STYLE & STORIES PORTRAIT PORTFOLIO: Elize
BY ERIKA
Thanks to good old Facebook, I reconnected with my school friend Elize again after about 35 years. At first it we only kuier-ed in virtual reality but in 2012 Elize moved from Limpopo to Stellenbosch and we just carried on where we left off years ago.
It has been a wonderful experience getting to know Elize as
an adult while at the same time enjoying the familiarity of a friendship that
started in Grade 1 in 1968!!!
At the beginning of this year Elize who has been practising yoga since 1988, established the AnahatYoga & Wellness Studio in Die Boord, Stellenbosch with two partners, Candice Jones and Johan Kotze.
The
name Anahat, Elize explains, refers to the Sanskrit name for the heart chakra, anahata
which means “unstruck” or “unhurt. It implies that underneath our human existence
lies a wholeness that is eternal and boundless.
“We chose Anahat for the name of our
studio because it beautifully brings the energy of “the Heart of Yoga” to our
studio and we wanted our studio to resonate with the love of the path of yoga,
shared from the heart, with the people of Stellenbosch.”
It is in the lounge of this beautiful and tranquil space that Martin chose to photograph Elize for her STYLE & STORIES PORTRAIT PORTFOLIO.
“The big windows on both the east and the west sides of the
lounge as well as neutral wall colour makes it an ideal place to do natural
light portraits,” he says.
“It also helped that on the day of the shoot, we experienced
a typical Boland winters day with cloud cover and rain for most of the day
creating a huge soft box on all sides.”

BIZ PORTRAIT PARTY - Professional portrait shoot with a difference
By Martin Van Niekerk
We recently participated in a really enjoyable project. In fact it
didn't feel like work at all!
The Biz Portrait Party was organised by in-bound marketing expert
Bettina Horvath of My Biz Performs at The Workshop Space in
Main Road, Somerset West to encourage business and professional people to
invest in good quality and appropriate professional portraits for social
media.
While professional make-up artist, Candice Harker, was plying her trade and I
was photographing the nine dynamic and beautiful business women one at a time,
Bettina lead an informal discussion and question-and-answer session on the role
of images in social media.
What our clients said:

Last week I organised the Biz Portrait Party with +Martin van Niekerk photography - the results are outstanding! It is so worthwhile to have a professional photoshoot done for online images, wouldn't you agree when you see these pics?
