I’ve know Richard Schulenburg for all my life.. I remember being Abigail’s age and hanging out with the Schullies as we call them.. Over the next few weeks, I hope to blog all the Schulenburg Men and their Families. Meet Richard and his Family, oldest of 3 brothers.

The last image you’ll notice “De Loskop”, when I see that mountain it means “home” to me. The Schulenburg Family’s farms are located right at the foot of De Loskop.. and from where we live and my Family work, De Loskop is always in sight.

Thank you Madelein for all the effort you went through to put this session together. Even if the sun bailed on us.. I think these turned out gorgeous.

I adore this Family, we had the strongest wind I have ever photographed in.. thunder all around us and still everyone were so content and happy to do whatever I asked of them. It means so much to me when my clients trust me, I always have your best interest at heart, and really I capture images like I want my Family to be Photographed.

It’s so important to have your family photographed.. Pieter and Roelien, I hope you enjoy these images for the years to come. And thank you, so so much, I had a wonderful time with you guys.

Meet this beautiful family. I have known both Zanelle and Stiaan for about 8 years now. We attended the same University, the University of Stellenbosh, in the Western Cape. I was so excited when Zanelle asked me to photograph their family, there is nothing more special to me, than to photograph old friends and their adorable new family member, Sebastiaan.

I flew to Cape Town and spend a weekend in Stellenbosh, the weather played along perfectly, and I am thrilled with the way this session turned out. Thank you Zanelle for inviting me to photograph your family. I wish you guys a Merry Christmas and a wonderful 2012. I hope to see you guys in the USA one of these days.

Location: Klein Constantia ( Where Stiaan is a wine agriculturist ). Klein Constantia is one of the most beautiful wine properties I have visited. If you ever get the chance, please do stop by and taste some of their amazing wines.
