Pregnancy | 32 weeks | the birth

the birth 23 weeks; 6 December 2011 Every mom-to-be sets out on a mission to have a natural birth, as if there are other options!! 😉 I have to tell you, things happen for a reason. At my temp job I was privileged to meet a wonderful Women by the name of Avis; a Sister, a Midwife, a Doula. Those who know me well know that when the day came I was sure as hell NOT pushing it out! It scares the living daylights out of me! Honest to God. There is not a day that goes by where I don’t think about it and fear it! Avis, passionate beyond words about women, birthing and babies! If it were not for meeting her, I would still be hell-bent! For sure! She has the most incredible passion and love for her work. And it can only be this passion that swayed my thinking. Me, yes, me. Terribly stubborn, me.

A Celebration | Saralyn and Marcin | Tie the Knot!

The gorgeous Saralyn and Marcin tied the knot at the stunning Kronenburg Wine Estate in Stellenbosch this December. Heathyr was kind enough to drag me *literally* along again 😉 What a stunner of a venue! An outdoor ceremony in their amphitheatre and straight next door to the reception in their very spacious dining hall. I think the photographs tell all… ! Enjoy!

Patenoster Travels | Patenoster Dunes Boutique Guesthouse | Cape Town Photographer

On a recent Wedding venture I found myself in the gorgeous little town of Patenoster, up the Cape West Coast. What a G.E.M! A very tiny little fishing village in nowhere land… ahh Gorgeous! I am so in love. Not much seems to happen in this town except some weddings and well, fishing… 😉 On a breakfast invite, myself and Heathyr (my grand prof. photog :D) paid a visit to the Patenoster Dunes Boutique Guesthouse and of course the sucker I am for decor and pretty thing that I can photograph… huh, breakfast?! oh yes, that is why we are here right… In an attempt to remain composed I quietly ate my breakfast and admired my surroundings, and then snuck in a few shots…. 😉 Quickly! Seriously NEED to go back there!!
