Visual media has always been a deep rooted passion of mine that I have pursued over the years in various forms. I have practiced and taught art and drama as a teacher. With exposure to photojournalism over the last couple of years, I decided to pursue a career in this profession.
I have traveled extensively over the last 12 years and documented my experiences visually and developed a keen interest in photojournalism.
I traveled the US, various states including Alaska. I visited the Bahamas, The Virgin Islands, Jamaica, St. Martin, St. Lucia, Mexico, Cancun and Cozumel, Puerto Rico, Antigua and Barbados, Aruba, Cayman Islands, Columbia, Costa Rica, Belize, Hawaii, Canada, England, Scotland, Wales, France, Holland, Spain, The Balearic Islands: Ibiza, Formentera and Mallorca, India, Thailand, China, Taiwan, Israel and Northern Egypt.
After enrolling in a diploma in Professional Photography in 2007 I started freelancing for Die Burger newspaper (Media 24) and currently also for Rapport Newspaper (Media 24). I had the opportunity to improve my skills and get experience in the media industry.
I have exceeded my own expectations by publishing many pictures over the last two years, which included various front pages for both Die Burger and KampusBurger and Rapport. I also had pictures published in the Argus, Cape Times, Huisgenoot, The Sunday Sun, The Voice, Son and City Press.
