What a year it has been!
I didn’t travel overseas this year, instead choosing to stay at home and pay off some debts and focus on shooting a little bit more.
I started 2017 with a photoshoot with @coolicio in a gorgeous venue called Crane Bar and I couldn’t have been happier with the outcome!
My set Thumper is over 2,300 likes and slowly rising! Who knows Easter 2018 might be the month!
Every time I shoot with @coolicio there are plenty of laughs and smiles to be had. She's so much fun and it was fantastic to be able to catch up with some of the other girls and watch them shoot as well!
Pretty shortly after that I flew up to Brisbane to work with a good friend of mine whom I actually met while on my travels around Europe back in 2015! Go check out her work on instagram: Eranoraandfawn
While up there I also shot a super sexy multi with babe @sirenn shot by @frankndame called Lavender
Seriously though! I have no idea how this babe isn’t not PINK already!! Our set is sooo close to 2,000 likes so if you haven't seen it yet, be sure to check it out! Lavender
2017 was also the year that I told myself I was going to be more active and explore. Towards the end of this year, however, i've kinda fallen off of the wagon a bit.
The snap below was taken at the Blue Mountains in NSW
I also got in a lot of animal snuggles and of course doggo’s still love me as much as I love them 💕
The white fluff ball below is actually my dog, Gizmo, who is just a little bit special haha.
2017 was literally full of photo shoots for me and I can’t wait to see what 2018 brings! I’ve worked with so many incredible artists and one set of images is soon to grace your screens in early 2018!
I have a new set due to be released, shot by @danielklaas called Lovelace which hits MR in just over 2 weeks!
Starting to reach the mid point of 2017 I got to work with another photographer whose style wasn’t anything I’d ever done before but found that I enjoyed quite a lot! I mean, who doesn’t like getting naked outdoors?
Photographer: Gregeckels
Working with Gregeckels opened doorways to work with other artists such as TheOscarmikeproject who I got to beach hop around the north of Sydney with!
Exploring places I’d never seen before!
Australia sure does have some gorgeous landscapes!
I started and finished my second LOTR themed tattoo piece! These were both custom drawn by an amazing artist I found through instagram called michaela_fletcher and inked by my artist who has done all my work.
This year has also been an incredible year for some seriously wicked artworks to be sent to my way! I’m always amazed at people’s talents and the below artists simply blew me away!

The colours of these two below pieces are so stunning!

Seriously, those colours!!
Stepping out of my normal zone of what I’ve always done I got to work with Catalinabriceno and do a photoshoot with an awesome lighting set up! I got covered in coconut oil to give my skin that super shiny look 🙈
Towards the end of this year I flew back up to Brisbane for the second time this year specifically for the SGAU Ball. I’m kinda super bummed that I wasn’t able to shoot during the massive shootfest they were holding at the same time, but that didn’t stop me from catching up with as many of the girls as I could!
Below is @msreckless @jaskola and @arachnie

Seriously such a fun night! Pretty sure I left a trail of glitter from Brisbane to Sydney with that dress haha 💕 (dress is from Hello Molly)
And although I didn’t get to shoot for SG while I was up there I did catch up with my friend Erenoraandfawn and work with her 💕 keeping the glitter vibes alive
Back in Sydney and Christmas week I spent Christmas Day at my uncles place, visiting family and all the new additions to his property. The horse giving me hair/cheek nibbles is Jackson and he's nearly 2.
The newest addition to the family though is this gorgeous little foal called Milo.Look at his little hooves ahhhh!
The absolute highlight of 2017 though was getting to watch my brother marry the woman of his dreams! I have never felt or seen so much love in one day and everything just seemed to fall together to seamlessly.
How was your 2017? What was your highlight pen achieved goals?
Happy NYE everyone!
