Hi everyone, my name is Heline Bekker. I love the outdoors, my husband, our cats, my family and photography - big surprise there haha! :) I also love getting to know YOU as a person/family and I love spending time on a photoshoot just chatting and making silly jokes. I love capturing people and families, creating some special moments that frozen in time.
All my photos come from the heart and it’s a real passion. I always like to push myself to get better. I enjoy a challenge and I love to work with other people on photographic projects. Photography has been my dream since I was little. When I was 21 I got my first point-and-shoot camera and then I got my first digital camera about 23 years ago. Up to about 14 years ago it was just a hobby and then I started to take it more seriously.
To me photographs are not just a piece of paper. It’s SO much more. I know this sounds cliché, but it’s really capturing a memory. Capturing a special time in your life that you can look back on and keep forever. It’s like when you visit an old historic home. You walk the same corridors that someone walked in many years ago. You wonder what they talked about. It feels like you are there. The only difference is time. This is how I feel about photography. It’s keepsake of something you can never go back to in time - the next best thing is a precious photograph.
I also like to think that I am easy to get along with and I like to laugh :) I have a friendly and relaxed approach and I love to make people feel at ease. I love it when my clients feel like they’ve known me for ages :)
I hope you enjoy my art as much as I like creating it.
With Love, Heline Bekker
