Modelling is all about looks and attitude… and “A” has tons of both   You need to be able to own a certain look and change in an instant.  A professional modelling portfolio is the most
important tool any model can own.  This is something you use to market yourself in any field of modelling.  Be it photographic, ramp modelling etc.  The challenge in photographing

professional models is to do something different and working in sync with your model.  You need to make them feel comfortable and sexy and this is when the true model will reveal themselves…  An awesome modelling portfolio speaks volumes about the model and the photographer.

My family has two family camp outs every year and this weekend we are having the first one for 2010….!  I am so excited, when I go camping my heart soars and I feel free.  Hearing the crickets singing at night while sitting around the campfire.  Snuggling into your sleeping bag in your tent.  These are the things that makes my soul blossom    I will be sure to post a few fodies once I return to the city of gold…

When I look at these photos I can still hear the girls giggling…  It made me think of my sister and I when we were that age.  You are laughing so much that your stomach hurts and yet

you cannot explain to any person why   The “H”s made me think of my family, a lot of people with their own beautiful language.  They have three conversations at a time and yet

everyone knows exactly what is going on.  This bunch was so lively I decided that the best way to photograph them would be Lifestyle photography here at the real life studio.  So we

made jokes, had everyone lying on top of each other and little “M” doing his signature model move (lying on his stomach next to whoever was being photographed…   )  For the Real Life Studio experience come and join us for a morning of family fun and laughter ( and gorgeous photos)

Looking at this beautiful smile just lights up my heart   O is almost 6 months old and can already sit all by herself, amazing isn’t it?  She and her mom have been visiting South-Africa

from London and they decided that they just had to get some beautiful baby photos taken to leave behind for the grannies.  This little baby girl ios a natural model, not once did I see

her start to fuss or cry.  She is absolutely contec about anything and everything.  I am so grateful your sister referred you to us, because these beautiful baby photos are yours to treasure forever and ever!!!

So you want to become a top model, but don’t know where to start?!  The best starting point is to get yourself a professional photographic modelling

portfolio.  This will be your image profile.  You can then send these modelling photos to prospective clients, modelling agencies and post them to the internet onto sites like modelbase where you can register a profile.  “A” has done some modelling in London for brands liek Diesel and Levi jeans

and upon his arrival back in SA someone asked him for a modelling portfolio as they want him to be one of their models.  So needless to say “A” came to the top model photographer he knew and we did a funky photoshoot.  So take the first step to greatness and contact us at info@louisedieselphotography.co.za for more details.

I am grateful to have an assistant working with me (even though it takes up more of my time, it has been a saving grace)  I am truly grateful for my family, who without their support I would never have come as far as I have.  And wouldn’t have been headed where I am headed.  I love my job and am truly blessed to do what I love.  THANK YOU!

What is it about babies that makes us smile…?  Is it the naughty twinkle in a baby boy’s smile or the rosy cheeks of an angelic baby girl?!  Somehow they spread joy and love wherever they are (well most of the time anyway   )  This little baby boy chose today to take a break in his routine by not taking a late morning snooze.  So he wasn’t too smiley when they walked through through our doors for their professional baby photos.  But in the studio we had no trouble getting him to crack a smile and laugh from his belly   Between Mom, Granny and me we know all the secrets to getting babies to laugh when they are having their baby photos taken.  Photographing babies is all about making it about fun and games, playing peek-a-boo behind a camera and much, much more!!!  I find that the more you smile when taking photos of babies the more likely they are to smile right back at you.  So just have fun!
