This book offers valuable advice on how to pose your couple and it has over 500 images to inspire you. It is a pocket size image library. Some of my icons in the wedding photography world like Yervant, David Beckstead, and Kelly Morgan also have a few of their photos in the book and wrote some of the material for some of the chapters of the book. Also work of South African photographers like Sybrand Cillie, Mario Sales and Jean Pierre Uys where also published in the book. I have recently introduced this book at my workshop and it was well received by the photographers who attended it. For photographers out there who are struggling to set up your shot and want to take your photography to a new level, this book is for you.  This book is part of a series of little books and the next edition, “Wedding Photography – Guide to Photojournalism” by Kelly Morgan will be published soon. You can order this book from Amazon or from the Oliver Cameron Publishing website. Here are some images that was used in the book.

In the month of  May we moved to our new house and studio in Boston, Bellville. At the same time, I was busy finishing off with the busy season’s work, held my first workshop (Workshop of 5) and started with all the editing work that awaited me. But hey, that is part of life; to handle the new things that comes with each new season. I am so grateful to have a house to live in and new studio that is we are still restoring. Me and my family have so much to be grateful for. I had  hectic busy few weeks to find my bearings again and to get back to my usual old self.  Over the next few days I will be uploading all the shoots, news and weddings photos that I still post on my blog. There are some great moments and great photos that I would like to share with you. So stick around, get some hot chocolate for you and get ready to view some great photographic moments that I will share in the next couple of days.

We are moving in the last week of May. I also just want to assure all couples and clients that we are working around the clock to get your photos out as quickly as possible. This wedding season was a busy one, but there are really beautiful images awaiting all of you. Thank you for your support and your patience!

Special thanks to our family, friends, everyone who helped us to get this house and God. I am getting so excited writing this post.  I am glad to have a new place we will transform into our home; where we can lay down our heads and also earn our living. For everyone out there with a dream… don’t give up hope! I have not posted any photos yet, because we still need to receive the keys to our house. But in the near future I will take some pictures and share it with you. See you in our new house and studio soon!

This picture of Amelie looks like an abundant doll on a beach! Weird, but cool photo. Love the sunset.

This is a movie that I did for my brother’s final short film at AFDA. My brother got a few famous Afrikaans Actors like Richard van der Westhuizen and Joanie Combrinck to act in his last Third Year Film. I was inspired by the cinematography of the movie, Gladiator, for this poster design. The movie did well at Film festivals in South Africa and in other countries. It even won a few short film awards.

This is a CD cover design that I did for the band Dropping Plates. Both two brothers, Desmond and Marinus, played guitar and drums in the band. Textured layer over the image and the contrast makes this a scary but cool album cover.

A few weeks ago Zani and I made a thank you card to had out to all the people who helped us during the pregnancy/birth and to all the people who gave something.  We printed three little photos of Amelie a DL-size page and inserted it into the card.  Here is the three photos that we printed for the card.  I love the last one where she is laughting (my brother, Desmond, took the picture). I tell you, that little smile makes my day when I worked hard.  It is incredible how they grow up so quickly.  I treasure everyday with her.    Hope you guys enjoy it!
