I photographed this fruit bat at the Cango Wildlife Ranch on our Oudtshoorn trip earlier this year. It is really huge bats.

I had a lovely photo shoot with Sanel and her family. I was also a continuation on her second birthday theme.

Friends

emmabooysen September 2, 2014September 4, 2014

Six student friends celebrated a birthday by having an outdoor photo shoot. Sunset time is just always good to capture moments.

Farm Sunset

My mom and I visited a friend on a farm close to Kroonstad. It rained earlier the day and the clouds opened up at sunset time.

Oudshoorn Sunset

emmabooysen August 10, 2014August 12, 2014

As the sun sets over Oudtshoorn, our week at Oudtshoorn also came to an end and we arrived safely back home.

Golden Sunset

emmabooysen July 28, 2014July 31, 2014

The "golden hour" is just one of my favorite times to photograph. This is Patong beach in Phuket.

Michelle

emmabooysen July 24, 2014July 24, 2014

It was a beautiful winters day today. I photographed Michelle in the tall yellow grass and did some natural light photography.

Family

emmabooysen July 19, 2014July 19, 2014

What better way is there to end a busy day with a lovely family shoot and such a beautiful sunset.

Paradise Beach

emmabooysen July 8, 2014July 11, 2014

With the cold we are currently experiencing, I wish I could be here on Paradise Beach in Phuket with its warm weather.

Orchid

emmabooysen June 30, 2014July 6, 2014

The Supertrees in Singapore are home to many plants, including these orchids.

Similan Islands

emmabooysen June 27, 2014July 5, 2014

This is to remind myself what Similan Islands looks like where we have done many dives years ago.

Clownfish

emmabooysen June 26, 2014June 27, 2014

It really has been too long since we have been underwater. I photographed this clownfish a long time ago at the Similan Islands in Thailand.

Landing

emmabooysen June 19, 2014June 22, 2014

In general the back side of an animal is not always it’s best side. However, since the face and eye is visible in this image of a landing seagull, it

Seagull

emmabooysen June 8, 2014June 11, 2014

At Melkbosstrand where we usually stay, there is always some seagulls on the beach that can be photographed.

Bloemfontein Sunset

emmabooysen June 1, 2014June 2, 2014

"You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take." As we were riding bicycle, the sky was just beautiful. Since we were on bicycles and my "big" camera stayed at

Seagull Sunset

emmabooysen May 18, 2014May 18, 2014

This was one of the images I took last year at Melkbosstrand. Sunset is still one of my favorite times of the day to do some photos.

Mantis

emmabooysen April 12, 2014April 6, 2014

My husband phoned me one morning on his way to work and said: "I saw your "photoaday", it’s sitting on your car." So I captured this mantis on my car’s

Frog

emmabooysen April 9, 2014April 6, 2014

I am always on the lookout for photographic opportunities. I captured this frog during a location family photo shoot. (It was not part of the family 🙂

Orchid

emmabooysen March 25, 2014March 23, 2014

Nature is also rich in color, like this orchid I photographed at the Cloud Forest at the Gardens by the Bay in Singapore.

Fungi

emmabooysen March 9, 2014March 11, 2014

We were also camping this weekend. And after the rain, I spotted this fungi in the grass. So I took a few moments to appreciate nature.

The Falls

emmabooysen March 2, 2014March 4, 2014

The falls is a 35 m waterfall at the Cloud Forest at the Gardens by the Bay in Singapore.

Christmas Tree Worm

emmabooysen February 25, 2014February 25, 2014

Beautiful colors are also abundant in nature, such as this blue Christmas tree worm which I photographed at the Similan Islands in Thailand.

Rain Drops

emmabooysen February 20, 2014February 21, 2014

It was refreshing after the rain last night. And the rain was still visible on the plants.

Spider Lily

emmabooysen February 18, 2014February 20, 2014

As I walked to the studio to start my day, I saw that one of the spider lilies in front of the studio opened. It was just ironic that Werner

Soldierfish

emmabooysen February 9, 2014February 17, 2014

It has been quite some time since we have been under water. I captured this image of a soldierfish at Umkomaas on the KwaZulu Natal coast.

Farm

emmabooysen January 24, 2014January 25, 2014

I had the opportunity to photograph the farmer’s day on a farm close to Senekal. Obviously I always look for other opportunities as well, like this landscape.
