Guy McDonald (Good Hope FM DJ) was given a flip in a Huey helicopter, sponsored by Cadbury SA. I was asked to go along for the ride and shoot a ‘dream coming true’. The heliport is at the Waterfront in Cape Town and the trip is run by Sport Helicopters who take visitors on what [...]

Video: Lonehill Estate Behind-the-Scenes
Stimorol have sponsored another local band to produce a top quality music video, and I was asked to shoot a behind-the-scenes for the project. We spent the day running around Soweto with the guys, shooting on the street, in the salon, and eventually on someone’s roof. It was great fun and the final product from [...]
Video: MyLife MyAfrica in Zandspruit
My Life My Africa are doing some amazing work among the young people in Zandspruit squatter camp, Johannesburg. I shot this video to be used at the launch of their new project in a month’s time, and to be taken around local companies in order to get funding for their future work. I shot mostly [...]
Video: Silvermine Road
Noordhoek to Westlake in 1 minute. This was just a quick project I did on the way back home from my mom’s. I set my Canon 550D, with the 18-55mm kit lens, on a tripod in my passenger seat, and drove the Silvermine Road, in Cape Town, on a blustery, rainy day. This is the [...]
Photos: Fincham Family Pics
I was recently in Pietermaritzburg for some work and was asked by some old friends to take some family photos for them. It’s actually the first time I have done a family shoot but I think the pics came out ok. I just told Craig and Robs to hang out with the kids as they [...]

I was up in Kwa-Zulu Natal recently, shooting a promotional video for the iThemba Projects guys. Hopefully the video will be online here in a few months. Whilst I was running around shooting I snapped off some stills of the kids whose lives are being improved by this amazing program. These are some of the [...]
Video: Winetasting
At the moment I wait tables some evenings at The River Cafe to make ends meet, and recently they organised for us all to be taken on a wine tour of the Constantia Valley. I used the opportunity to get more familiar with the video on my 550D. I shot on 720 at 50p which [...]
Video: Stoan and Speedy
Stimorol recently flew me up to Johannesburg to cover the ‘behind the scenes’ of Stoan and Speedy’s new music video, ‘Neva Burnout’. We did most of the shoot in and around Soweto, ending up in a nightclub near Woodmead late that evening. I used my Canon HXA1s and my Canon 550D alternately throughout the day, [...]
Video: Fresh Breath Police
Cadbury hired me to put together this fun little video of the Clorets 2pc activation on the streets of Cape Town. The idea behind it was to pull people over and check the ‘freshness of their breath’. When they came up short they were given a Clorets and all was well:) It was a clever, [...]

I wait tables at The River Cafe in the evenings to make ends meet through these financially challenging times. Recently I took my camera to work to snap off some portraits of some of the people I work with every week. I shot with my Canon 550D and a 50mm 1.4 lens. I crunched them [...]
