Sean van Tonder Photography Specializing in family photography, I want people to enjoy their photographic experience. I was always fascinated by art at school but was never any good at it.

I am a loving family man, blessed to live on the KwaZulu Natal South Coast. I have spent many years traveling around South Africa and enjoying the adventure of visiting destinations in our beautiful country. After leaving school, I joined the South African Police Force where I had to deal with horrific scenes on a daily basis, scenes that I would not like to remember. I left the police and joined

the corporate world where I was introduced to the amazing world of technology and website design. Frustrated with poor photos for websites, I bought a camera and fell in love with the art of photography. Finding photography, created a happy place, a place where I could meet people and create memories. I have been behind the camera for almost two decades documenting love stories and families. I look forward to being part of your journey, a journey of friendship and memories. Visited my website to view my portfolio - www.seanvantonder.co.za

The people who made you, and the people you made - all together on a winter's afternoon at Margate Beach.

There's something about three generations in one frame. The story of a family, told in a single golden hour.

If your family has a story like this one, I'd love to tell it.

Somewhere between the posed portraits and the moment everyone forgot the camera was there - that's where the real story lives.
Grateful to Hetta's family for the trust.

Family Beach Photos in winter

You have got to love the South Coast. We do not experience winters like most parts of the country. There might be a slight chill in the air as the land breeze blows, but by the time the sun is above the horizon, we have beautiful light, and it gets warm quite quickly.

The weather the past few days has been absolutely amazing. No wind - perfect blue seas and warm days. Today felt like summer.

If you would like an amazing family experience, I would love to capture your story.

Congratulations, Tej and Greg.

Friday was a perfect day, until ot was time to meet Tej and Greg. A south-westerly wind came through a little earlier than expected, and we had to change locations. Uvongo beach was the choice - and it turned out amazing.

The coast offers some fantastic holiday accommodation.
This unit was commissioned and set up by Van Heerden Letting. This beautiful space has magnificent views looking onto Margate Beach.

Professional photos can boost your property views. The images you share are a direct reflection of how a prospective client perceives value.
When someone scrolls past your listing, they're not reading the description first - they're looking. A dim, cluttered, or rushed photo tells them "ordinary" before they've seen a single room. A considered one tells them, "This is worth a closer look."

If you've got a property you need to be showcased, make sure the first impression is the right one.

Jessica and Sheldon.

A warm afternoon on a private stretch of beach. Loved creating memories for these two.
I used a combination of natural light and strobe (flash). Using flash, the excitement of looking through the viewfinder and seeing a photograph so different from what can be captured in natural light or on a phone is something that always excites me.

The South Coast has amazing beaches, some of which are invisible to the general public.
This small stretch of paradise is known as Sea Park. Really close to my studio.
Growing up in the area, I used to walk this stretch of beach most days to get to the popular Umtentweni Beach. Once can't access this beach from the road. A real private gem.

Proof that family photos without a glowing sunrise are still amazing.

We can't control the weather, and we can't always have the perfect sunny mornings or afternoons. It's the people who make the moment special.

I loved creating memories for Maxine and the family at Marina Beach near Sanlameer on the KZN South Coast; it was such a fun session.

I thought I would add that I am ecstatic to have over 150 five-star reviews on Google.
