we are family...

asked three lovely sisters the other day, some good friends of mine, whether they would be interested in doing a photo shoot for my portfolio.  they agreed, and off we went to the beach to take some shots.  we had lots of fun, doing cartwheels, jumping and getting wet in the sea, and below is the first shot i have managed to edit since then.  being in competition with my husband and his music for the computer is becoming quite difficult.  think we are needing another computer!  but any how, here is the first shot...and once i manage to have time (or more like manage to kick my hubby of the computer!) i will post the rest up on here.


been thinking a lot about what to do with my photography..whether to keep it just a nice hobby or see if i can take it further.  seems a lot of photographers i admire have found their own style, and usually this is what makes them so good.  i still have to find mine and exactly what i want to pursue.  but all part of the process i guess and the journey.  am loving portraits at the moment tho, and have already been asked by some friends if i can take some  family portraits for them. little bit scary, because everything up until now has been of my own accord...now this is someone wanting something its a bit more of a challenge, but i'm up for it! 


if you are reading this and happen to live here in cape town...i want to build more of my portfolio up, so if you are about and up for it, would love to have some people to photograph! :)


hope you like this shot.  you can find more of my work here on flickr.
