Meet my muses. 
When I design my jewellery I think of what I would like to wear, mostly badass bikie inspired pieces that I could have stolen from a boyfriends bedside table. Then the pretty pieces, my mind wanders off to a Midsummer field where all I want is delicate gold and silver rings lightly stacked on both hands and my hair in braids. In reality I never make it to that field- instead the hair stays messy and the fine rings get stacked on with the bikie  rings and I head to the pub for a cider or the beach for a swim.

When I did this shoot however, I felt I gained two muses.

Jojo is a dream. Not only does he have the most incredible collection of tattoos and the ability to look like he is super rough and tumble but he is also has a beautiful soul.
The fact that he was scottish meant that he didn't have that 'holier than thou' thing that Australian guys seem to have. He was ready to do anything we asked, from getting lathered in moisturiser to standing shirtless in freezing temperatures, nothing was a bother.  
Every piece of jewellery I put on Jo just looked like it was made for him. When I am thinking of mens pieces to make now, I think of them on Jo.

Ami. Whoa. In photos she comes across with a stare that could break glass. Behind the scenes she would burst into a fit of laughter at any moment. She had the Blondie vibe to pull off the tougher pieces and then switched on the angel charm for the more romantic shots. She is a tornado that is gaining strength.

Backstage pass x

I have spent the last week pouring over the final images from the shoot I did in Byron Bay with a super talented group of creatives.
Before I release the final images I wanted to show you series of behind the scenes shots I snapped on my camera phone in all the craziness. The above photos are from the last day of shooting, Jo - our scottish male lead- had shown me a great picture of Lana Del Ray with a semi naked tattooed guy and a flag backdrop that I fell in love with. 
Phoebe, the amazing make-up artist and myself were taking our turns getting snapped in front of the camera but could not seem to keep our 'sexy faces', instead we spent most of the days in giggle fits.
Gorgeous Jo and Ami working the denim!
I'm sure as the Hair and Make up artist on set Phoebe was simply doing her job! Nice work if you can get it.
Jo toughing out the elements! It was around 10 degrees and I kept asking him to take his shirt off, what a legend!
Although he did get me back by motor-boating me!

Luckily Jo had friends in high ( and creative) places that just happened to have a vintage flag for us to use, so we strung it up and our leading man and lady gave us their best smoldering eyes and it was a wrap!

Stay tuned for more behind the scenes and the final shots!
