Family Photo Shoot
This past weekend I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with the Pratley/O Sullivan family. Nicola an old friend of mine wanted family photos with the entire family with the new addition little Conor. It was temperamental weather ranging from being overcast and drizzly to very hot sunny and humid, but even with the changing light I think we got some awesome photos on the Pratley property which has stunning gardens including a real train!. Conor gets this cute grin when his dad calls him a little creature *so...

The second part of our shoot was on location along the most beautiful little river in Gauteng.It was the perfect picnic setting. The client wanted his model to be posed in a way to create a vision of a romantic fairytale spot, where a gorgeous girl indulges in an amazing feast. I think we managed to capture that idea nicely.

We wanted to use natural light, so with the help of two assistants we had 1 large and 1 medium reflectors to reflect light onto the models body,...
