GENDER REVEAL PHOTOGRAPHY | CAPE TOWN PHOTOGRAPHER
Gender reveal photoshoot sessions are new to the photography industry of Cape Town, but it’s taking us by storm.
Gone are the days where your gender reveals would be your Gynae saying, “It’s a Boy” or “It’s a Girl”. So let us be honest right up front, your Pinterest boards are filled with nursery ideas for both boys and girls, and you can’t wait to get your hands on that first DIY project.
Now all that’s left to do is find out the gender to secure that paint colour you have been dying to use.
So why should you have a photoshoot?
If not for any other reason but to have that moment to look back on and giggle with your baby when they are old enough to ask.
Instead of finding out the gender in the cold offices of your gynae, Cape Town offers unique locations, from the urban landscapes of the V and A Waterfront to the dreamy landscapes of Llandudno Beach. The location you choose will hold such a special memory for you whenever you visit there again. Can you imagine taking your baby there and reliving that moment, holding them close to your chest?
These sessions are not just about gender but starting your pregnancy journey with memories to last a lifetime. It sounds like a pretty good start to me.
Are you still looking to book a gender reveal photoshoot session and want to know more? Here is a brief explanation of how a pregnancy announcement photography session will work.
On the day of your scan at your OBGYN or ultrasound technologist, ask them very nicely not to tell you what gender your little bundle is. You will then give them my cell number, and they will call me to confirm the gender. Then, later that same day, we will meet at a location of your choice, and I will have everything ready for the big reveal.
More Details about the Gender Reveal Photo Shoot.
What do you need to wear? Not to worry, I will help you and guide you in all the options that will look great in the location of your choice.
From confetti balloons and canons to smoke bombs and powder paint, the options are endless. Within 10 minutes, you will know precisely the gender of your little one.
Being your photographer in Cape Town means that my studio is close by. So if you are keen to announce new and exciting news with your loved ones on Facebook or Instagram? Well, you can! I will send you a few sneak peek announcement photographs that same day.

Frequently Asked Questions
We try to answer all your questions you may have about our gender reveal photography services. If we don’t, please email us and we get back to you asap.
WHAT DO YOU WEAR TO A GENDER REVEAL?
This is probably the most asked question about the gender reveal sessions. It all depends on the style of your gender reveal photoshoot. The style you choose will directly impact which clothes you need to wear.
If you plan on a smoke bomb reveal, the best option is something neutral in colour, for example, Grey and White; this will compliment the colour scheme of the smoke you use. If you would like to have a powder paint reveal, wearing all white or a white shirt and black pants is always a lovely compliment for this session but be ready to get full of paint (don’t worry, it does wash off )
WHO KNOWS THE GENDER FOR A GENDER REVEAL PARTY?
Whether you are planning on having a party or just be you and your partner for the session, the only people with access to the news about the gender of your baby will be me, my assistant, your OBGYN / and your ultrasound technologist. Trusting just one of two people will give you peace of mind and know your secret is safe with us.
HOW DO YOU THROW A GENDER REVEAL PARTY?
Throwing a gender reveal party can be an exciting way to share the joyous news of your baby’s gender with family and friends. Here are some steps to help you plan and host a memorable gender reveal party:
Determine the timing: Gender reveal parties are typically held around the halfway point of pregnancy when the baby’s gender can be determined through an ultrasound.
Choose a theme: Select a theme that reflects your style or complements the overall atmosphere you envision for the party. This could be as simple as a colour scheme or a more elaborate theme related to babies, balloons, or even a specific hobby or interest you and your partner share.
Capture the moment: Assign a professional photographer to capture photos or videos of the big reveal. This way, you can relive the excitement later and share the precious memories with loved ones who couldn’t attend the party.
Client Reviews
Had a great experience with Amy! She was able to fit me in quite last minute for our gender reveal shoot. Everything was ready for us when we arrived and she is very professional, she knows what she is doing. She is really great with our daughter and managed to stay calm during a difficult situation during the shoot. Would recommend her anytime and will use her in future. – Dany
Our family and friends were welcomed to share in our gender reveal photo shoot of our twins. We were grateful to have them part of the experience and Amy was great in directing them and making them feel as involved as we were. We loved our images and look forward to seeing her soon for our maternity and newborn shoot – Christian
The wind was blowing so wildly and the sun was setting but we had a wonderful time at our gender reveal photo shoot with Amy. Our first fur baby was welcomed to join and it was a special time and we were all so excited when we saw the smoke and board on the reveal, all organized by Amy which was a real relief. – Amy
