Village Wedding – Enos & Kholo

This was one of the hottest event I have ever shot. Ga-Mokopane (Limpopo province) was very hot. Against all odds, I managed to document Mr Enos and Kholo’s wedding. They were wore traditional clothing and they were very bright and attractive. Neighbours and friends came with their regalia also to support and celebrate with the Mr Enos Enjoy the pictures!

A wedding to be remembered – Palesa le Kabelo Sekete

‘Sometimes you will never know the true value of a moment until it becomes a memory… 

This past weekend I had an opportunity to be one of the photographers at Kabelo and Palesa’s traditional wedding at Sebokeng (Far South of Johannesburg) and Centurion (Pretoria). I was part of the team that was there to freeze the moments for the newlyweds so that they can remind themselves about their big day. This day comes ones. It is a day that has wonderful memories. As a photographer on the day, my duty was to make sure that I freeze the moments for clients to be able to refer back when they look at the photos.

If you will be having an event, I advice you to invest in photography/videography. You can not afford to have mediocre photos because you want to save and forgetting that your big day comes ones. A professional photographer will work hand in hand with you in how you should structure and capture your memories. You will be proud to show off your photo books to your friends and family.  A search on the net will not cost you an arm and a leg, but a cheap photographer might cost you on your memories. There are wedding magazines and the internet to help you search for an event or wedding photographer in your area. Meet with the photographer and ask to see his/her portfolio of work and if you like what you see then ask if he will do a dry-run/wedding rehearsal shoot or not. Then, you can make an informed decision from there on.

I enjoyed working with Kabelo and Palesa Sekete. I had fun fun fun fun. One of Palesa’s friends said ”Palesa was like a dream”. She was stunning and tastefully attired,  Kabelo was stylish. I have posted a few pictures for you to enjoy and see how I captured the day. Do enjoy 🙂 🙂 🙂

Miss Soweto 2012

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

 

A stuning show presented by Drakensberg promotions and sponsored by White Star Maize Meal. The show was held at Soweto Theatre, in Soweto. The show was attended by businessmen and women of Soweto, TV personalities and community of Soweto. Lots of entertainment and stunt dancing performed by Soweto’s finest. Kedibone Mulaudzi was the programme director and added lost of humor. I liked his pants that covered his most of his shoe at the back, maybe it is a new style in the fashion world.

 

The 20 beautiful girls paraded the stage and presented various clothing to impress the judges. Unfortunately top 6 were selected and from there three winners were chose. Hape Moloi was the queen of the event and she boasted a dimple that I never missed with my camera. The judges spotted it and she even mentioned that she is the only one amongst the ladies with an eye catching dimple. It is was an eye catching dimple and deep as if someone had inserted a finger in her cheek.

That was a very beautiful event and it went very well. I enjoyed taking photographs at the event and had an awesome time. I love photography and I do enjoy concert photography so much.

Please share with 3 of your friends who might need to capture memories at their respective events.

Self Portrait

Snapped by my cousin who happens to be a photographer and a motivational speaker – Bateng Motshwane.

We were playing with our cameras at a client’s premises.  What can you do if you are an hour early and your client is 1hr 15minutes late. Well we practiced and improve our skill for that time. Due to not having more objects to photograph, we became main objects of our own photos. i saw this picture in my mind and forced him to see it in his mind. After several shots, he gave me what I needed at the time. I love the way he captured me. I was not in deep thoughts, but he captured my facial expression very well, the way I wanted. He is a good student on mobile art photography school. 🙂 🙂

“A good photographer will take good photographs with mediocre equipment easier than a poor photographer will with expensive gear”. This is a very interesting statement and so true. I have seen and met immature (wanna be) photographers boasting about their gears and not about their photo and art. To them having an expensive camera means you are a good photographer and having an entry level camera means you are not a photographer. My answer to them is, let us compare the photos. An expensive camera will not help you to compose and design your photo. Expensive cameras do not have a composition button, as a photographer you need to know how to compose a photo so that the output should be be appealing to the eye. Catchy photos are memorable and are not designed by an expensive camera.

The simpler the better.

I Feel Inspired

I feel inspired lately and it has been long since I felt like this. I have a drive to do my art, specifically photography. This picture I took while I visited another artist at his studio. The afternoon light captured my eye and I just found it appealing. I didn’t waste much time and froze the moment with my Sony A700. I am exuberantly joyful that I am back doing my art. To me art helps me to relax, rewind and recharge my batteries.

As an entrepreneur, I really need to have something that soothes my stress and energises my spirit. Art to me does that perfectly well. I have incorporated my art into business. Photography is one of my services that I render to clients – companies, people getting married, bridal showers and private parties. I am enjoying the feeling that one gets after every photographic shoot. No shoot is the same. Some are stressfull and some is just laughter from the start to finish.

I feel very inspired. I am inspired and very creative. It would be a great pleasure to come and capture wonderful memories at your event. Get in touch with me.
