Update...

Hi there all...
so I guess I have not updated my blog for quite some time now hey... let me see, what excuse can i use for me being so slack... uhmm.. well no excuse comes to mind, it's just that i've so busy with work lately (not that i'm complaining), and then there's little Daniel as well that keeps us very, very occupied. Every time I get to look after Daniel he gets a free photoshoot, he's 5 months now, weighs 6.3kg's and has a photo catalogue of 3000+ pics.. (not just snapshots)...

isn't he too cute???






There's been a few weddings

Daniel at 2months







Daniel has been growing very well and he is a healthy young man.. i mean baby boy.. (can't wait for when he's all grown up)

He is 2 months old now and his delivery day was today! (04-04-09).. this would have been very close to my birthday :-)
I don't think that Chantal would have been able to handle all the pain that she had until now!! We are so glad that things happened the way it did and we are very grateful for having our cute precious little angel with us. I love this boy so much and only want what would be best for him... I guess that's how all parents think but I have big expectations for our son and I will surely be there every step of the way to make sure that he achieve his goals... (or will that be my goals???) I guess not, but I will definitely guide our boy in the right direction. My biggest aim will probably be to make sure that he get exposed to the latest high-tech gadgets and technology from an early age... these are things that really interest me and I think it will be very advantageous in the future.. who knows where technology will lead us to in the next 15 years...??? ask Daniel a bit later on, i'm sure he will look up from his touch screen notebook and give an answer that will amaze you... :-))

I wonder if he will ever be as passionate about photography like I am??? I guess I will just have to influence him in his early years.. :-))
Can you imagine a 7 year old at a wedding being the second shooter, armed with the latest Canon camera, shooting away and charming the ladies at the same time...?? now this will be history in the making I tell you... there's always a first for everything.. :-))

Daniel's last day in NICU...






It's been a while since I last posted some pics of Daniel... have been very busy lately (work and Daniel)... going to bed at 04:30am and getting up for work at 07:30am ain't the easiest thing to do... :-(

Here is some pics of Daniel just before he was released from hospital, 4 weeks ago...
Since then he has gone for an eye test, with good results, he has been to his first paediatrician visit, everything there went ok and he has been picking up weight at a good pace. His last recorded weight was 2.84kg at 6 weeks.. he should be close to 3kg's now... he will go for his next weigh-in next week.

Everything has been running smoothly thus far.. both me and Chantal are very happy about this. Daniel is the sweetest baby boy ever!! of coz he has a few up and downs, but nothing to complain about. We love our boy to bits and enjoy seeing him grow day by day... he sure is going to be one fine handsome teenager... but for now we are just happy with him still being our little baby.

Valentine's Day Wedding, Anton and Janice


Beautiful Cape Town couple, Anton and Janice-Lynn tied the knot on 14Feb '09 in the stunning setting of Fernkloof Nature Reserve, Hermanus. The entire day was filled with love.























I strive to capture all the special events and precious moments in my unique photo journalistic style thus ensuring natural looking photographs.

My passion lies in capturing all the elements that tell a complete and original story of the wedding day, from the once-off moments shared with family and friends,



to the smallest details that has been planned for this special day.
