25 days till Christmas

Above and below: Marche (7),Leah (3), Luke (16 months)

mommy's big girl Marche

It's December 2010! Were did this year go? I must admit,this year a worked like a slave! Many late nights,but it's all worth it in the end.

One evening last week I decided I'll have to at least get my kiddies in some Christmas outfits and take some photo's of them. It was extremely difficult trying to get them in a good mood and smiling. Luke (16months) is at a stage where he just doesn't want to sit still and my poor daughter Marche (7) had to grip him for every shot LOL. I took a record breaking of about 80 shots in less than 15 minutes. I could only use about 20 of the 80,but it's all worth it.

Christmas is about giving not receiving! Be blessed this Christmas and love unconditionally!

Maternity Photo Shoot - Sanchia & Gerome Johnson

I met this lovely couple the weekend I exhibited at the Baby Expo Cape Town last month. They contacted me a few weeks ago and wanted to book a maternity photo shoot before their little one arrives. The couple doesn't know the sex of the baby,I take my hat of to you for not finding out what the sex is,because so many people these day's are going the other route.

Here are some of the images I took while they were there. Enjoy guys! Good luck Sanchia with the delivery! You look amazing! Thank you for choosing me to capture this amazing time in your life for you!

On Saturday Charl and I headed of to Bloemendal Wine Estate to shoot and witness the wedding of Monique & Robert.

Monique is every photographers dream and not once did Charl or I have to suggest things like poses or anything to her,she's a born "model",and a very beautiful bride!

We did some shots at her sister's home in Plattekloof Cape Town before heading of to the Fire Department in Durbanville.....where the guys at the Fire Department were super friendly and in awe of this bride hanging off the fire truck and posing with some of their gear :)

Robert & Monique said their vows and off we went to Bloemendal were we also did some shots in the vineyards etc.

Robert & Monique....thank you very much for choosing us to capture this special day! You guys are super awesome and we had a fabulous time with the 2 of you!

We wish you loads and loads of happiness for the many more years to come.

Here are some of the pics i took!

Enjoy!

The 3 Pretorius sisters!

I bought myself the Nikon 50mm f1.8 lens last week and just had to try it out in the studio! I just love how sharp it is. My models our 3 girls Cameron,Marche and Leah were more than happy to smile for the camera.(my son Luke were far to busy recking the whole house to also join in the fun.....LOL,but that"s probably what a 16month old baby boy does.......EXPLORE!

My husband Charl http://www.pretography.wordpress.com/ and I also shot Monique & Robert's wedding at Bloemendal Wine Estate on Saturday,and I shot the entire wedding with my new little "baby".I just LOVE LOVE LOVE the lens.

I will be posting some of the wedding pics in the course of the week,so make sure you come back to the blog and have a look at my SUPER awesome pics. Just a little teaser.........we had the bride pose on a Fire Truck :)....SO much fun!!!!

Happy blogging!
