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...

What an amazing, glorious wedding Carl & Desirée had! They held the ceremony on a hilltop, overlooking the spectacular Namibian landscape, which seriously felt like the top of the world - absolutely breathtaking!

 

It was my first visit to Namibia and I was overwhelmed with how many spots I wanted to drag everybody to pose for photos...

 

It was amazing - inside and out. A rustic, African bush wedding with an intimate feel to it!

 

Words will, once again, not be able to paint this picture, so hopefully the photographs will do a better job.

 

Thank you Desirée & Carl for an unforgettable experience!

My first attempt at a panoramic shot, four photographs stitched together, just to show you the setting. 

At the time I couldn't understand why we had to drive so far to the ceremony, until we got there, and I saw the view.

Those not in the know, Desiree's veil, thanks to the wind, got caught in the thorn tree. I had to plead for her to leave it there just a little longe, so that I could get the shot.
