Cape Town, Western Cape
Matric dance photographer inCape Town
Matric dance portraits in Cape Town, from the mountain-side gardens of the Southern Suburbs to sea-facing homes along the Atlantic Seaboard. Cape Town light is exceptional at the end of the day, and the wind decides a great deal, so the schedule is built around both.

Venues, light and access
Atlantic Seaboard homes give sea and sunset backgrounds but can be exposed, so I keep a sheltered second setting ready for hair and gowns. Constantia and Bishopscourt gardens hold beautiful filtered light much later in the afternoon.
Travel and timing
Cape Town dates are booked as a scheduled trip rather than ad hoc, so please enquire as early as possible with your matric dance date.
