I’m going to let these ones speak for themselves. Go and eat cake at Nice. Make sure you eat brekkie there first. Then have lunch. And stay for tea and cake. I love this place and the beautiful creative women that run the joint. Thanks ladies - let’s do this again soon! You can see more of my images on Nice’s social media accounts.

I shot this fantastic event at Katy’s Palace Bar in Sandton for Shackleton Whiskey. Great to see the images and this article published in Whiskey Of The Week in the UK https://whiskyoftheweek.co.uk/shackleton-blended-malt-whisky/
This concept and activation space is set in the heart of bustling 4th Avenue, Parkhurst, Johannesburg. Through engaging demonstrations, tasting and sharing you can enjoy learning valuable tips from behind the bar that can be replicated at home. This is a regular commission for RockingChair and such fun to shoot!
I’ve had the joy of watching (through my camera) this beautiful family grow over the years. Loved capturing their youngest daughters Matric Dance recently.
What a joy to photograph this place in every season. These are the early Spring 2018 shots for Glengarry Holiday Farm - my family’s favorite place to rest and rejuvenate. The views of the surrounding Kamberg and Giants Castle are majestic and breathtaking. Watch the sun go down from your chalet while you braai and your children play on the lawns in-front of the river. Whether you are looking for an action packed holiday of outdoor activity or simply to relax in rustic tranquillity, Glengarry Holiday Farm offers a spectacular Berg experience for friends and family. Glengarry is a nature lover’s paradise and a sports enthusiast’s playground. Go visit their website at www.glengarry.co.za
I shot these two beautiful women from The Resolution Choice for their new website. The Resolution Choice is a dynamic family mediation duo. They specialise in divorce mediation and in family dispute resolution. Find them @ www.theresolutionchoice.co.za
Lee-Ann is one of my favorite makeup artists to work with. We first worked together eight years ago on a car commercial. I was heavily pregnant with my son. It felt so beautifully full circle to photograph her and her husband just before they're about to welcome their first-born son into the world. We shot amidst the glory of Parktown's autumn trees - all morphing with the turn of the season in yellows and oranges. So lovely.
Last month at Blank - SPIRIT OF RUM, SOUL OF SUGAR CANE. I loved the gorgeous mural on the wall. Loved the tones and colors and had such fun trying my hand at art directing this shoot - laying out bottles and props, lighting cigars and styling rum shots.
Six really good creative and digital marketing minds in Johannesburg, South Africa have joined together to form a new and exciting partnership - The Digital Alliance. It was a treat to shoot this team on a cold and wintery Jozi morning...
I last shot with this dynamic team from Every Nation in winter 2017. It was such fun to be with them again and witness the buzz and activity that happens there on a Sunday as thousands flock from all over Johannesburg to be inspired and encouraged in their faith.
When you think of Russia, a few things always come to mind. Amazing Vodka. Fuzzy hats. Chill. Interesting food. Words you can’t pronounce, besides water with a v, and we’ll have that too, with a twist – obviously. Russian style, and now football obviously.
So where will you be when your team wins the big game?
It’s Game on at BLANK Bar, With Russian vodka cocktails, perfect serves, stocked bar and food menu to enhance the full viewing experience.
Their mixologists will impart some of their tips and secrets to their gorgeous Bloody Mary or maybe its a Dirty Martini you're after? Bond would definitely approve There’s even a Hot Toddy for those extra cold Jozi nights. Ask their mixologists what the secret is to making the perfect Moscow Mule, and as always, you can download all their cocktails off the Blank Bar website to try at home and become famous for your new skills with your own friends and fans.

Blank's latest offering (read pop up bar) is East Meets West. This is Japanese Whiskey at its best. This is compliments of Blank:
"Emerging from the East, comes some of the latest head-turning whisky sensations, which are changing attitudes and creating quite a stir.
With craft and culture permeating through all aspects of Eastern life, their whisky is no exception – as they take on the same craftsmanship and precision you would expect from anything from these honourable lands.
Even though they have been producing whisky for nearly a century – fairly unbeknownst to most of the people outside the country – we are now starting to savour this mastery in its true form.
Blank invites you to sample liquid artistry as we serve some inspired cocktails (which will even convert the “non” whisky drinkers), high balls and the perfect pours, sampling Nikka – Japan, Kavalan – Taiwan & John Paul – Indian
Not straying far from tradition delicious Don bowls (similar in appeal to its well-known cousin, the Poke bowl) and warming Miso soup are perfect a compliments as you taste, sip, experience and learn more about this fascinating beverage.
Remember our mixologists are there to share and impart some of their knowledge – so don’t be afraid to watch, ask and then download all our cocktails off the website and try them at home.
BLANK HAI"

The South African Image Academy (SAIA) is one of the country’s most highly regarded image consulting training institutes, offering a wealth of skills, knowledge and materials to all those eager to reinvent not only their career, but also their personal style. I had the privilege of photographing Alette' Winckler and her team in action as they trained a group of women at the gorgeous Morrels in Northcliff Johannesburg.
This is one of Jozi's trendiest streets (4th Avenue) and Botanist is her hippest, new venue. Looking to hire a space to throw a party? This is the place. I just love the tiny details and the beautiful Tanzanian doors at the entrance. The bar area is great space too. So classy and such a treat to shoot. Thanks Vix and Taryn - you two are a force!
