It’s chaotic. It’s frenetic. Sunday morning is unfolding at family homes across Australia.

#educate  Some of my portraits were recently viewed by a lovely woman, who after gasping image after image, said you must have a really expensive camera…I am almost sure she meant it as a compliment ???

A beautiful Dream Shoot... Alexandra The Lady of Lysterfield Lake.

 I was playing with marketing and design yesterday, doing some research on how to organically grow your Instagram followers. 

I can finally release the 2nd series of conceptual images photographed at Melboune's Emerald Peacock titled "Speak Easy". 10 of the images in this set have been published in Beau Nu Magazine

I had 11 women in my studio shooting a Body Positive Campaign....and what an amazing day it was.  Many of these beautiful women stepped way outside their comfort zone to essentially bare almost all to a camera and each other.  Why would they do this???  

...she was inspired by the beautiful ornate baroque mirrors on the walls...My Golden Goddess...she was risque, decadent and regal.

Welcome back to part two of Decadent - Concept to Publication if you haven’t read part one it can be found here

Having finalised all the props and made all the cup cakes its almost time to actually take some photo 

To celebrate my first publication in the July Victorian issue of Beau Nu Magazine, I thought I would share with you a 2 part post showing how the creation and visualisation of Decadent evolved and a behind the scenes video of the shoot itself.  

Inspirations for my concept shoots can come from a piece of clothing, a word, an emotion or a location.  This particular shoot was from the latter.

I thought I would share a quick behind the scenes of the makings of a crown for an Ice Queen concept.  

How much are your memories worth?  I was thinking about this at an obscure hour this morning and it all started with our tv.....the thought process is a little disjointed but stay with me (it was  really really early), I promise it will all make sense in the end.

This is the last Behind the Scenes video from the weekend shoot, there is still more to come from this series but they are still in the concept stage. 

This behind the scenes video is for the first part of the journey of blending into a new and strange environment and how we try not to be noticed.

This shoot was inspired by a silver pair of ski pants which my son found in an Opp shop. It is evolving into a series of images which follows a persons arrival, watching their internal struggle with the want to blend and conform, versus their innate need to be able to express their own individuality, in an environment that is new and unknown.

So a couple of days ago while shooting with my favourite model Miss Alex, we decided to pull out one of my $5 thrift store finds a SX70 polaroid camera,
