ABOUT ME

Hello ...

and thank you for your interest in my work.

I am a photographer with an artistic style and a narrative approach.

Even though I have successfully worked across various genres - from weddings to interior, food photography and styled shoots, I find that what I enjoy most is telling your story or that of your brand.

I would love to create something beautiful for you. I am always open to new ideas and to collaborate to achieve the results that you have in mind.

Two of my favourite things to do are to travel and to hike. I have dragged my camera over many mountains! This has led to a love for landscape and nature photography.

Where it all began...

I started my career as a pharmacist in San Diego, California. When my husband Johan and I moved back to South Africa in 1995, I was the mom of a very tiny baby boy and it wasn’t long before our family also included a gorgeous little girl. I switched gears and between changing nappies and photographing my children I also did recruiting work for an American company.

Photographing my children morphed into photographing other people’s children, family shoots, school events, matric dances, lifestyle shoots, weddings … you name it and I did it.

Being a lifelong student, constantly striving to improve and learn from others, I did many photography courses over the years and learned from some of the best photographers. This is something I still continue to do.

In 2010 I decided to make it official by launching Grace Photography and started calling myself a photographer.
