When I was still in the engineering field, I use to work in the same building as Thiemo and Minette and often saw them in the hallways.  When I saw them today, especially Minette, I was just blown away….this was one hot couple.  When I started shooting them together, I soon realized why they are […]

Marylin Monroe is not dead….and she is here in our valley…at Grasslands. For a few moments, I was completely dumbstruck…that’s how beautiful Audri looked when I entered the bridal suite for the pre-bridal shoot.  I’m sure you will agree when you look at the images.

I recently got some new fast glass and Louis & Charlene’s wedding was the first one with the new toys. If you’re not a photographer, you probably won’t have an idea what I’m talking about….don’t worry….it’s just the lingo we togs use. “Fast glass” means a lens that can shoot in much lower light levels […]

One thing I have come to realize when working the couple during a shoot, is that if you don’t ask for something…..you won’t get it. It was raining on and off during our couple shoot and I loosely suggested that we move the red couch from the study to the living room for a better […]

Brian & Yolandi couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day to get married on. The weather and the venue was just perfect. They also gave me lots and lots of time to shoot them. And the longer I shoot, the better the images. Enjoy.
