Yoga photography shoot in Crescent Head, Mid North Coast NSW.     Yoga Photography marries two of my greatest passions.  We did this styled photo shoot on our property in Crescent Head.  Bringing our own lives into the shoot made it simple and a lot of fun.   I have been practicing yoga for 17 years…exactly half of my life.  It has been on and off over the years but these days I find yoga such an important part of my life, physically, mentally and spiritually.  I can’t imagine ever going without it again.  It has also lead me to great friends, beautiful destinations and amazing experiences.         I am so grateful for my weekly yoga meet up with my good friends.  We practice an hour of yoga each Sunday morning, followed by half an hour of meditation.  Afterwards we share a pot (I mean a five litre pot) of chai, with plates fruit and nuts.  It is a sacred part of every week for me.  I’m also doing two classes a week at The Yoga Shala in Port Macquarie.   These photos are from a recent shoot I did for I am That Yoga, a yoga […] Read More
In my past life, working as a freelance photographer in Sydney, I had the pleasure of working with the wonderful creative team at Tree of Life, shooting their bohemian fashion, jewellery and homewares.  We had so much fun at head office and on locations around the city, photographing their pretty bohemian products from India, Napal, Thailand and other exotic locations.   I recently guest posted on the Tree of Life Blog about my transition from working 80 hour work weeks in the big city, to slowing down, moving to the country and building my dream home in the incredibly beautiful coastal town of Crescent Head, with my fiance, James.   You can see images from the post below.

Fashion is a fun industry to work in.  It’s fun to wear, it’s fun to style and it’s fun to photograph.  For me, it’s very important to make sure the fashion I’m involved in is “clean” – good for the environment and good for the fashion industry workers, ie. Environmentally and socially sustainable. Following recent disasters like the Rana Plaza Disaster, in which thousands of garment workers in Bangladesh were killed and injured, and yesterday’s footwear factory fire in the Philiipines in which 72 were killed, the industry is shifting and  consumers are beginning to demand more transparency of the supply chain and more ethical fashion industry practices.  Fashion Revolution is one organisation doing amazing things to advance this important movement.   Photography plays a major role in promoting sales of products in the fashion industry.  Being an Eco Photographer is important to me.  It  means I support the ethical brands that are part of this fashion revolution.  These are often new, grass roots labels who are building a name for themselves from the ground up. Australian sunglasses brand, Chief Eyewear are one such brand that I had the pleasure of working with.  Their bamboo sunglasses are high quality and […] Read More
