Tilanie Grote Photography

Hello, I am Tilanie, a portrait and lifestyle photographer, based in Durban. I am passionate about creating lasting memories and natural images. Photos can be done in my studio in Durban North or on location in the greater Durban area. I love taking beautiful photographs and specialise in family, personal branding and corporate photography. I pride myself that I can get my subjects to feel relaxed as quickly as possible, and then I work my magic in a no-fuss photoshoot.

Family Photography: Kids grow up so quickly, so doing yearly family photoshoots is such a good way to document your growing family.

Personal Branding: As you start your business, grow, change, upgrade or refresh, new images are vital to keep your page updated and professional.

Tilanie is phenomenal to work with! She sees things few others do! Her quiet demeanour makes her exceptional working with kids and nervous subjects.

Tilanie Grote was the photographer for my recent art exhibition in Durban. She has a great eye for detail and is especially good at capturing entrepreneurs in their own context and space. She went above and beyond what I contracted her to do and her photographs allowed me to gain maximum online publicity for my art and my exhibition. Thank you Tilanie!

Come shoot day, I was blown away by Tilanie’s professional and organised approach. Tilanie kept us on track without rushing through anything, she constantly had helpful suggestions and used the time between outfit changes and makeup touch ups to take amazing flat lays and other images relating to my work and the feelings I wanted to convey as I elevate my personal brand.

When I got the first look at my images, I was absolutely blown away by how every single thing that was important to me was captured accurately and beautifully. Tilanie understood the assignment!
