Creating & Capturing Life's Precious Moments
I had no real idea of what I was to create when I took the original photos used in this piece, any of them. But it was late at night and I had been reading Warheart by Terry Goodkind, and this image kind of struck me about the Lost Souls and rooms of safety where…

Oops, I think I missed a week (or maybe two) in there somewhere. Things have been getting a little hectic, hey it happens right? Now that we are officially out of lockdown, no Covid cases for nearly a month….woohoo. We are back travelling and doing the things we love. But more on that later… Now…

I have been playing with the mixer brush in Photoshop, I have been revelling in just creating art for the fun of it and isn’t that the point? We create because we enjoy it, it doesn’t really matter what ‘IT’ is. The feeling of joy when we create, the sense of purpose, the sense of…

I often surprise myself, when and where my inspiration comes from. Earlier in the day a friend of mine posted a couple of bird photos, raven or crow (I prefer ravens but I am not 100% what these are) and I asked if I could ‘steal’ them to play with. Kellye kindly sent me two…

I recently did a shoot with Alexia and some incredible headpieces by Verdessa Fairy. This particular photo screamed to have a little more treatment. There was something so fairylike, but also so strong and regal, it reminded me of the tales of the Fairies at the bottom of the garden. I used to believe in…

It is said that we are born alone and that we will die alone, it is what we do with the time in between that is important. The truth is that we are not born alone, we are more often than not born into a sterile environment to hopefully be swept up into loving arms.…

I have been featuring some recent artwork from a Mermaid beach shoot, but this is probably my favourite. The actual water was shot in a pool in Bali back in 2017. I had fun use the Puppet Warp feature in Photoshop, as Jess was actually kneeling in the sand…she didn’t really look like she was…
