Pre Matric Dance Photoshoot at Home in Ballito

During an extremely busy final year of school, Milan was looking forward to allowing herself the opportunity of enjoying one of the highlights of her senior year.  Her Matric Dance.  The importance of the evening was not lost on her parents who realise how grown up their daughter is becoming.  An informal portrait session at home before the dance would ensure a lifetime of precious memories of such a special occasion.

Milan was as excited of the photo shoot as she was of the dance and was completely comfortable in front of the camera.  She designed and looked stunning in a burgundy dress which was sure to impress her partner.  Together they make a handsome couple both inside and out.  With feedback of the dance being an altogether positive one, I hope these images will serve as a token reminder of a high school tradition representing the transition into adulthood.
