Ruth du Toit & Family | Beach session | Struisbaai
In dreams and in love there are no impossibilities. János Arany
I made friends with Ruth from Ruth du Toit Photography at a SA Weddings Event in Johannesburg, and I have been following her wedding and lifestyle work for a while now. And amazingly when we were in Struisbaai, she said she will be there and asked if I would like to photograph her family on the beach...and obviously I jumped up and said yes...and oh she took some of my family as well!
See the photos Ruth took of our family here: CLICK
She has such a beautiful family and I just loved making them run on the beach. And what I love about those photos is that as a person you can't think too much how you want to stand or how you look....all you can think about is to run....so you look as natural as you can be and for me that is when you look your best. No pretensions...just fun and laughter with your family! Same goes for the jump photos!
Enjoy the photos and leave a comment at the end please!
Charlene & family | Mini Photo Sessions | Cape Agulhas Lighthouse
I had so much fun doing mini photo sessions at the Cape Agulhas Lighthouse! It is such a beautiful location and Charlene and her family looked absolutely gorgeous!
“Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family: Whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one.” —Jane Howard
Charlene said she does a photoshoot each year with her family, and this year she wanted photos in Struisbaai. Charlene and Jandre is from Namibia, and they are on holiday in Struisbaai with their kids.
Their youngest, Ethan, is roughly the same age as my son Lian...and wow...he is a brave and fearless little boy! Ethan was a bit ecstatic during the shoot...but that is what I love...I love interaction. It seemed Ethan liked me from the word go, because he came running after me and interacted so spontanuous in front of the camera! I just love the emotion is those photos...Charlene and Jandre got a bit anxious after a bit....and he got a hiding during the shoot...but I loved his energy! He reminded me of my son. He seem to be a go-getter and not afraid of anything. Just love his people skills...I mean he made friends with me, a total stranger, in a matter of seconds!
I just love to do shoots at the Cape Agulhas Lighthouse! So beautiful!

Mandie & family | Mini Photo Sessions | Cape Agulhas Lighthouse
I had so much fun doing mini photo sessions at the Cape Agulhas Lighthouse! It is such a beautiful location and Mandie and her family looked absolutely gorgeous!
In family life, love is the oil that eases friction, the cement that binds closer together, and the music that brings harmony. Friedrich Nietzche
I recently did a photoshoot with Mandie's sister Ankie for her Supper Club and when I advertised I was doing mini-sessions at the coast, that was when Ankie referred me to Mandie for a photo session.
Mandie and her family is from the Free State, and her husband is a farmer there. They were on holiday in Struisbaai and wanted photos done at the Lighthouse in Cape Agulhas, and wow...they looked smashing! I had so much fun....just love the ones with their little dog!

Lize & her beautiful family | Kleinbaai, Western Cape
I had a blast capturing Lize and her beautiful family in Kleinbaai. I didn't know it at the time of the shoot, but one of my school and Voortrekker friends is Lize's sister (Gerda), and she was my date to my Matric Farewell 14 years ago! Wow, such a small world!

Lize asked me to capture photos of her family while on holiday on Kleinbaai and I absolutely loved it! They are such a cool bunch of people....and good looking! The bond between sisters is so special, and I just love the photos of her and her 3 sisters. She currently lives in Zambia and it must be great to be together as a family in SA.

Kleinbaai is next to Gansbaai, and also close to Hermanus, and its a hotspot for Shark Cage Diving. Lize's parents have a holiday home in Kleinbaai, and we decided to take photos at Onse Baai, a spot where the ocean crashes over the rocks...beautiful!

Nico & Laura {family shoot at L'Agulhas}
Nico and Laura's family shoot at Cape L'Aghulas Lighthouse was just epic! I had so much fun!
I was on holiday but I decided to do a few family shoots at the beach seeing that we lack a beach in Johannesburg! So Nico contacted me and wanted to do a shoot as a Christmas gift to his wife, Laura.
I just LOVE this place!
We decided to go to the Lighthouse at the tip of Africa, the Lighthouse at Cape Agulhas, and this is not far away from where the Indian and Atlantic Ocean meet. The Van der Westhuizens always come to Struisbaai for December holidays, and it is a place that is known and dear to them. So I was privileged to do this shoot, and Grandma will just love the family picture she wanted to be framed in her house!
