Every time I see live I am so moved.

Milo is one of those performers that instantly connects to the audience with their voice, their words and the way they move. Genuine, grounded, so so present and has such a beautiful and strong stage presence. I fall back in love with my job as a photographer when I see live tbh. 🥰 Here for it everytime 🤩

Alfie’s energy on stage is MAGNETIC! Such attention to detail in the choreo and eye contact to die for. 😵

It was incredible to photograph at the new location last month for Freakout the Afterparty. I used to photograph at the former Spiegel Tent before lockdowns and it was my favourite venue. The history, shooting in the round, the stained glass and creaky wooden floors.

Shooting aerials is so fun! Especially when spectacular performances like make this look easy! With vocals as the soundtrack, omg…so dreamy and powerful.

Finally got to meet fellow photog/videographer in person too. Such a good night all around. Thank you for having me and

Fantasy ball ✨

Literal magic. My jaw did not leave the floor. It has been a dream for a long time to capture ballroom and thanks to .hottie and family the dream came true 🥹 at last Saturday. What an honour to be in a room filled with this much love and community. The talent. The looks. The stage presence. The runway. Absolutely speechless! Thank you for having me. ❤️ More to come.

Seraphine in the Sanctuary. 😈💚

A few months ago I collaborated with Seraphine to take some images of her new ProDomme space, The Sanctuary. This space took my breath away. So many play things, and services offered from a holistic and full bodied approach when it comes to 🐝 DSM. Seraphine considers all five senses and ways to explore yourself that go deep.

We’ve collaborated multiple times over the years and it’s been a pleasure to hear about how she’s expanded her work in this space.

If you’re after some serious play with sensory (or sensory deprivation) experiences, she’s got an abundance of services on offer. 18+ only.

Loved this shoot with the iconic and magnetic

The textures and colours in this space…just 🥹😍

Looking to get my location kit compact for more location shoots in the new year. Any recommendations for affordable locations with character and textures galore that you love which are Naarm-based? Nudie friendly and inclusive only.

A few of my favourite cinematic landscape blinks from this year.

Featuring .fable

They say landscapes don’t do well anymore on this Zuck monster platform. But why change the way I shoot for the Zuck. We see the world in widescreen across the horizon and it’s beautiful. 😍

I’m supposed to write a letter to my body this week and I can’t find the spoons 🥄 or is it maybe this might be the scariest bit of homework I’ve ever been given? Other than math homework that is 😑

Has anyone ever done this? How did you start? Where did you write it? Did it happen in one big flow or did it exit you in tiny pieces across little bubbles of time? How did it feel? Was it all the feelings or was it numbness that arose? A feeling someone once told me was all the feelings at once but still somewhere sitting under the surface, waiting their turn, waiting for permission to breathe and be honestly felt without the shame or the guilt, two feels that feel frozen and immovable at times. Did you feel a release? Did you invite the release? Did it come slowly or was it woven into your days like a speed train of realisations? Did things emerge that you least expected? Did compassion and anger both walk the tight rope in your words? Or did they appear at all?

Throwback to one of my most favourite shoots of all time with a team of my faves. All heart with all the love of spooky things, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of decay. The recognition that a a slow burn of loss, a dismantling of grief come with no words that do it justice. And sometimes you’re just immersed in the surrender only it can give. Often alone, sometimes lonely as hell but always rooted in something so very, very real.

backstage

Continually in absolute awe with deep respect for those that put their hearts on the stage. Pieces of themselves tethered to music and peeling to a reveal that takes a gorgeous amount of vulnerability, drive and preparation to do so that the audience feels it.
