As I look back on the past few months, hosting my first wedding photography workshop in Cape Town, it has been such an amazing journey.
9 Years after I first started my photography career, it was a big, but yet exciting step to take by hosting my first photography workshop. The workshop was all about building your wedding portfolio, and how to go about it. And I had so much fun (even though I was a bit nervous) teaching on how to take photos for your portfolio, and at a wedding.
This was the first of many, as I love sharing what I have learned. As I know all too well what it feels like starting out as a photographer.
Thank you to the following incredible photographers who attended, you have all enriched my life and I am so thankful for you:
Candice Clarke, Charmé Kriel, Jenna Visser, Micaela van Staden, Shanie Jooste, Tammy Yule & Veronique Stofberg. Keep an eye out for these ladies in the photography world, they are all so very talented!
I would love to thank all the service providers and sponsors involved:

I just loved the decor by Lauren & Jenna from My Green Love Affair – simplistic, yet elegant greenery 🙂
As you can see in the photo below, I am very serious about the detail shots 😉
Beautiful stationery below by Lezanne’s Designs.
I had a great time teaching and giving feedback – this is so vital in a photographer’s career.
