24.01.2022 NEW BLOG! I’ve been a little bit quiet lately because I’m on the social media naughty list (but hopefully not Santa’s naughty list!) from last month’s blog post ordeal but don’t worry - ya girl has been using her timeout productively! I did wanted to post this sooner but I thought it would be best to spread my posts further apart just in case Zuckerberg still has his eye on me! Here's the link! Feel free to share x https://www.leafandlace.com.au//101-compliments-that-aren/

24.01.2022 GUESS WHO FINALLY FINISHED MAKING HER WEBSITE!!! That’s right - this boss lady!!! So excited that I will be able to share more content with you all without risking being sent to social media jail. Checkmate Zuckerberg! ...

22.01.2022 I'm so excited for the next few months. I have some little projects in the making and I can't wait to share them with you all!

19.01.2022 I would like to introduce myself. My name is Shelby. I like photography, nature and self-love. Through these passions, this little project, Leaf & Lace, was born. It started six years ago, a friend of mine had just come back from Europe. On her trip, every town she passed that had a ‘welcome to xxx’ she would jump out of her van and take a topless photo. I remember thinking that sounded so liberating. At the time I was 19 and I wasn’t sure if I would have the guts to do somet...Continue reading

19.01.2022 New blog Whether it’s your first time or tenth time booking a boudoir session with me, having a few nerves before your session is completely normal! To help you feel a little more prepared for your session, I’ve down a few tips on how to get you feeling ready https://www.leafandlace.com.au//7-tips-on-how-to-prepare-/

16.01.2022 So yesterday Facebook did the dirty on me and removed this post because apparently it breaches "Community Standards". I've also had this post removed twice on Instagram too. Forget free the nipple. Its free the underboob! So for the third time - Here is my latest blog post!! TW: Weight loss/Fatphobia ... "I know that this post is not the usual type of post I would make on Leaf & Lace, but I’ve unintentionally lost a significant amount of weight in less than a year and I feel the need to discuss this situation I keep finding myself in. Over the past month or so I’ve bumped into heaps of people I haven’t seen in months and their reactions have been the same - they’ve immediately pointed out how much weight I’ve lost." https://www.leafandlace.com.au//my-body-is-not-a-before-p/

14.01.2022 If you have ever thought about booking a Boudoir session with me and you talked yourself out of it by telling yourself 100 reasons why you shouldn’t do it, I am here to give you the reasons why you NEED to! https://www.leafandlace.com.au//why-should-i-do-a-boudoir/

13.01.2022 New Blog Alert - A Leaf & Lace story written by the beautiful Verity Stilley A boudoir shoot celebrates what it means to be a woman, in every sense of the word. It offers each individual woman the opportunity to see that she is indeed beautiful and not only is she beautiful, but she also possesses a beauty that is unique to her. It is no secret that the mere thought of a boudoir shoot terrifies many women, but it is something every woman should do at least once in their li...fetime. You cannot conquer what you refuse to confront. It comes down to a choice. It is only through honesty and vulnerability that we can not only learn to accept our flaws and grow to be comfortable with the knowledge that they are what makes us real, but we can also begin to identify our strengths and allow ourselves to cherish them.

07.01.2022 We put so much pressure on ourselves to fit into the beauty standards that we and society set for our bodies. We spend hours scrutinising ourselves - weighing, measuring, comparing. Before you go to sleep tonight I want you reflect on all of the tiny victories you had today. It doesn’t have to be grand or worth bragging about. Keep it simple. I then want you to think about the phenomenal things your body does for you every day. Your body is an amazing creation and it’s perfo...rming miracles with every breath you take. Your body is healing and nourishing you. It’s supporting you and taking you through your life’s journey. It’s unique and strong. Next, I want you to take a depth breath and forgive yourself for any bad thoughts you had towards yourself today. The journey to self love can be hard. Its not a direct or perfect journey from A to B. What works for you might not work for someone else. There will be days where that little voice in your head tells you mean and nasty things. That’s okay. But just remember there will be days where you feel on top of the world and that’s what you need to focus on. Remember that feeling. Hold on to it. Embrace it. Eventually the amount of good days you have overtake your bad days and your bad days will be far and few between. And finally I want you to think of tomorrow. Because tomorrow you are one step closer to self love and you are exactly where you need to be in this moment. Be proud of yourself. You are doing wonderfully! Stay lovely x Shelby

06.01.2022 Last day of the year!! What a journey 2019 has been! I started this little project just over 12 months ago and it has been amazing to watch it grow into where it is now! To all the women who I have photographed - thank you. You have inspired me with every session. I want you all to know that I am so grateful that you chose me to share your stories with and trusted me with your bodies and your self love journey. I can not explain how many times I have finished a session, gotte...n home and had a strong emotional response to the things you have all shared with me during our time together. Your vulnerability & trust in me is what gives you all strength and will continue to inspire so many other women. To anyone who has expressed any kind of support whether is be sharing kinds words about my art or sharing my page - I want to say thank you as well! Your support means a lot to me! Finally to anyone who is learning to love themselves wholeheartedly still - you are such a valuable human and you deserve nothing more than to see yourself as that. I hope 2020 brings you positivity, kindness and pure love. I cannot wait to see where the future takes Leaf & Lace but I’m sure as hell excited!! Stay lovely, Shelby

04.01.2022 The last time I shared one of my images on Facebook, I got sent to facebook jail (F U Zuck!). So I’ve decided to share my photography sessions through a little blog I’ve created. Here’s a little sneak peek of Shalishah’s session & her self love journey. https://www.leafandlace.com.au/blog/shalishah/

01.01.2022 I’m starting to get completely booked out a few months in advance again (first time since covid started ). If you’ve been thinking about booking a session this is your sign!! Slide into my DMs & let’s make some magic!
