When I do family shoots or shoots of children I always go to the people’s house. I find it works much better, especially because the kids are much more relaxed in their own environment. For a photographer it’s also much more interesting than a studio, because each house is different and you have to be creative with what you have available.

It’s a great outing [...]
My boyfriend iaan started training kickboxing 12 years ago. He is not actively fighting anymore, but is training at home in his free time.
I’ve never done a shoot with dogs before, but I had a client that wanted some portraits taken of her 2 dogs…and these were my favourite…

This is my last week in Dubai and then it’s back to South Africa for me. I’m quite looking forward to starting the next season of photography. But this last week I’ll just be chilling out with my mom in Dubai. The other day my mom took me to the Bastakia in Bur Dubai which is one of the city’s most picturesque heritage sites…it was around 50 degrees outside with high humidity, so these photos are just a few ones I could take before I almost fainted :)
