Leopard print life


Leopards &; leopard print. Magestic and awesome and my favourite pattern ever. 
I love to wear leopard print, I love to style with leopard print and my couch is covered in the most divine leopard print. And before animal activists start sending me hate mail OBVIOUSLY i'm referring to leopard PRINT not the real life animal skin. 
Leopards should be in the wild OR paid homage to in print.

While researching for some upcoming Summer Campaign shoots I came across these beautiful editorials featuring leopards. I'm going to assume the animals featured are happy and healthy and enjoy the images peacefully.

Greetings from Wanderland...


It's a little bit Blue Lagoon with a dash of Eat, Pray Love! Greetings from Wanderland was a short trip to a desert island where the smell of incense was as intoxicating as the lush green rainforest. Bronzed skin, mala beads and bare feet are all the accessories you need for sun, skin and spirituality.

Afternoon Haze // An adventure into the hinterland and a leap of faith


The creation of this lookbook was the beginnings of something beautiful, and I don't just mean the amazing shots. This was the first time I met the bunch of people who would become my dream team. A bunch of creative talents and generous collaborators who I've been lucky enough to have made some pure magic with.

We took to the hinterland and tracked down this wood cabin which is quite honestly perfection. Hand built, earthy and lashed with Australiana themed trinkets (note the kangaroo above the fire place), this was the perfect backdrop to the rich, layered textures of this Spring Summer 15 collection by Tree of Life.
