Today I did a little mini studio shoot of Chealsea Geldenhuis entering for the SA Teen. All images were done with my trusty Nikon D3x and the new 70-200mm f2.8 lens with a 39″ Deep Octa Box.
I did some shooting at the Woodland Estate this evening. The shoot was about the archtecture from a clients home.

Today I had the privilege to spend my 67 minutes in honour of the Nelson Mandela Foundation day with the very famous A list Hollywood actor Morgan Freeman.
In this time a had the opportunity to do a few portraits. Enjoy.
With the FIFA 2010 World cup almost something of the past, I wanted to share this with my customers and blog readers.
When I started off it was a big achievement to have a photo published in a newspaper or magazine. I then thought by myself this is the ultimate, but I was so wrong. The sense and pride I have knowing that every billboard and poster on a lamp pole and bus shelter and also the Braam Fisher Building in my city, Bloemfontein is wrapped with my images is a incredible feeling of pride.
I feel so blessed and privileged to be the chosen photographer for this assignment, Supplier of all the images for the 2010 FIFA Worldcup host city Bloemfontein, picture add campaign.
These pictures were all taken with the Nikon D3x (The Nikon Flagship Camera) and are printed 12 floors high (36 meters). I wish all of you could see the sharpness and quality of the prints from this amazing camera.

It is all about the scenes and images that involve Bloemfontein. The images of the pictures pasted on the lamp poles and buildings are all taken by me for the FIFA campaign.
Please let me have your feedback on this.

There have been rumours of growing rifts in the Bafana Bafana camp after the morale-sapping defeat to Uruguay in their second game, but they have been swiftly quashed by South Africa boss Carlos Alberto Parreira, captain Aaron Mokoena and now MacBeth Sibaya.
“I suppose now that we lost, the journalists need negative stories,” Sibaya said. “There is no tension or problems amongst anyone.”
Sibaya insisted that the players are focused on their task, with South Africa needing a sizable win against the former world champions and for either of Mexico or Uruguay to be beaten in the other Group A encounter on Tuesday.
With just one point from their two games, South Africa are desperate to avoid the humiliation of becoming only the first host nation not to make it past the group stage in World Cup finals history. Unfortunately, their destiny is not entirely within their control but Sibaya maintains that the desire for the team to go out of the tournament with their pride intact in front of their adoring fans will drive them on to do well against Les Bleus.
“We need to show more character and more fighting spirit than we did against Uruguay. We lost badly to Uruguay and I believe we could have done more,” Sibaya added.
“We need to go out and fight to regain our pride. We need to do a lot better against France and finish the tournament on a winning note.”

I know I am late with my postings this month. I wish I had more time, more hands and more money like some of these soccer stars. Here are a few images from the game between Greece and Nigeria. It feels like I am in over my head…. you see what I mean.
