I've never been one for meeting loads of new people at the same time, therefore I have never attended an Instagram Meet or Walk. But when Instagrammer @klattek1 posted an invite to join in on an Instawalk at Green Point Urban Park I could not think of a reason NOT to attend...

These are some of my moments captured on the InstaWalk....

Earthcote Thriftshop

I just loved this ThriftShop in Hermanus.So colourful,vibrant and retro-looking.

Preggie Shoot

Recently a friend of mine asked me if I could do her a favour and take some pics of her celebrating her pregnancy. At first I was thinking of various excuses, but in the end I accepted, as I felt quite flattered that someone would ask me of all people to try and immortalize this important phase in her life!

Dad, mom & baby makes three!

I researched the topic, looking up on typical poses for couples who are pregnant, and slowly but surely I could not wait to start the process. I must say, after a few "test shots" I started enjoying the experience and it felt like I was actually on a shoot! LOL! Go figure, hey?

Shoes awaiting baby, with scan as reminder in the background

It wasn't long that we started coming up with our own poses and ideas and they started enjoying themselves! They even asked if they couldn't redo certain poses and I didn't have a problem just shooting as they interacted quite naturally.

Mommy knows who she is carrying...

I must say I am proud at the images we produced! I just hope that they enjoyed it as much as I did, as I truly stepped out of my comfort zone and blossomed! I think, LOL! Here's looking forward to the baby pics! Hint-hint!

Limnos Bakers

Limnos Bakers, Straight OUTTA Kuila, KUILS River, South Africa

Limnos Bakers is one of Kuils River's success stories, a landmark locally. The Bakery has grown from strength to strength with a few franchises opening in and around various Cape Town Malls. If you come across one shop, do enter, grab yourself a lovely cup of Java and slice of cake. It will be a pleasurable experience. Promise.

Beach Hotel

Beach Hotel, Strand Beach, South Africa

Loved the symmetry of this building. It almost looks like the sun or moon is rising in its centre, however its part of the actual building. I decided to go Black n White as the dunes and building are similar in colour...

Moss & Pipeline

Moss & Pipeline, Strand Beach, South Africa

They say that MOSS grows on the North Side of Trees. But in reality it prefers to grow in cooler, damp & shady areas. Actually in the Southern Hemisphere, moss will grow on the South Side of Trees. Would you believe that! I am totally unsure where it grows on a Pipeline, but it makes for an interesting image, don't you think? Here's to a great weekend. John
