ABOUT

I was always told in art class that painting a self-portrait is one of the most difficult subjects to paint, and I guess the same goes for writing an "about me" page on a website! I'm a 28 year old professional photographer living in Cape Town, South Africa. I studied film production and marketing at the University of Cape Town before venturing into the realm of photography. I've been taking photos for roughly four years now and currently work as a freelance photographer and photojournalist.

It took me a very long time to start this blog, primarily because I was never happy with how my photographs turned out (perfectionist!) and I didn't feel ready to share them with anyone. But I've finally taken the leap and I'm loving sharing my images. Please feel free to comment on any of my posts or ask me any questions about my work. I'd love to hear from you.

I'm always interested in doing shoots of any kind so if you like my photographs and would like to collaborate or have me shoot something for you, please get in touch with me via email.
