Angela contacted me after leaving an abusive relationship because she wanted to feel sexy and confident again. She booked her shoot with a friend who she said "packs enough courage for both of us" but let me tell you, I've never seen anything but courage...
Hey babe! I'm here to rant today. I'll add some gorgeous photos to keep you going, though, k? We don't actually want to lose weight The truth is, no-one really cares how much they weigh. I mean, apart from jockeys and MMA fighters. The rest of us,...
This spring's experimental shoot was something I've wanted to play with for years- projector nudes. I've admired this kind of art for a long time, and last year I bought a projector so I could try it out. Then things got busy, life got full,...
This is my absolute favourite thing I've experienced in a long, long time. I don't often take the time to watch videos but I heartily recommend you make time for this one- I'm glad I did. Too-much woman Gina Hatzis is a true inspiration. Loving yourself...

Bali was nothing like I imagined. I don't exactly know where I got my ideas about Bali from, or even why I decided I needed to go. But I had a clear emotional picture of the place- serene, with lush vegetation, cool morning breezes (?!), and...
My favourite part of being a boudoir photographer is showing people their photos. The gasps, the shocked "Is that really me?!", the excitement, the relief, the tears...
By now you know my basic philosophy- if it's fun with your clothes ON, wouldn't it be even more fun with your clothes OFF? So when Priyaa Ravi of Herbal Henna Arts approached me with the idea doing a nude henna body art shoot, I...
Stephanie is fun and vibrant and sensual and she did a shoot a few months ago that I am gonna blog the SHIT out of. But today I want to share her fabulous wisdom, rather than her fabulous...
I first photographed Janet years ago when I was just a little baby photographer. I didn't know her that well, and was surprised by the sexy energy she had in front of the camera- this glimpse into a side of her that I'd never seen,...
