Diana's Bridal Shower

These images are from a Bridal Shower i was lucky enough to shoot a little while ago. It was so amazing being a part of the experience, i was buzzing around as quietly as possible trying to capture all the special small details while hearing all the amazing stories and seeing how much each of these women cared for each other through the years. It makes me hope that when the time comes for me I have that many people who care about me and share this time with them. There was a lot of reminiscing followed with some superb cake!  

Congratulations to Diana, who got married last month!









A heart warming letter to every woman there that summed up their relationship. They were really touching. 











It was at the Shangri-La hotel with the most spectacular view!

A day at the beach










Do not be deceived by these calm and warm looking pictures, this day was ferociously windy!!! I also made the mistake of turning up to the shoot in just shorts. The wind was particularly annoying because we had to shoot in dresses - Marilyn moment! 
But it meant there were hardly any people around and the sand was beautifully flat. 

However we got it done super fast and then talked over coffee for longer than we shot :P Probably also because it was the barista's first day and ermagerd she took forever. And just because I'm sure everyone is eager to know, I had a slice of carrot cake and Joanne had the cheesecake. yum yum yum

I think that's my most favourite thing about photography, it allows me to meet some truly amazing people and share the most absurd and intimate stories you normally wouldn't tell a stranger. As a photographer you have to build a connection with those you work with and it's something I'll have to keep developing, but sometimes it's easy when you meet lovely ladies such as Joanne :) Thank you so much again!


I think i should take more random behind the scenes shots?

Summer Breeze



A while back I was lucky enough to shoot for the Tdesign lookbook and then I got the opportunity to shoot my favourite pieces of theirs as an editorial. It's no surprise that the jewellery has a fun and funky beach feel to them as that's where the designer, Tania, grew up!

I wanted to keep the shoot fun and free but also very bright to match the jewellery. The weather that day was terrible though - absolutely freezing! but we shot until the sun set :)

There's a wide range of jewellery and a new collection coming out soon so check her facebook page and like like like!

off shore










Editorial type shoot with the very beautiful and lovely Nikita Brown - such a beautiful girl, great heart and fantastic model. So lucky to have shot with her, despite the horrible cold windy weather we (more she) has to suffer through!. Also collaborated with Tdesign and got to shoot ger jewellery! I'll show the rest of that shoot and extras soon :) uni is keeping me busy at the moment and i'm not sleeping enough.

Wicked with Chanra










Started working on this blogpost around midnight and I'm pretty happy with it. Bringing in some of my graphic design skills here a bit :) Chandra is such a beautiful model and this was one of her first few shoots. The shoot was so much fun, it's so nice when you click and become friends with who you work with. I'd also like to add shooting in the bushes is not enjoyable for model or photographer, at all. I had so many tiny spiders on me, and I have to admit I freaked out a little. Oh well! All adds to the photos haha


Have a couple things lining up, like a jewellery shoot this Sunday woo!! So excited. So keep stalking this space, love you guys :3
