I am commissioned by companies & magazines to shoot commercial projects within architecture and urban spaces. I also work for NGO’s and production/media companies documenting projects and events that lie within the realm of social and environmental justice.

My clients include the BBC, Tate Britain, and the Natural History Museum, City of Cape Town, Life Brand, News24 . My work has been published in many magazines including Conde Nast Travel, The Observer, Wired, Visi, and House & Leisure.

My personal projects focus on decolonising the lens by giving visual voice to the often unheard.

I have been privileged to have my camera by my side to capture my transitional moments and milestones. Because I have these images I can tangibly reflect on the changes in my journey from an independent travel photographer to where I am now, a caregiver who has chosen to focus my lens on other families’ milestones too.

DescriptAs We Are is a socially aware photographic practice aiming to use the lens to empower and reframe stories. Photography can be a tool that reaches farther and deeper to challenge identity and community. Through capturing authentic life narratives, As We Are transcends documentation; its images aim to serve as catalysts for healing.

As We Are collaborates with other experts to facilitate, teach and mentor at various levels with groups and individuals, social enterprises and NGO’s.

Anthony being terminally ill brought me back to family photography. The photographs of our kids growing up made him smile while he was in pain. The images of the real moments we had shared drew us together. Picking up my camera in his last days gave me inner strength. This is the reason I now photograph as I do and why I offer one pro bono shoot a month to another family going through terminal loss.
