Meet Jade – Founder & Lead Photographer

Photography has been part of Jade’s life for as long as he can remember. Growing up with a father who was, and continues to be, an accomplished wildlife artist, he was immersed in a creative environment from an early age. Surrounded by art and encouraged to see the world differently, he developed a deep appreciation for visual storytelling that would ultimately shape his career.

Future Star Photo was born from a desire to bring an exceptionally professional standard of photography to schools. Jade believes that every learner has a unique story worth preserving – from the excitement of a child’s very first school portrait to the determination of an athlete on the field and the pride of a matric student celebrating a milestone.

Today, Future Star Photo partners with schools to deliver premium school portraits, sports photography, event coverage, and visual media that celebrate achievement, build school pride, and create lasting memories for learners and their families. Jade’s commitment is simple: to provide schools with a seamless, professional photography experience while creating images that families will treasure for generations.
