Carima's Photography

Carima's Photography Photography Carima’s Photography is proudly rooted in Somerset West, capturing unforgettable moments across Strand, Gordon’s Bay and Stellenbosch. Authentic.

Driven by a love for storytelling, Carima uses her lens to find the poetry in real life , bold, emotional, beautifully authentic. Every shoot is a celebration, and every photo is crafted to be a memory you’ll carry forever. We bring fun, laughter and creative flair to every session , from big milestone events to those spontaneous moments worth capturing. Whether it’s parties, matric & school dance

s, special celebrations, maternity journeys, family portraits or product shoots, we approach every shoot with passion, artistry and heart. My photography is about more than taking pictures. I love people, their energy, their joy, their stories. Behind the camera, I chase connection… the spark, the rhythm, the feeling that makes you stop and look twice. I aim to freeze those powerful moments in time, so anyone who sees the photo can feel the memory. From fiery sunsets on the beach to dreamy hidden forest spots, I explore locations that bring your story to life, Cape Town style. And YES… your pets, your cousins, your aunties and your crew are always welcome! Joyful. Proudly local. Let’s create magic together.

🌼💛 A Little Boy, A Whole Lot of Love & One Very Proud Big Sister! 💛🌼

This maternity shoot was one of those sessions that just makes you smile! From the moment we started, it was impossible not to fall in love with this couple , their laughter, their connection, and the way they already adore their little boy who hasn’t even arrived yet. 💙👶
And then, of course, there’s the most important member of the family their little guard dog, who has officially been promoted to BIG SISTER! 🐾😂💕
She may look very serious about her duties, but I have a feeling she’s going to be one very spoiled and protective big sister.
Between the tiny baby clothes, those precious ultrasound pictures and a field full of sunshine, this shoot was all about love, laughter and waiting for the sweetest little boy to arrive. 🌾💙

I have a feeling this little guy is going to be VERY loved and VERY well guarded! 🐶👶❤️

Congratulations, Mom & Dad, your beautiful new chapter is almost here! ✨

When your favourite things are Hot Wheels, Batman and LEGO, the only sensible solution is to have all three in one epic party!

Throw in a racetrack, jumping castles, Fizzers, water balloons, a whole bunch of energetic boys, superhero missions, and a few very determined LEGO builders and you've got the perfect recipe for organised chaos.

By the end? The kids are still somehow full of energy, the moms deserve a medal, and this photographer is happily exhausted after trying to keep up with all the action.

Happy 5th Birthday to one awesome little superhero! 🎉

📸 Happy World Photography Day! 🎉

Today we celebrate the wonderful excuse we have to stop what we’re doing and say… “Wait! Don’t move… the light is PERFECT!” 😂

Photography is about freezing time capturing those fleeting moments, funny faces, big emotions and little memories we never want to forget.

It’s about telling stories seeing the world through our own eyes and sharing our unique perspective, whether it’s a dramatic sunset, a cheeky child, a beautiful landscape or a bird that absolutely refuses to pose! 🐦😂

And most importantly, photography teaches us to slow down. To notice the light, the shadows, the tiny details and the beauty hiding in ordinary moments.

So today, grab your camera 📷, go outside, look around and celebrate the magic of seeing!

Because life moves fas thankfully, we have a shutter button. 😉

Happy World Photography Day to all our photographers! ❤️📸

🩰✨ When Ballet Stops Being Still…

SAIBC 2026 ✨

Ballet and contemporary dance aren’t just about perfect positions and beautiful lines they’re about movement, music, emotion and feeling. 🎶💫

I had so much fun experimenting with slow shutter speeds and creative photography, allowing the movement to become part of the image. Instead of freezing the moment, I wanted to capture the energy, flow and emotion of the performance.

These are just a few of the creative slow-shutter images I captured at the ballet competition last week. Some are dreamy, some a little wild, and some wonderfully unpredictable! 😍

Because sometimes, the blur tells the story better than the sharpness ever could. ❤️

A huge thank you to all the incredibly talented dancers for giving us photographers so much inspiration and to everyone involved in making SAIBC 2026 such a wonderful celebration of dance! 🩰✨

🌸 Happy Women’s Day! 🌸

There truly is no limit to what we, as women, can accomplish. We dream, we create, we care, we inspire and when life throws us a curveball, we somehow find a way to handle it usually with a little coffee and a lot of determination! ☕😉

We don’t need to fit ourselves into the world. Let’s help shape a world that fits women our dreams, our strengths, our differences and all the wonderful things that make us who we are.

And remember, f you need a hero, sometimes you just have to become one yourself. ❤️

Here’s to strong women, kind women, brave women, funny women, tired women, ambitious women and every woman in between.

Happy Women’s Day! 🌷✨
