25.01.2022 Weight-loss and Self-love. I feel like were not aloud to put those two into the one sentence. If you love yourself your weight shouldnt matter. Your weight loss journey shouldnt be to find self love. Can I call bullshit? Can I scream it? Go back a few years and I absolutely hated myself. I hated myself so much I filled my body with junk that made me gain weight. I hated myself so much I would deny there was a problem. I was fit, but I was poisoning myself slowly. My shie...ld was a fake happiness that my size didnt effect me. But heres the truth. I was very effected. In fact sex for us, was a lights out or Im drinking for confidence affair. For years I was heavily drugged on medications to keep my crazy at a manageable level. Those in themselves made my weight skyrocket. I proudly wear my letters now, ASD GAD. Ive been misdiagnosed over the years with ADHD, BPD, BP, MDD, GAD... How could I love someone so broken that even I didnt understand what was going on? I had to find a way! So I started my weight loss journey. And what I discovered, that underneath all of that squishy protective armour, was me. I was here waiting! I was screaming to be let out. I had been hidden in darkness for years. And now I absolutely love me! Because this is the real me! The unmedicated, the some days overwhelmed, the stimming, the spontaneous, the breakdowns, the party animal (until 9pm!)! The jumping my poor husbands bones every chance I get because I feel good about me and he smells damn well amazing (day or night!). And I dont have any cares if I gain a few kg or lose a few, I actually dont own scales! Its all about how I feel. And I feel all the ranges of emotions! Its a spectrum of amazing when you feel so intensely. Some call it a shame, I say omg, I actually feel it all! So I feel, as someone who has been there and gone through it, that for some people (lets shout that again for those in the back... SOME PEOPLE!!) weight loss and self love are a hand holder. You should love your skin, absolutely! But if you need to make some changes to find yourself then you should not be judged! Hell kitten, this is your life, you damn well design it!!! But if your love comes from cake and curves then hell girl, you work that! What I wouldnt give for an ass! And I think cake is on the menu for today! Oh did I mention that the real me doesnt have much class? Im one of those looks pretty till she opens her mouth kind of chicks :P Its the bogan twang. Peace out my pretties. Be you, and learn to love you.

20.01.2022 Ok ok... Halloween is coming and I want to do some really out there Halloween style boudies. Nothing cheesy, just down right amazing and completely over the top.

Pick of the amazing and stunning Shelby from her recent boudie

18.01.2022 No rest for the wicked... There is 94 hours of work on my timeline and I only have 144 hours to do it and survive the week. Who needs sleep anyway. ... Saturday is glitter cocktail day, prepare for some extra cheeky sneak peeks to keep the weekend rolling.

17.01.2022 Neon milk baths. I was too excited to keep these secret, because oh my gawd. And what a perfect day to spend in the bath listening to Freak by Doja Cat. The bubble machine, well lets just say its my new favourite toy. I am in love with this set up.

17.01.2022 Someone come play with me!!!

16.01.2022 Powerful Mandy made a bold and fearless impression on me during her dark boudoir. My studio has been absolutely filled with amazing confident women owning their sexuality lately.

13.01.2022 Calling all Neon obsessed loves, I need you to come play. I want to fill the rest of my year (5 bookings available) with all the colour, the Smokey sexy, the dramatic. Comment below or inbox, first in best dressed.

12.01.2022 I stood in front of the mirror this morning and I had a moment where I started to point out things I hate about myself! WTF!!! Im putting on weight! My stomach is so flabby! Gosh my boobs are saggy. Am I looking 40 to you babe? I have wrinkles! I just look so tired and old!... The list went on. I stood there front on, then side on. I sucked my tummy in and sighed because I cant look like that every day. I squeezed the pockets of fat on my thighs. I almost cried. I am human. I am normal, this is normal. But it shouldve be. I shouldve wriggled my jiggly bits and smiled because they helped create 5 of the most amazing humans I know. I shouldve looked at my maturing face and been proud of the wisdom Ive gathered on my 40 year journey. I shouldve been thankful that I made 40 years! I shouldve appreciated that my breasts fed my 5 humans and are still fabulous at any height! I shouldve loved the fat pockets on my thighs because they are a symbol of how far Ive come. I should love my curves because they are mine. I should just love me as I am at any size. But I dont always. Some days I absolutely cant see it. I show myself these photos and I feel a small warming to my beautiful body. Some days I wake up thinking Im hot shit and I own that emotion too! Curve balls are sent at us for a reason, mine was sent to remind me to share my journey with you so that maybe someone else who woke up with hate will feel ok.

12.01.2022 Empowered VIP Shelby A girl should be two things: who and what she wants. -Coco Chanel... Lets talk about empowerment for a minute, I have my own ideals on what makes ME empowered and I have been sharing that with you. Some of you agree and find kinship in what I am saying. Thats great. But I cannot give you the outcome of empowered. I can throw some ingredients at you, help you mix it up, but the final outcome; well thats your own design. Make it your way and make it count. Just an FYI, we are booking into November for weekdays and weekday nights. And we have 3 weekend spaces left.

11.01.2022 Boudoir is not pornography... Let me repeat that. Boudoir is NOT pornography. ... It frustrates the hell out of me that something that empowers so many women to feel beautiful, sexy and find their love for themselves is tarnished as being dirty and inappropriate. Firstly, let me just say... I have absolutely nothing against pornography. Director Kayden Kross is an absolute genius with her dark and artistic adult films. They are like 50 shades of grey uncut and with none of the boring emotional bits just raw, honest... rough, romping. Nor do I think porn watching is a dirty thing. I think it can be completely healthy and normal to indulge in adult films. Now that’s out of the way, boudoir is nothing like pornography. Boudoir is about you feeling yourself and being absolutely empowered by your goddess-ness. It’s about being a queen (or king or what ever your identifier). It’s about subtleness, rawness, you-ness. It’s about suggestively posing and alluring that more is going on than it is. Its damn well hot and beautiful and one of the best things I have ever done on both sides of the camera. Boudoir is a body positive experience, it’s for everybody; boudoir doesn’t discriminate. It’s inclusive because all bodies are beautiful. But it’s definitely not pornography. I could list the ways it is nothing like pornography here but 8:50am is not the time to mention the words I would need to describe it. So instead I’m starting a hashtag campaign to raise awareness of the beautiful and empowering art we create at our body positive studio. This is how I’m going into 2021, banging the drum loud and clear that we no longer need to censor legitimate businesses because the public have a right to follow and unfollow (we’re all grown ups here!) Its almost 2021, people feeling empowered and body positive is a thing! #boudoirisnotporn Btw... you don’t have to take your clothes off to feel empowered or body positive, I’m not suggesting it’s the only way or the way for everyone... but it’s one way that has helped me to see that I am sexy and beautiful and sensual, have a lovely day and love yourself.

11.01.2022 Adventure Boudies galore! What a goddess, I absolutely love capturing beauties in the rawness of nature. Its special, and something truly unique. Ohhh bring on warmer weather and all the bathing in waterfall shots I have planned? Keen?

10.01.2022 Xmas mini boudoirs... Bring yourself ready to go for wickedly xmas special surprise. Weeknight spaces only available. Limited places. ... $150 includes 5 digital images of your choice. Inbox the page to book your space.

09.01.2022 I have been so keen to draw these!

08.01.2022 Milkbath sneak peek from this beautiful mumma who organised her bath session as a Fathers Day surprise! And some little news... Social media censorship is getting tighter and tighter, its hard for artists to share their work without being taken down and potentially loosing their pages and all the hard work to get followers etc. Particularly in the boudoir field. ... I personally hate censorship. As an adult, I feel it is my right to choose what I am comfortable viewing and what I am not. If I dont like something I can unfollow or hide the content. If its a legal business then you should be able to share your product as long as you have consent from your clients. My solution... Share on this page images that are safe according to social media law and start blogging (again) so people can see what we really do. Of course this is only with consent from our clients. A link to the blog will be added to our bio, Im not going to write too much because Ill loose mojo. Ive got a big day ahead of me. Drop a comment if your keen to see more images and dont mind going off FB to see them.

08.01.2022 Boudie Maternity Milkbath? Yes, yes please.

08.01.2022 New palettes arrived so I was super keen to jump in and have a play! Oh my oh my oh my! Black is the new pink!

07.01.2022 Yeah, Im curvy. So what? It is what it is and I am what I am. And guess what? I am happy! Boudie shoots arent just for thin women, it isnt just for curvy women, its not even just for young women or even just mature women. Single or married. Boudie shoots are for ALL women. In fact it isnt even just for women, Boudie shoots are for everyone. ... I said it, you read it... for everyone. Curvy, thicc, fluffy... what ever you want to call it, sexy comes from within and knowing your sexuality makes you beam brighter than the sun.

06.01.2022 My coffee cup says it all, Wanderlust is a must (its actually misspelled but hey...) This is when Im at my happiest, thermals, hot coffee and in the middle of nowhere contemplating life. I long for it, I physically react to not getting it. Anxiety goes wild when Im needing to just be in the bush. I would say its the call of my ancestors but I think its more the call of the bush. Today I just wanted to share that moment of vulnerability and calmness with you. I feel tha...t by sharing my journey, my strength and weakness I can help other beauties like you feel confident that your doing ok. This page is to showcase the work that I do but to also share my journey and to help empower you. Its not all photography. Sometimes its just a moment and a feeling. I hope your all at peace, I hope your hearts are full and I hope you are full of calm and love.

06.01.2022 I know I know I’m young... but I can still relate to way too many

05.01.2022 A capture from my most recent session with beautiful Jaimee. Gosh, what a queen! I use a flash with a Mahmoud adapter for all my dark boudoir. The only light in the room is the candles. The flash adds this dark illusion and some awesome spotty effects. Lighting is super important for the darker vibe stuff. I can create this effect day and night.

04.01.2022 New work uniform for boudoir/milkbath/empowerment days! My daughter thinks I look like barbie and hates it but I love it.

04.01.2022 Sharing because this is a bloody beautiful and powerful session! Halloween is coming Kittens

02.01.2022 Happy wet weekend Kittens! I am going to fill your feed with so many sassy images today and thought what better to prepare you than with one of my favourite images from my session. I look ... After doing this session myself (I usually take the images and pose this time I had Nikki take the images) I felt freaking amazing, sexy and like a queen! Things you need to know about boudoir with me: - It is a workout - Its easier to feel sexy than you think it will be (the rooms atmosphere will get you moody and vibing) - It takes about an hour for a standard boudoir session, longer if we include the dark room, shower & bath scenes. - You can have a light or dark set, thats your choice. - We supply props, robes and some shoes... you supply your lingerie and anything special you want to include. - The average boudie session has 50+ images that you get to keep! - Its not just a photography session, its a spoil. You will be spoiled. You will leave feeling spoiled. There is so much more to it, I will absolutely smash your feed today with some FYI and beautiful moments. I may even get myself all dressed and do some different scenes ;) Keen!

02.01.2022 I have no words. I googled and couldnt even find an appropriate quote to describe this image. I only wish more couples would do this. ... Wow. Keen?

01.01.2022 Winter vibes and grassy plains are the perfect setting for a steamy outdoor boudoir. Wowee. What an absolute Queen!
