About Me
My journey into photography began with my deep love for animals. From a young age, I knew I wanted to work with them, trying various paths until I discovered my true passion — photography. It all started with horses. As an equine photographer, I found that my years of owning and working with horses gave me a unique perspective in capturing their grace and essence. This connection allowed me to develop a distinctive style that became recognized within the equine photography community.
Not wanting to limit myself to a specific niche, I expanded into pet photography. My understanding of animal behaviour has been invaluable in capturing the personality and charm of each pet, creating images that truly reflect their spirit. This part of my business has grown significantly, and I’m incredibly grateful for the support and friendships that have come from it.
But my journey didn’t stop there. Over time, I discovered a deep love for the broader creative and design industry, which naturally led me into lifestyle and branding photography. What started as curiosity quickly became one of the most fulfilling parts of my work. I fell in love with helping brands visually tell their story — creating intentional, authentic content that aligns with their vision and connects meaningfully with their audience. There is something incredibly powerful about helping a business show up confidently and cohesively, and I’m passionate about crafting imagery that not only looks beautiful but also supports growth.
Alongside branding, lifestyle photography has captured my heart in ways I never expected. I adore documenting real moments — families laughing together, couples celebrating milestones, friends soaking up golden hour, and individuals stepping into new seasons of life. My style leans into warmth, authenticity, and connection, focusing on images that feel natural and emotive rather than posed and forced.
Living in Cape Town has also opened another beautiful chapter in my journey. I have grown to absolutely love photographing tourists who are visiting this incredible city and wanting their holiday memories documented. There is something so special about capturing someone experiencing Cape Town’s magic for the first time — the mountains, the coastline, the sunsets, the joy. Being trusted to preserve those once-in-a-lifetime travel memories is an honour I never take lightly, and it’s become a part of my work that I truly treasure.
As my business has evolved, so have my skills. I’ve expanded into videography, offering short, engaging clips tailored specifically for social media. In today’s digital world, motion content is powerful, and I love creating cinematic snippets that complement my photography — giving brands, families, and travellers dynamic content they can share and relive over and over again.
From horses to households, from personal brands to global visitors, my journey has been one of growth, creativity, and connection. And I’m so excited for everything still to come.
A Few Things You Should Know About Me
If we've only just met, here's a little glimpse into the person behind the camera...
-
🐴 I've shared over 19 incredible years with my mare, Flame Dancer (Flicka). She's taught me more about patience, trust, and reading body language than any photography course ever could, and she's a huge part of why I specialise in equine photography today.
-
🐶 I'm completely obsessed with pugs. My two little sidekicks keep life entertaining every single day and remind me just how much personality can fit into such small dogs. They're also the reason pet photography feels so close to my heart.
-
🌅 Golden hour is my favourite time to photograph. There's something magical about that soft, warm light just after sunrise or before sunset. It's the beautiful glow you'll notice throughout much of my portfolio because it creates timeless, natural photographs that never go out of style.
-
📚 When I'm not photographing, you'll usually find me lost in a fantasy novel. I love escaping into imaginative worlds, and I think that's one of the reasons I enjoy storytelling so much through my photography too.
-
☕🍷 I'm always up for a good coffee mission... or a wine farm adventure. Cape Town has some incredible cafés and wineries, and exploring new places is one of my favourite ways to spend a day.
-
🌿 I find inspiration almost everywhere. Whether I'm driving through the Cape Winelands, walking along the coastline, or watching light filter through a forest, I'm constantly imagining how I would photograph that scene if a story were unfolding there.
-
🖋️ Yes... I'm covered in tattoos. Every one of them tells a story or represents a meaningful chapter of my life, which probably explains why I'm so drawn to photographs that tell stories too.
-
💛 My biggest compliment isn't "Your photos are beautiful." It's hearing a client say, "That felt so natural," or "You captured us exactly as we are." Because that's always been my goal—to create photographs that feel honest, genuine, and unmistakably you.
At the end of the day, photography is about people, relationships, and preserving moments that become more valuable with every passing year. I feel incredibly grateful that so many people trust me to tell their stories, and I never take that privilege for granted.
