Apple has been quite consistent in the past few years since their release of the first iPhone that they release a new version of the hardware each year around June. There was much hype and anticipation for the latest release ... the iPhone 4. It was to be completely redesigned with a new stylish, more contemporary finish and an improved camera which would capture video in high … [Read more...]
White Family

I had the pleasure to being able to work with this wonderful family this morning with both older kids being rather photogenic - if only their older son would allow me take his picture. He kept on playing the game of hiding his face but luckily we managed to coax him into looking at the lens for enough shots to capture those amazingly playful eyes! Their daughter, in contrast … [Read more...]

If you're looking for a getaway to the bush, experience some amazing game sightings and have some five star luxury thrown in for good measure, I'd seriously recommend Nambiti Hills Private Game Lodge in the Nambiti Game Reserve just outside Ladysmith. The team at Nambiti Hills cannot do enough to make your stay amazing and the food is fit for a king - make sure you keep room … [Read more...]
Out of the Urban Box

I accredit a great deal of my success as an architectural photographer to Metropole Architects as it was Nigel Tarboton, one of their senior architects, who gave me the initial boost, a good few years ago now, in giving me opportunity to photograph one of their completed homes. I have never looked back and love the capture of architectural design. It just so happens that, to … [Read more...]

What draws me with childlike excitement to the amazing experiences of the photography of architecture is ultimately great architecture. The homes designed by Feeu Architects, part of the Extra Dimensions Property Group are sensational, extremely photogenic and provide for some interesting imagery. What I really enjoy about these homes is the workmanship and finish of the … [Read more...]
Hello Charlie Brown!

When I photograph a building and the fantastic interior decor that accompanies it, my aim is to always capture it in the best possible light. At times some of the light with the greatest mood is during or just after a storm - or in this case it's during a quick period that the rain took a break from the torrential down pour we've been experiencing over the past few days. It was … [Read more...]
In a Different Class

I know I've said this before and I'll say it again! I do get to see some amazing homes and beautiful buildings but this particular home on the South Coast of KwaZulu Natal ranks up there as one of my favourites by top architects Atelier and Associates. The flow and style of the home, the architectural elements and well thought out finishes were fantastic. The whole place … [Read more...]
Ballerinas – Double Trouble!

Loved the opportunity to photograph my daughter, Nasia with her best friend, Rebecka, who was on her way to perform at her year-end ballet concert. The 2 girls had a great time performing for the camera. It was great to get familiar with the studio environment setup here in Churchill Road, Durban. Anyone want to get some studio pictures done, I need practise. Give me a call and … [Read more...]
On Eagles Wings

This sure was a home filled with class and simple elegance. Set in the rolling hills of Zimbali Coastal Resort with views across the valley and interiors superbly implemented to this modern contemporary home. The interior work was done by Nicky Fraser of Fraser's Interiors. My favourite room of the house was the daughter's room - I'm sure most little girls would love to call … [Read more...]
Contemporary Balinese Villas
September 27, 2010 by 2 Comments
A few months back I got to shoot a showcase for an interior decorator of a home which was built by the Extra Dimensions Property Group and designed by architect Theo Coetzee. I loved the architecture and contemporary style right from the first entry of the home. I then arrive at the these 2 Balinese villas overlooking the 12th green of Zimbali golf course and immediately … [Read more...]
