Most people feel nervous before a photo shoot.

"What do I do with my hands?" "How do I stand?" "What if I look awkward?" "What if I'm not photogenic?"

The truth is, that's not your job - it's mine 😄
My job is to help you relax. I promise to do that!

I will guide you every step of the way. I'll show you where to stand, how to pose naturally, where to look, and how to use the light. I'll help you feel comfortable, confident, and completely yourself.
You don't need to be a model. You don't need to worry about anything ☺️

The best photographs happen when you're relaxed, laughing, connecting with the people you love, and simply enjoying the experience.
A photo shoot shouldn't feel intimidating. It should feel like spending time with a friend who just happens to have a camera. ❤️ I'm that friend!

These behind-the-scenes photos capture a little of what the process really looks like, and for that I want to say a special thank you to my friend Cassie for documenting these moments so beautifully. It was such a gift to see the story from the other side of the lens. You're great at what you do!

Photography is about people first. The camera comes second. ❤️

✨ A beautiful day celebrating an even more beautiful achievement.
Congratulations to my incredible client, Tarryn, on earning her Master’s Degree in Music Therapy. 🎓🎶

What an honour it was to capture this special milestone for someone who is not only talented, but also using music to bring healing, comfort, and hope to others.

Thank you for trusting me with your graduation shoot, Tarryn. I’m so proud of you. 🤍

Corporate shoot for The Makings Consulting.

They didn't opt for the usual white wall. They wanted something more relaxed, more inviting.

Lovely bunch of people!

You need updated profile pictures.

Your profile photo is often the first handshake before a client ever meets you.

And in industries like real estate, that photo sits on boards next to roads, social media, websites, brochures and property portals — representing your brand 24/7. Some of those boards really need a makeover!

Most business profile photos look rushed, outdated or unapproachable.
But confidence sells. Professionalism builds trust. And warmth makes people want to work with you.

Our goal was simple:
✨ Professional
✨ Confident
✨ Approachable
✨ Elegant
✨ Authentic

We can help you stand out!

Because people don’t just buy homes.
They buy trust in the person helping them.

If your current profile photo no longer reflects the level of your business, maybe it’s time for an upgrade!

For estate agents, entrepreneurs, business owners & personal brands who want to stand out professionally.

Lelanie, wishing you a bright future at RE/MAX Capital South Africa

Some places aren’t just visited.
They’re felt!

On Saturday I spent the day at Pallet Farmstall capturing what matters most to me as a storyteller photographer — real moments.

The laughter behind the counter 😍
Kids fishing barefoot by the water.
Ponies stealing snacks.
Sunlight on fruit stands.
Families slowing down long enough to simply be together 💙

That’s the kind of photography I love creating.
Not staged perfection.
Stories. Atmosphere. Emotion. Connection.

Because great content shouldn’t just show people a venue — it should make them want to experience it for themselves.

Thank you, Pallet, for allowing me to capture the heart behind your space. 🤍

Go visit them! Best pizza's in town!!

Hi, I’m Marethe ✨

I love people, storytelling, and creating content that feels real. I’m down-to-earth, easy to work with, and my superpower is making people feel comfortable in front of the camera 🤍

This is what I do — I walk around quietly, capturing the atmosphere, details, people, food, and those natural moments happening in between… often without you even noticing me there.

I’m now offering social media content creation for businesses, restaurants, venues, coffee shops, and brands that need fresh, authentic content for their online presence.

If you or your business needs content with personality and heart — let’s chat 📸

As a sidenote, I have been doing this for 22 years. I've also been nominated for Best Photographer of Pretoria, second year in a row. You're in capable hands 🙌

Give me a call!

Happy Mother's Day to all the beautiful moms out there!

Keep on shining your light! Without it the world would be a dark place ❤️

✨connection
✨emotion
✨movement
✨trust
✨light
✨If you felt safe, and seen, and exactly like yourself

You are enough.
Show your heart ❤️

To all my new followers — and especially the ones who have stood by me for years — thank you. ❤️

For those who don’t know me yet… I’m Marethe. A storyteller with a camera in my hand and a heart that notices the little things most people miss.

I’ve been doing photography for 22 years now, and after all this time, I still believe the most powerful images are the ones that make people feel something.

My dream has never only been to take beautiful photos.
It’s been to tell real stories.
To capture emotion, connection, strength, love, healing, personality, and moments people will treasure forever.

I dream of photographing people in breathtaking locations around the world one day — creating art that feels cinematic, emotional, and deeply alive. ✨

Being nominated for Best of Pretoria for the second year in a row means a lot - thank you, my home city. Not because of titles or recognition… but because it reminds me that people trust me with their memories. And that is something I will never take for granted.

I’ve learned that talent means very little without kindness, humility, and heart.

So whether you’ve supported me from the beginning or only recently found my page — thank you for being here. Thank you for seeing my work. And thank you for allowing me to keep doing what I love most: telling stories through my lens. 📷❤️
