuperberg were featured.. and little Ol' Andrea Carlyle from South Africa….maybe David made an error? Keep checking the site to see if my pic is still there!
