Andrew Basson

Andrew Basson, a portrait photographer based in the beautiful town of George, South Africa. My passion lies in crafting timeless black and white portraits that capture the raw emotions and captivating essence of my subjects.

For me, black and white photography isn’t just an aesthetic choice; it’s a powerful storytelling tool. By stripping away color, we shift the focus to the subject’s expressions, the intricate details of their features, and the unspoken narratives etched on their faces. It’s a style that transcends fleeting trends, creating portraits with an enduring elegance that will be cherished for years to come.

Beyond the artistic vision, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise and worldly perspective to my photography. My background in IT allows me to leverage the latest tools and techniques to enhance my craft, ensuring exceptional image quality and a seamless workflow. My well-traveled experiences and education have infused my creativity with a global perspective, allowing me to connect with subjects from diverse backgrounds and capture their unique stories.

However, creating stunning portraits goes beyond technical proficiency. It’s about fostering a positive and collaborative experience. When you step in front of my lens, you’re not just a client; you’re a collaborator. I pride myself on my confident and helpful approach, ensuring a fun and comfortable atmosphere during every shoot. Whether you’re looking for a professional headshot, a family portrait to cherish, or a creative exploration of your own, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

My dedication extends beyond my professional clients. As a photography instructor, I’m known for my active listening and commitment to student success. Regardless of the time of day, I’m always available to provide insightful feedback and share my knowledge, helping my students overcome creative hurdles and refine their photographic skills.
