Hylgard & Charlien {family lifestyle}

I’m posting about my friends Hylgard and Charlien Lourens, parents of two. I’ve done a couple of shoots for them in the past, here is their last shoot. In February this year I met new born, Nicolien Lourens, she has grown a couple of inches now and got a bubbling personality with the new inches. I’m so glad we got to do this shoot, do yourself a favour and go see how much Nicolien has grown in just 5 months, the saying They grow up so quickly is there for a reason. In the first couple of years of your child’s life it is important to capture them as much as you can. We did a family shoot with grandmothers Linda and Roelien and grandpa Willem (if you ask me, they don’t look like grandparents at all) and last but not least, a little cutie called Simone ;) I had so much fun capturing these moments, I struggled a bit choosing the photos for the blog – there were a lot more I wanted to post, and I apologize for uploading so many at once, but I HAD TOO – I just love these shots. Enjoy!

Sascha & Uschi ~ Trash the Dress ~ Vienna

The second part of the session. It was a really beautiful day in Vienna, first we went to the church where Sascha & Uschi got married one year ago. Then to the train station near their home – and from there we went to the historical parts of city centre. It was gorgeous! Thank you for the great day I got to spend with you guys.

Lucia - Awesome – awesome – awesome!!

Jeanette Verster - Wow!! And how awesome are those shoes!

Chanique - I second Jeanette! The shot of the shoes is absolutely fantastic!

Luca Part 2

Luca pulls the cutest little faces, it is so adorable! And when he sleeps he is so peaceful, when you see him you just know why one says I slept like a baby. I photographed Luca, his grandmother, Patricia, life partner Jozi and their dogs. Patricia and Jozi owns a reptile store, the are animal lovers – Tanya, Luca’s mom had 2 lizards in her house, luckily they were behind glass (unfortunately I am not too fond of lizards – bad experience – a gecco fell on me once, eeeeeck!)

Marelize Schmahl - Wow these photos are awesome. Love the beautiful expressions on the dogs faces that you managed to capture. I can see that they trusted you completely. Well done.

Luca Part 1

Tanya & Roger baptized their son, Luca on the 23rd of May 2010. Family and friends joined for the occasion at a stunning Catholic church in Vienna. Luca is such a gorgeous boy and looked so cute in his little outfit. After the ceremony, everyone went to Tanya’s fathers’ restaurant to celebrate, the detail for Luca’s day was done perfectly and I even had the privilege to photograph him a couple of days later.
