Lara & Alicia in Maboneng

Mom and teenage daughter happy together in Maboneng, Johannesburg

My three toddlers are in that cute (yet frustrating) stage where they want to be on my lap every minute of every day — whether I’m at my desk, on the couch, or on the toilet.

The same cannot be said for teenagers and that is one of many reasons why I loved this family photo session with Lara and Alicia in Maboneng! Imagine if my kids want to spend time with me at the grand old age of 17. One can only dream of such a bond.

I use the friendly and talented Ayanda from City Skate Tours as my expert guide on such sessions and can HIGHLY recommend him for a walking tour of the inner city.

Here are some of my favourite photos from the session:
