“WHAT A JOURNEY it has been with Justine herself!

My experience with Galilee Image has been a POWERFUL and IMPACTFUL one. Justine flew all the way from Cape Town to Johannesburg to have a portrait shoot with me and I’m grateful that she did!
She has a tangible passion and interest for photography, as well as for the person she is shooting. She is genuine, full of life and definitely has a skillset to work with people!
This might or might not be for you, but if you are currently looking for a photographer I would highly recommend that you look no further and take your pictures with Justine – you will thank me later!”

“Justine is such a pleasure to work with. We’ve had the privilege of booking family shoots with her since 2020 and we make a point of reaching out to her whenever we travel from the U.S. to Cape Town. She’s so quick to respond to messages and always has a fun and new location to suggest to capture the memories. We recently attended a wedding that she was photographing also and I was amazed at how professional and efficient she was. Her pictures are truly amazing and the images she’s captured throughout the years will always have a special place in our hearts and on our walls. You’re one of a kind Justine. Thank you!”
– Juanita Louwrens

We were so blessed to have Justine take our family photos in 2019. Our pictures turned out amazing. Justine was professional, kind and very competent with our children.
Bonus, she did my makeup before hand! My husband was captivated by me!
Thank you Justine, we still cherish our photos.
