— Frequently asked questions

Photography in Cape Town.
What to know.

What types of photography do you offer?

Three core service lines: sports photography (race series, athlete campaigns, brand activations, action stills for sports brands), event photography (conferences, trade shows, brand activations, mostly at CTICC and Cape Town venues), and personal branding (LinkedIn and Instagram-ready portraits for coaches, founders, consultants, and individuals building a personal brand). Each is a dedicated discipline with its own page — start there to see real client work and detailed scope.

How do I know which service is right for my project?

If you're a sports brand, race organiser, or athlete: sports photography. If you're running a conference, trade show, summit, or brand activation: event photography. If you're an individual building a personal brand for LinkedIn, Instagram, or your website: personal branding. If you're not sure, just send a quick brief — I'll come back within 24 hours with a recommendation and scope. No obligation.

How much does photography cost in Cape Town?

Pricing depends on the service line and scope. Half-day sessions across all three disciplines start in the mid-R-thousands. Multi-day brand campaigns, event coverage, and athlete content packages are quoted per project. I send a clear, itemised scope within 24 hours of your enquiry, with overtime rates and usage rights agreed in writing upfront. No surprise costs after the fact.

How fast do you deliver edited images?

Standard turnaround is 5 to 14 days from the shoot date, depending on volume. For live events I deliver same-day social cuts during the event — typically 3 to 10 hero frames within hours — and the full gallery within 7 days. Tight deadlines for product launches or campaign work can be accommodated; flag it upfront and I'll quote accordingly.

Can you handle photo and video on the same shoot?

Yes — that's the core of how I work. One operator, one brief, both deliverables. You get consistent treatment across stills and motion without coordinating two freelancers, and the same person who shot the campaign edits it. For larger productions where simultaneous photo and video coverage is critical, I bring in a second operator from my network and run the shoot as creative lead.
