I’m Charne, a 26-year-old photographer, wife, and mom to two beautiful children. Photography has been part of my journey since 2019, growing from a passion into a heartfelt way of preserving the moments that matter most.

Originally from Patoria, I now call Knysna home where the ocean meets quiet moments, golden light, and endless inspiration. The sea has my heart, and so does family. I’m deeply drawn to genuine connection, soft in-between moments, and the kind of love that’s felt rather than posed.

My approach to photography is gentle, patient, and intentional. I believe the most meaningful images come from real emotion the laughter, the closeness, the fleeting moments you may not even notice at the time. Whether I’m capturing a wedding day or a simple family session, my goal is always the same to create timeless images that tell your story with honesty and heart.

Above all, I value connection  with people, with moments, and with the stories we carry. It’s a privilege to be invited into such meaningful seasons of life, and I approach every session with care, gratitude, and love for what I do.
