Swings, fallen leaves and slanted trees

The last time Brooke and I made photos in Kauai our luck wasn’t oh so great. I love the photos we created in 2016, but there were complications with a mean lady that shortened our day of making them. 2022 made up for all that. We found such a serene location and took our time…

  Zen garden in the front, surfers to the left and silence to photograph to the right of it all. Somewhere in the middle on the way back were these trees. I love that I found a spot in the water that looks like an eye. Anne held her poses on the pupil of it…

Hello friends! This year Zoe Fest is a going to be a little Zoe Rest. One small intimate group of models and photographers in one house along Australia’s Great Ocean Road.

5 Minutes with a Bunny

Due to so many models to work with at our event it is sometimes hard to find time to fit everyone in. So I attempt to fit everyone I didn’t get to work with for a full day or 1/2 day on the last day all at once. This leaves little moments to spend individual…

I love working with Anne. Sharing a house with her is fun too. Especially when she finds spiders. Enjoy the video and the images.

The early afternoons made wonderful reflections in the swimming pool in the house. I think I timed it right for a couple of these. They seem rather Picasso-esque to me. In one of the images it almost looks like one of his strange faces in his paintings. My imagination is always seeing shapes in shadows…

I love the work I make with Lucy. When two people are looking for images together it all sort of sorts itself out. Keep looking for the light…. or the shadow. All these images within a 45 minute walk that started right out the front door of the house. Noosa was a brilliant backdrop.  Enjoy….

We were very lucky in our house (layout and housemates): there was beautiful light, lots of space, gorgeous surrounds…I very much enjoyed the ability to shoot from above to get this series. I knew I wanted to showcase Brooke Lynne’s amazing flexibility, but somehow still keep her contained.  The circular rug proved a perfect stage. …
