In Morningside Manor, Sandton, Johannesburg but I travel throughout Gauteng for birth shoots.

Short answer: Creative. Vibrant. Storytelling.
Long Answer: My aim is to capture photos that tell a story, that are filled with raw emotion. I love to do this with a unique creative eye. I capture all the small moments that in years to come don’t seem so small at all.

First we have to get permission from your birth team. I will send you the form and at your next appointment you will need to get the necessary signatures to authorise me as your birth photographer.

Once we have this then a 25% deposit and signed contract is required to secure your booking.

The balance is then due 1 month prior to c-section/estimated due date.

It will take 2 – 3 weeks to receive your images and film.

Anytime within baba’s first month. This shoot is done in the comfort of your home so you don’t have to worry about taking baby out the house.

The best time is early in the morning when the light is still soft and beautiful and most kiddies are at the happiest early in the morning after a good sleep. If you prefer a different time of the day we can definitely change the time to suit your family. If the kids are a little older and do fine in the afternoon then a shoot around sunset is lovely. At home shoots can be done anytime of the day when you have the most natural light in the house.

How many times have you heard the best day of my life was my wedding day and the day my children were born. We all hire photographers for our weddings so why not for our births. Just imagine being able to look back 10,15, 20 years down the line and be able to see the moment your child was born, your reaction, the first time you held your baby or imagine being able to show your pregnant daughter photos of her being born. It may seem like a strange concept to many especially fathers but I photograph births with the utmost respect and honour and shoot them in an unobtrusive way.

Firstly what a great honour it is to capture the beginning of life itself. I use my documentary style to capture birth in a respectful, non-obtrusive way while abiding by the rules and regulations laid out by the SABPA (South African Birth Photography Association) of which I am a proud member of. I love to capture all the little moments from a distance while still using a creative, storytelling approach.

This session is an intimate session scheduled for the first 24-48 hours of babies life. Either taken at the hospital or at home depending on where you are. This is a great way to capture all those little details (who doesn’t love tiny baby feet or a little button nose), dad’s first diaper change, meeting of the siblings for the first time or granny’s first cuddle. From the moment your baby is born they will begin to grow so quickly – a noticeable difference even every few days. So this is a lovely chance to photograph them at their smallest.

The way I deliver your photos to you is through a beautiful gallery that you can share with your friends and family.

You can also download all your high resolution images straight onto your computer.
