Here at Louise Diesel Photography we specialise in capturing all the different personalities within a family unit.  We make you feel right at home from the minute you walk through our doors.  You literally become a part of our big studio family.  We laugh and joke you through the whole

photoshoot and before you know it we have captured timeless family treasures and it’s time for coffee.   Our photographers have a special way with kids and are able to make even the most cynical teenager crack a smile more than once…

The M family arrived yesterday morning super amped for their family photoshoot.  All of them even wore the same colour t-shirts  (I love it when people colour match for their family photoshoot!).  When having a special family portrait like this taken of your family, get everyone to

colour match , this gives all the photos a sense of  togetherness.  So make your booking today and come and celebrate family in our studios!

Boudoir photography has always been associated with a female bedroom, and at Louise Diesel Photography we specialise in elegant boudoir photo shoots.  Coming for a boudoir photoshoot is all about feeling comfortbale in your own skin and owning your body.

Models on magazine covers go through a whole process to make them look that good and you can too.  We will organise a make-up artist and along with low-key lighting make you look like the supermodel you know you are!

Every person is photogenic and it is up to the photographer to capture that gorgeous smile or demure sexy look. The following quote says it all:

”To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.”

Looking back I realize how much I have grown since September 2008.  Spiritually, mentally and also businesswise.  There is nothing in this world that can make you learn faster than being thrown in the deep end   This is where the good gets left behind and the excellent survive.  Part of this growth process was egged on by attendning a monthly networking function namely woman at work.  A network for female business owners to market and expand their companies as well as support fellow (female) business owners.  Every single person has somehow enriched my life and for that I thank you!!!  This is why I can’t wait to go to the first woman at work networking function of 2010 where Louise Diesel will be the guest speaker.  Somewhere in my head I hear the song”… I got a feeling…”

The Boudoir photoshoot was done very professionally. Riani’s calm and content personality makes you feel relaxed and confident with her ongoing compliments. Music was playing in the background which lets the energy flow as you start to relax and wonder into the beauty of your soul.

She gives easy guidance to poses, outfits and lighting to create the best masterpiece of every photo she takes. The studio itself was very private and stunning. It was a very fun photoshoot which I didn’t want to end. You are guaranteed leaving with more confidence. The end product is gorgeous, classy photos with very natural editing and a warm ambient feel.

Ladies, give yourself the gift of releasing your inner goddess – to use your photos as a Valentine’s gift is only an added bonus!
Thanx Louise Diesel Photography for this memorable experience!

MERRY CHRISTMAS from the Team at Louise Diesel Photography!!  We wish you and your family a happy festive season and a prosperous new year!

We are always telling you about our photography from our viewpoint, and I thought I’d share our unique photography experience from our satisfied client’s view…

Have you seen what beautiful works of art pregnancy photos are being turned into these days…?  Have you found yourself looking at someone else’s maternity pictures that is stunning and thought that you would love to have photos like these but you are sure you don’t look that good? Secretly you are slightly intimidated at the prospect of havning a complete stranger look at and take photos of your growing belly.  A felt exactly the same way and this is what she thought of the whole exciting experience:”

I’d never thought of doing pregnancy photos until I came across Louise’s website. The thought of having a complete stranger take photos of my naked belly was just too daunting for me. Against my better judgment I decided to do the photoshoot anyway. I was met by Riani at the gate, whom I think could sense my hesitation and made me feel soo comfortable with myself, my growing belly and the entire experience. My husband was even more anxious than I was, but Riani really capture the essence of who we are & the transformation that was taking place in our lives.I look at the photos now & feel proud to have gone through this experience as Riani capture the essence of my pregnancy. I would strongly recommend that every couple that is expecting to do this not only for themselves but for their children to appreciate in the years to come.”

Are you the proud mother of a very busy little boy (or girl for that matter)  Then you know exactly how hard it is to try and go anywhere with your kids and keep them on their best behaviour.  Don’t worry about it, we have worked with and photographed almost every kind of child you can imagine…  Bouncing all over the studio and being very shy all included.  M has 3 little boys (aged 5 and 5 and 18 months) and this is what she thinks of her pics:”

I take my hat off to Riani on how she handled our boys during the shoot!  She took the most amazing photos, even though our boys were all over the place.  My husband and I would recommend Louise Diesel Photography to anyone.    There quality of service is superb and we all had such a good time!  Thank you Louise and Riani!

Every girl dreams of meeting her dream man and riding into the sunset…  So once you’ve met that special someone and gotten engaged you simply cannot wait to get started on planning your wedding?  Isn’t it so?  But as soon as this early excitement wears off you realize exactly just how muchhow much detailed planning you have to do…  At the end of the day no-one will remember what table decorations you had at your wedding (even though it took you a week to decide and source all the items  on the centerpiece)  This is exactly why it is essential to find a good wedding photographer with whom you feel comfortable with and will be comfortable having them capture every moment and details of your special day.  C and S sent us this lovely testimonial:”

Your wedding is one of the most important days in your life, and there are so many details to worry about to make your day perfect.But thanks to Louise & Riani, my wedding photo’s were one less thing to worry about as they took care of it all. They are so professional and caring, and helped make every moment of my special day come to life! The variety of photographs was amazing and choosing for my album was the hardest part as all the photo’s were stunning.The album turned out to be even more beautiful than I had expected and I am so grateful to Louise Diesel photography for leaving me with the most beautiful, cherished moments of my wedding day! ”
