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…

It’s such a joy to work with another model who exhibits intuitive posing relating to an environment. Thanks Madelyn. We worked with Polaroid type 85 expired since 2005, positive negative film in some of these, so zero photoshop for anyone wondering.    I haven’t had much time to upload all of the work I made…

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.

Picasso reflections

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….

Saskia, Zoe and Brooke

Almost everyone was very kind to send in their snap shots this year, so we can show you what a week with us is like. The video footage in the beginning is just a normal day. For those of you who were attendees and want this video, just head over to Vimeo and download it….

A birds eye view ~ Ella

© 2018 Zoe Wiseman ~ model: Ella Rose

These were so hard to edit. Almost each one was qualifying and my eyes crossed in the attempt to narrow it down.  Ella’s posing was pretty much dictated by the waves coming in and going out. It was a serious blend with the natural environment and she was so zen about it even when the…

Part 1 with Ella

I feel like Ella and I embarked on 2 shoots instead of one shoot because of the difference in the images. So here is part 1 with Part 2 coming soon…  I just love an empty beach. And those hair reflections!

Witty Eva Title here

Sorry about the title but I’m never really good at making titles. They always seem like overused platitudes. <insert Laugh here> On to the serious stuff.  Eva and I did a mega hike to our location and then coasted down the hill to coffee and back to the house for some relaxing photos. I hope…
