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.

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!

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!

Enjoy the photos and please leave a comment at the end!

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!

Arno vd Westhuizen

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!
