Love, Life and Memories

Family Portraits

A couple in love, a new member of the family or a family portrait that will last for generations.

These are the memories that adorn walls, live forever in albums and is shared with family for years to come. I approach family portraits with two different styles, classic portrait photography and a more informal, almost documentary style of storytelling.

  • “Wow what an experience, had an absolute blast. Ruan made us feel so relaxed and comfortable. Ruan put an immense amount of effort into ensuring the best moments were captured, the results really show in our beautiful portraits.“

  • “My wife and I had engaged Ruan for our wedding album in 2017 and he was a pleasure to worked with. We return to South Africa in 2024, and it only make sense to work with him again for our family photoshoot. Ruan is pleasant, polite, able to accomodate to the dynamics of photoshoot with various audience. Without a doubt, we are also impressed with his skills and ability to work with light, processing these images for us as a lifetime of memory to treasure. It is our second time engaging Ruan, and it will not be the last.“

  • “Ruan was simply amazing. We recently booked a family photoshoot with Ruan last week. We wanted a mountain scene and with his experience, he knew the best locations which brought our vision to life. Ruan was calm, kind, professional and didn’t rush us as he directed our shoot. We are very pleased with the outcome of our shoot, now having captured beautiful memories that will last a lifetime. Highly recommended his services 10/10. Thank you Ruan!”

  • “My family and I so enjoyed our morning with Ruan. He was kind, flexible, and patient with our large family group. The pictures are gorgeous - just what I had hoped for. He helped us pick such a special location and the way he captured our family and the scenery was just perfect. 10/10 would recommend and book again.”
