Award-winning and deeply personal, my Johannesburg family photography celebrates the essence of connection — the laughter, love, and authenticity that bind families together.
Each portrait is crafted with artistry, precision, and emotion to transform a fleeting moment into timeless art. Whether it’s the warmth of a shared embrace, the playfulness of siblings, or the quiet tenderness between generations, every image tells your family’s story in light and form.
I specialise in creating fine-art family portraits that blend emotion and elegance. Through minimalist composition, expressive lighting, and natural interaction, I reveal the heart of what makes your family unique.
From intimate close-ups to dynamic group portraits, each image celebrates the joy and connection that make your family one of a kind. These portraits are more than photographs — they are heirlooms that will live on your walls and in your family’s story for generations.
Since 2005, I have been photographing Johannesburg families with a refined artistic vision shaped by decades of experience. My calm direction and warm personality make every session relaxed, genuine, and enjoyable — allowing emotion to unfold naturally.
Every image in this gallery reflects my belief that family is where every story begins — and where light, laughter, and love find their forever place.
Family photographs are more than pictures — they’re heirlooms that preserve connection, emotion, and legacy.

Passionate B and her infectious laughter behind the camera. Precious shots of moments never to be repeated. B is the only one who always has, and I mean, on every occasion, been able to get the whole family to cooperate and smile. So much so that the grumpy ones even admitted to enjoying the photoshoot.

You think Bridget Corke’s (BC) super professional online profile has you sold, but that’s before you meet the warm and funny personality behind the Pro! From the first discovery call, BC was in tune with my story and what I needed. Along with her professional advice, the shooting mood was, I want to say, almost celebratory. Being in that moment and appreciating its value with your loved ones was priceless. I have never chosen photos so hard because the product delivered at the end of this experience was beyond photography; its lives caught in precious moments of utter contentedness. Thank you for being such a marvel and for your gift of capturing irreplaceable moments. #JoyousTimeCapsules RIVERS KHUMALO
We did our photoshoot with Bridget today and we are so happy that we chose her. She is a fantastic, awarded photographer to start with but it’s her way with people and her personality that makes this photoshoot so special. She is fun and quirky and gets everyone at ease and that’s when you get the best photos. We’re actually planning to go back with our fur babies in 2 months. I think Bridget is amazing, she’s the best!!!! SUMANTHA PILLAY
It has been a pleasure working with Bridget! From start to finish she has been caring, considerate and professional. Her lovely personality and great sense of humour brought a lot of ease and immediate comfort to our interactions and brought my family and I out of our shells during the shoot! The photographs she produced were far beyond our expectations and the quality is simply unparalleled. I am glad we came across Bridget and had the chance to have these precious memories immortalised as beautifully as they were! Thank you Bridget! MUNYA MUNYURWA
Our home is filled with photographs of lasting memories. Bridget is an exceptional photographer who has captured the most heartfelt moments on our journey through parenthood. Her camera has captured the intimate moments of pregnancy, the joys of a newborn baby, the bumpy teenage years and the strong bond between mother and daughter. Bridget is intuitive and versatile to capture every moment of your life. Her deserved accolades and awards testify to her work, and we are thrilled to have her photograph our family. HELEN TONETTI
