Loved meeting this gorgeous couple.  It was an absolute feast to work with them.  I am forever thankful to the person who referred them to me and to my friend Michael for this awesome location.  For sure my new favourite photography spot!

We planned for one session but due to the weather, turning out be such a blessing, decided to do a retake.  Both were gorgeous and created unique images.

‘The wonder of God’s creation’, no better words to describe these images. From His hand that created all of nature, to the wonder of new life expected.

We are facing such unknown, uncertain times today.  It is easy to be overwhelmed by all the negativity.  Then days like these lift your spirits and make you excited about the future.  Thank you dear Daniel and Chrizandré for an awesome session.  Little Abby is a blessed little girl to have parents like you awaiting her arrival.

Garden Route Mossel Bay Maternity Session – Inge

Maternity

Taking the time to do a bit of a personal project is always rewarding! Inge only wanted a few studio portraits to remember this precious time of expecting their first little one. I asked her to extend the session with a bit of a project for me. The recent fires in Dana Bay was scary and tragic, I am also a Dana Bay resident and was directly affected by this. I do believe that one should rather focus on the positive than the negative. Thank you Melissa, you were such a great sport for helping me! Makeup by Gabriella Netto.
