Our Bush Christmas: Festive Snacks

The first rains have arrived, the bush is thick and green and we’re witnessing all the new life that appears at this time of year, it’s Christmas time! In celebration of all things Christmassy, we teamed up with Shara Barrell from Shara B Photography to create a Christmas shoot in the bush.

Fresh, festive décor ideas

This Christmas, we’re steering away from garish red and gold palettes and gaudy smiling Santas (don’t get us wrong, these are fun too) and trying something a little different in the bush. We’ve looked at inspiration from all over the world, and it’s wonderful to see how many foreign style elements work so well in an African setting.
