The event was held at The Grand Westin Hotel. Across the road from AMWAY’s offices and the V&A Waterfront.

The brief was pretty simple; portrait pictures of each couple when they arrived and on-site printing (the prints would go with the frames that each guest would receive as a gift). So I took along my Canon iP4500 printer, MacBook Pro and my Hensel Studio lighting gear.

I decided to ditched the “boring” white back-drop and pulled the chocolate muslin back-drop…and threw in some red-gelled lighting for good measure

The function took place at Otimmo Cibo, the home & fine Italian dinning venue of owner/chef, in Newlands.

It was a fantastic evening! Great authentic Italian food and a surprise Salsa dance class!

Check out some from the studio session…look out for them in a store near you

The event was attended by many off the company’s top members and it appeared to be a great opportunity to network and was well received by all. Members enjoyed some great food and wine as they talked shop followed by a welcome speech in their conference facility.

Next…what everyone was excited to see, was the showroom floor. The smiles and expressions awe were sure signs that this Business Centre is going to be a hit. As members browsed through the products (everything from cooking to beauty products) on display, there was a demonstration in the kitchen studio where various cooking implements were on show.

Thank you AMWAY for inviting me back on this exciting occasion.

We started with a couple of group photos of the group at the Cullinan Hotel (Sun International Hotel) at the Cape Town foreshore before heading to the reception at Westlake.

While the group enjoyed an awesome sight seeing trip along the spectacular beach road route of Sea Point, Clifton and Camps bay, I drove on ahead to the reception at the Tarragon restaurant, located at the Westlake Office Park at the foot of the impressive Silvermine Cape Nature Reserve.

Although we were blessed with clear skies, we were dogged by the typical strong Summer South Easter winds, which managed to end my attempts at setting up my studio for the portrait sessions…but as any professional does, we made a plan

The guests were welcomed by David and his excellent staff of the Tarragon Restaurant, and were served some of the finest wines the Cape has to offer, while they enjoyed each others company and the beautiful decor that was arranged by Lephia’s (Flowers and Event Decor). After the awards were handed out, it was party time!

I just want to congratulate all the members on their achievement and to thank Ruth and Michelle for the awesome evening!

We were commissioned to shot this occasion along with Actionlens. Our images made the Weekend Argus.
