It's always fun collaborating with Summah. Even when she's very ill, it's the middle of winter and she wants me to wear a dress three sizes too small (in the chest area! Seriously though... I think we did such a good job of hiding that!) The dress is from Free People and I was styled by Summah in her own fabulous bohemian clothes.

I love how the rocky ones look like they're in the desert or some rugged hot landscape but we were actually right beside the road up the Maitai Valley! Sorry to spoil that for you... Photography is so magical! I hope you enjoy the results of our little adventure.

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of collaborating with three talented young woman for this photoshoot titled 'Wandering Spirits' by Summah Noakes. Modelling alongside me is Sunnie Zuleta and Gabrielle Wee, who are also both amazing photographers. 

We gathered at the Wainui Falls carpark in our beautiful hometown, Golden Bay, and slowly made our way up to the falls. Stopping many times to get shots of us chilling on the huge boulders and playing in the trees.

I had so much fun modelling for this project! You guys were a dream to work with!

This was my second time collaborating with Summah. I went over to her place with a bag of clothes and we went across the road to the park. It was autumn so we got some awesome shots in the dead leaves, and the rest were taken in and around her house.

These absolutely amazing masks were made at Community Art Works in Nelson, a huge thanks to Karl Wulff for letting us borrow them! This photoshoot was a collaboration between all of the models, Summah Noakes and myself. I was the stylist and I modeled aswell and Summah did the photography and came up with the original concept.
