25.01.2022 Brrrrr... busting out my new winter workboots for an afternoon of admin today. Diving into my out of control inbox. Please send chocolate. #boganbling #bluesuedeshoes #happyfeet #toastietoes #ugg #swarovski
25.01.2022 Book launch at The Sun theatre this Saturday is a sellout! So honoured to be speaking as part of this wonderful collective of generous mamas. #pinchingmyself #myheartinprint #storytelling #workingmums #wonderwomen by @louisecorrecha
24.01.2022 Solopreneurship is lonely. My biggest mistake was going it alone. Then luckily, three years ago, I joined the She Will Shine tribe. These incredible women are my business besties. They keep me sane, focused and brave. So many of them have become clients and treasured friends too. On balmy Friday night we dined together on our rooftop, under fairy lights, thunderous clouds and epic lightning. It was a fittingly dramatic setting for celebrating 2017. We shared admiration, inspiration and enough bubbly to help me forget that I can no longer wear high heels on hot nights. Thank you Danielle Price for curating this fabulous gang, and for hosting heartfelt events that never fail to make me teary with gratitude. xo https://www.facebook.com/SheWillShineBiz/
24.01.2022 Took my every day family to meet my photography industry family today. Heart bursting with pride seeing my 8yo so inspired by the incredible creativity and craft mastery of Australia's very best photographic artists. There is nothing quite like the Australian Professional Photography Awards for an inspiration overload. So proud of those brave enough to put their heart's work up to be judged. And always impressed by the huge volunteer effort that makes this event so wonderful. This is our photographic industry at its very best - encouraging, generous, striving for perfection, all heart and big hugs. Congrats to the winners. And thanks again to @aipp_official #inspirationoverload #appa #aipp #2018goals
23.01.2022 Gavin Blue is my hero. After the loss of his newborn daughter Alexandra in 2006 he created a charity called Heartfelt. Heartfelt is a volunteer organisation of professional photographers who give the gift of photographic memories to families that have experienced stillbirths, premature births or have children with serious and terminal illnesses. All services are provided free of charge. ... Heartfelt has looked after over 8,000 families to date. Next weekend Gavin is running his first marathon - 42kms to raise enough money to fund 42 days of Heartfelt sessions. He's raised half the funds already. But we really need your help. Click the image to make a donation now. And make a difference for families facing the unimaginable pain of losing a child. I am so proud to be part of the Heartfelt team. Run Gavin! Run!

21.01.2022 They've been my favourite corporate client for years. And today I officially join the Bupa team as their new Head of Internal Communications for Australia and New Zealand. Got those first day feels and a spring in my step. I love beginnings!
21.01.2022 I cant think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself said Emma Stone. Loretta Hart is on a very short list of people I'd happily jump out of bed pre-dawn for. Watching the first light of the day dance on her smiling face was a wonderful way to create these branding images for her mentoring business. What I really love about Loretta is that she's not content with a superficial answer. She wants to know what you really believe. And ...far out that deeper connection feels good! She is truly beautiful in every way. And she's dedicated to helping other women find their glow again too. Everyone should be so lucky to have a Loretta in their life. http://www.facebook.com/lorettahartmentor/
20.01.2022 This time, last week, my good friend Loretta Hart hosted her inaugural Happy Chicks Connection event. In her absolute element! Loretta was magnetic and everyone left with a little of her gorgeous glow. If you'd like some beautiful images of you doing your thing, I can help. And if you want more happiness in your world, Loretta's your lady. http://www.facebook.com/groups/happychickscollective/
20.01.2022 I quiz all my clients to help create meaningful portraits they'll treasure. But I've never received a hand written, laminated, and hand delivered brief before now. Working on a birthday wish for a 9yo dance fan who says I'm her hero. Excuse me, I seem to have something in my eye... *sniff*
20.01.2022 Proud to belong to a professional community that's all for inclusion, diversity and love. Thank you Australian Institute of Professional Photography, and Photobat for this snap of us today. #voteyes #loveislove #aippsaysyes
18.01.2022 If you have a little one starting school soon, take lots of photos of them this summer. Because by next, their smile might look like Ben's #allhewantedforchristmas #missinghistwofrontteeth #gappygrin
17.01.2022 I've married hundreds of people. I was a civil celebrant for almost a decade. With every ceremony I officiated we noted the injustice and wished for change. Teary with relief tonight, knowing that Australia is not as intolerant as I feared. Delighting in my rainbow filled feed. Feeling lucky to live in a city so colorful, loud and proud. Happy to see inclusiveness and care in action at my workplace. And crying happy tears for all those who now know the majority want to see them say they do, if they choose. #yes #marriageequality #catchupcanberra #loveislove #australiasaysyes #phew
17.01.2022 Why would I trade the flexibility and fun of freelancing for a corporate gig? THIS! It's an honour to belong to the talented team of story tellers supporting carers and personalities like these.

17.01.2022 Spent today creating storytelling magic with these wonderful entrepreneurs. Melbourne put on glorious weather for our regional and interstate visitors. Proud of my beautiful city! And so very proud of these brave peeps who put themselves front and centre today and rocked it like the professionals they are.
14.01.2022 Hot off the press! I am proud as punch to have played my part in co-creating this beauty. When @drosswalls invited me to contribute my story alongside my idol @missyhigginsmusic and friends @uncannyannieblog @theeventhead @rhiannon_colarossi of course I jumped at the chance. But then actually writing it unearthed all sorts of un-dealt-with demons. And now you can read all about them in chapter seven - eeek! Available instore at Readings, Dymocks and Booktopia now. http://finch.com.au/books/working-mums #myheartinprint #storyteller #thejuggleisreal
13.01.2022 Glam games today at my favourite play space. A fabulously fun Friday with these two beautiful souls. #onlyworkwithacepeeps #brandbuilding #businessstorytelling
13.01.2022 Really looking forward to my upcoming Storytelling Masterclass. Join us and find new ways to foster fans who know, like, trust and want to pay you. It's a fundamental skill for business and personal branding. And it's fun too! Our last session sold out, so grab your ticket if you fancy a seat at this table.
12.01.2022 That Fri-yay feeling! Here's to weekends that rock like Zerafina. https://www.facebook.com/ZerafinaMusic/
12.01.2022 When was the last time you changed your mind? We're busy being distracted. And getting better at filtering the clutter and noise. But have we stopped listening to anything that challenges us? Where do you go to find food for thought? #80secsinsidemyhead #mondaymusing #foodforthought
12.01.2022 Hey, Loner Ranger, I see you. Stop being a solo hero.
11.01.2022 When you're feeling blue, or wondering what to do, hang out with four-year-olds. They've all the wisdom, with no filter, and not so much experience that they've forgotten what matters. I spent my morning photographing kinder kids. The play is messy, the laughs are easy, and the conversation is always enlightening. Monday funday at this end.
10.01.2022 Lighting a candle tonight in honour of all the Heartfelt families and beautiful angel babies I have visited. Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. Sending much love to anyone living with such loss. And in awe of Heartfelt founder, Gavin Blue, who ran the Melbourne Marathon today and raised more than $12,000 in donations to support 200 more Heartfelt families on their darkest day. When all hope seems lost, there are people like Gavin willing to be the light. Thankfully.
10.01.2022 It's a blue sky, sunny Friday and I am feeling grateful for this gorgeous workspace. No mountain of washing begging, no dishes to be done, and not a Lego landmine in sight! Some weeks working from home is just not good for me. And here I get to bounce ideas around with some of the most inspiring business women I know. Co-working wins! #shewillshine
09.01.2022 When she sings, she'll stop you dead in your tracks. And that's just one of her many stunning skills. Songwriter, stage craft coach, groover and video whiz, Zerafina is one uber talented woman. She has such soul. And it oozed out of her into my camera lens this afternoon. We created so many fabulous images together, and if you can't wait for more, you can find her here... https://www.facebook.com/ZerafinaMusic/
09.01.2022 Photography has taken me to some glamorous places. Today's portrait shoot was at a sewerage treatment plant. Got creative and some gorgeous results. Luckily my poo joke game is strong, I'm mum to two boys. #businessportraits #businessstorytelling #womeninbusiness #createwithjade #pooisalwaysfunny
08.01.2022 80% of success is showing up.
08.01.2022 Makes my heart happy to see clients sharing their story and being their awesome selves out loud. Check out this cracker example by @lucaslovescars "You don't often see me on this feed. It's not that I'm shy, it's because Lucas Loves Cars is not about me....it's about the toys that we sell. But I wanted to share something so that you could get to know me a little bit better. Hi My name is Helle - think Hella-Bella. If you ever see this skirt.... it's me. It's one of a kind... and was made by my clever Mum. Oh Mums, what would we do without them eh? I treasure mine every day, because I know I'm lucky to still have her around. She's so creative and clever... A while ago I was trying to figure out what to wear to a networking event. Have you noticed how Naomi Simson of @redballoonexperiences always wears red? I wanted to have something with cars. Not an easy task let me assure you! 3 days after I mentioned it to Mum she gave me this skirt. It still doesn't have a button at the back. So this is me, and my fabulous skirt." www.lucaslovescars.com.au #shiningexample #businessstoryteller #businessphotographer #standout #doyou See more
08.01.2022 "Into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul", author John Muir perfectly describes my afternoon with this ethereal and powerful woman. We met by chance. She changed me profoundly. And now we're friends by choice. She's little, but far out she is a fierce force for healing this world. In awe of incredible Edi. And her beautiful wardrobe!
06.01.2022 "I want to run a dance studio. But first I will be a famous dancer, because then more people will want to come to my classes." Jack, age 11. This afternoon we played on the rooftop at my studio. But I can't wait till the day I can visit his! This gorgeous boy is destined for greatness.
05.01.2022 I am a big believer in the power of ceremony. I love that meaningful ones help us to pause, reflect, connect and celebrate milestones that matter. So when Clare shared her 40th birthday plans, I was honoured to be invited to document them. We met at dawn, she walked the labyrinth, then she invited her most trusted friends to paint her body. It was a powerful act of self-love, friendship and goddess goodness. Quite unlike anything Id witnessed before. ... I knew from our first conversation that wed be friends. And I love the fierce and fabulous feminine wisdom that Clare brings into my life now. My camera has led me to some truly wonderful people. And I do know just how lucky I am that they trust me to share these moments. xo (Shared with permission)
04.01.2022 It's flippin' Fri-yay! And jumping Jack perfectly illustrates my mood. That moment when everything changes with a single phone call. Well, that! Will share deets soon. That, and the fact that I have a girls weekend planned, with two powerhouse women who've been a constant in my life for more than 20 years. Pop. Fizz. Clink. Giggle. Let's get this party started!
03.01.2022 Spent my Sunday snuggling this spunk. Lucky me. Remy, five months.
02.01.2022 Last chance to join my Storytelling Masterclass tomorrow. Grab your ticket here... http://shewillshine.com.au/pages/insight.html#storytelling Really looking forward to this one!
01.01.2022 Live from the Australian Professional Photography Awards judging. This. In 5 rooms at once. For 3 full days. All by volunteers. Incredible to witness.
01.01.2022 I want to live in a more inclusive world. Where diversity is celebrated, not segregated. Which is why I loved witnessing this incredible woman profoundly changing minds and lives this morning. Chrissie Davies just helped 50+ gymnastics teachers to better include children with challenging behaviours. Parents, carers, teachers, anyone dealing with "tricky kids" call Chrissie. She can help. May we all see the child, not just their behaviours. And find empathy we can use constructively. Like Chrissie. http://chaostocalmconsultancy.com/
01.01.2022 Big day for me and my little business. Big news coming soon. But felt time for a fresh cover image. Sure pays to know a team of talented women who can make me look swish! Photos by Kate Dyer of Urban Safari Photography. Makeup and hair by Stacie Sinclair. Dress by Sprinkle Emporium.
01.01.2022 Today the Hon Daniel Andrews, Premier of Victoria, and our local state MP, Marsha Thomson, visited us at the Dream Factory to see female entrepreneurs collaborating and kicking goals. So proud to belong to this incredible collective.
01.01.2022 Woah! What a day. Dug deep and found gems at my Storytelling Masterclass this morning. There were tears and laughs with this room of brave, real, and inspiring female business owners. Totally moved me. Then tonight, big hugs and a champagne toast as I wrapped up my first semester of lecturing the Digital Marketing Certificate course for ADMA. My students aced their exams and I was all puffed up with pride. Oh... and I also said YES to my biggest opportunity yet. Head spinning and heart happy. It's been quite the day. Will no doubt be smiling in my sleep tonight. snap thanks to Danielle of She Will Shine. #somedaysarediamond #businessstorytelling #manifestingmagic
