Unlike some other lucky people I didn’t know that I was going to be a photographer  one day.  It was a real slow build up and now there is nothing else in the world I wold rather be.  I wanted to be a veterinarian all my life and then I wanted to be a psychologist.  I got my first digital camera in std8 and took a real great pic with it in st9 in the Drakensberg.In my matric year I always took my mom’s camera to school with me cos I thought I would be able to get cool photos because everyone usually freaks out in their final year.  All my friends told me that I should become a photographer  and I was like:” Is there even a profession like ‘being a photographer’?From there it kinda grew in me.  My sister-in-law then brought home the number for a college that teaches photography and the next thing I knew I was enrolled as a photography student at the National College of Photography.  And I have never looke back.  I specialise in people photography and portraits.  I absolutely love photos which portrays fun bantering and sibling rivalry in families because we all know what it’s like.   This is one of the traits of a family unit.  So welcome to my world where I use my skill, expertise and creative intuition to create memories to las you a lifetime!!
