I love the Drakensberg, and was stoked when Tarryn contacted me for some family photography in the beautiful central Drakensberg. We met them at the Champagne Sports resort and made our way to the one of my all time favourite spots: Dragon Peaks resort.

The Dragon Peaks camping ground nestled at the bottom of Champagne valley lends itself to stunning locations to do some great family photography. Even with it being quite dry, the little river with its indigenous forest on the banks delivered once again.

The Hoare family are such naturals, and it made the shoot go extra smooth. It is awesome to photograph people who are so comfortable in their skins and clearly care for each other a great deal. Little Emelie was so tired at the end of the session, but brave to the end.
