dream dream dream

as we have now reached December and approaching the end of the year, Nick and I have started to look back on 2011...and what a year!  It definitely has been quite a roller coaster year for us...but as we look back we realised the main thing is that it has been a year of dreams.  

Nick and I love to dream about the future together and what we would both personally like to achieve in the future.  for me, the dream this year was to approve in my photography and take it to the next level...and even though I feel I am not quite there yet...I definitely feel I have achieved more this year.

for Nick, he is a lover of music, song writing, composer and loves joining with other musicians and helping them to create the music they want.  one of his goals this year was to start a recording studio...and I'm glad to say he has now reached this goal!  he has been recording other artists for a while now..but has decided to make it official now.  and as we like to compliment and support each other in our little ventures..he asked me to take some shots for him for his page. so here are just a few of the pics i captured for him.  you can go to his page if you would like to find out more about his recording studio...InFlame Recording Studio...and also listen to some of the artists he has recorded.  

 

to all those dreamers out there...keep dreaming and making those dreams a reality :)

Christine Meintjes Workshop | Clouds Estate

about a month ago Nick decided to treat me and send me off to a workshop hosted by Christine Meintjes.  this was one of my best early birthday presents, as I have admired Christine and her work for a while now and being able to learn from her and meet other amazing photographers was a dream.  I learnt so much at the workshop, not only about photography but about business too.  

Christine and the service providers designed a stunning shoot, with a lovely couple, Dave & Kim, all at the beautiful Clouds Estate - which I actually didn't know about until the workshop and will definitely be planning a visit back there!

Here are just some of the photos I took at the workshop...hope you like :)  if you would like to find out more about future workshops hosted by Christine you can go here.

Andrew & Sarah | Ongegund

you might remember a while back i shared the photos of Andrew & Sarah's engagement shoot. well, a few weeks ago it was finally their wedding :)


Andrew & Sarah are good friends of ours and it was so amazing to be there to share their wedding day with them and capture it.


The reception was held at Ongegund in Somerset West, which created a stunning backdrop of mountains, forest, and a dam for some lovely photos.  for the sunset, the owner even drove us right up to the top of the mountain for the view. Sarah was a champion bride, even making the walk from the car to the top of the mountain all in her heels! and she did it in style! 


Thank you Andrew & Sarah for letting me be apart of your wonderful day! :)
