We acknowledge the Gubbi Gubbi people, the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we live. We pay our respects to Elders, past and present of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nations.

If you have followed along here for a while, you will know that I love styling shoots for creatives, business owners, and indie Australian brands.

@tessmmiller happened to be all three of those; so we LOVED working on this shoot of her in her studio!

It’s been such a joy watching her work travel far and wide, and we couldn’t be prouder of her—especially since she’s a fellow Sunshine Coast local.

Showing the process behind the shoot day at Stanle

Showing the process behind the shoot day at Stanley Project… but making it edgy with the raw audio. (Until you hear the sounds I make opening things and then it loses its edge.)😆

Grateful to have collaborated with such an amazing group of suppliers and creatives on a home this special!

Behind the scenes at Figtree for our very special Home Beautiful shoot.

Having styled the interiors previously, it was a joy to return and style it again for the shoot.

We’ll be sharing more about the incredible suppliers involved soon, but for now enjoy this behind-the-camera moment… including yet another shoot where @mindicooke and I showed up in the same shirt! Lol!

After months of patient waiting, we’re so excited

After months of patient waiting, we’re so excited to finally share that our Figtree Project has been featured in this month’s Australian Home Beautiful.

This was a deeply considered project, spanning almost two years, and one I’m incredibly proud of. Working closely with my clients, I oversaw the furniture, art and object curation, as well as the shoot styling too.

This home represents them, their children, and grandchildren, with their family story woven into every piece and detail.

We have so much more to share about this officially 'beautiful' home, but for now, please join us in celebrating our clients and their slice of paradise.

Started off the year making some wonderful memorie

Started off the year making some wonderful memories… this year when I’m not at work I’m doing something new every month… last month was an art class, this month was a concert… and in the studio I’m trying new things too! It’s been a fun way to start the year. 🫶

One of my least favourite parts of my job? The wai

One of my least favourite parts of my job? The waiting. Honestly, I feel like I’m always waiting for a project to be published.

Back in the day, the wait was agonising. Today… still agonising. Some things never change! But if waiting means our work ends up in magazines, well, I’m happy to wait, pretend I’m fine, and will it into existence!

So, to celebrate my ongoing (and very patient) waiting… here are some of my favourite shoots from last year.

Want a closer look behind the scenes? Our newslet

Want a closer look behind the scenes?

Our newsletter is where we share studio updates, recent projects, creative thoughts, things we’re loving; and occasionally a recipe of my Mum's that we genuinely can’t stop thinking about.

Think of it like a small, free magazine delivered to your inbox once a month. No spam. No door to door salesman energy. Just good design, visual storytelling, a short personal letter from me, and a little bit of joy.

If you like thoughtful spaces, beautiful visuals and creative ramblings that make you feel like you just got back in touch with your old 1990's penpal, you’ll fit right in.
