SOCCER PHOTOGRAPHY
Soccer has always been part of my life one way or another for as long as I can remember. From playing it at school for fun and then taking a run at the refereeing side of things, I thrived at the chance when the opportunity arose to be the photographer for Maritzburg United F.C.
I have been blessed to grow with the club and at the same time grow my skills behind the camera on the soccer field. Its always such a thrill shooting at massive cup finals, but at the same time it's just as special shooting small events at our local schools. I take just as much pride and passion into every single shoot I do, no matter how big the occasion.
Soccer photography has taught me other tricks for other events, such as you can miss the moment in the blink of an eye. I believe this has improved my anticipation skills especially in the sporting environment and I believe it gives me a competitive edge when it comes to getting that perfect shot.

ABSA Premiership
Over the past 6 years, I have had the amazing opportunity to be the photographer for Local PSL side, Maritzburg United. I have captured their highs and lows in the league with fellow local clubs. Being the sole club photographer has taught me a lot about working under pressure. We were the first to introduce in game images, this required me to capture, edit and distribute images to the clubs social media management. Its always great to photograph the team play other teams, as it challenges me to think how they will adapt in their style and so I can get to the right spots at the right time. Sadly with soccer, you cannot be everywhere at once, so opportunities do go a miss, but I have learnt to make the most of the situations I get given.

Telkom Knockout
One of the biggest honour to shoot, is a cup final! I have been fortunate enough to capture Maritzburg United's fight to a cup final where they narrowly missed out on glory at the Moses Mabhida Stadium. It was great to travel down to Durban to capture the historic occasion with the team. |
MTN 8
An event sadly I dont have much experience in shooting. After having a tremendous season before, Maritzburg United qualified for the iconic MTN 8 cup, which they had the honour of hosting their first road leg at home. Sadly things didn't go to plan but it was a great experience to be part of and capture one of the biggest cup competitions in the country. |
