My biggest family group from 2024.

Every time i head out to capture special moments for people, I’m always sickly nervous because it’s so important that i capture the essence in people’s connections with each other and nature. Once i leave a photo session, my creative cup is overflowing and heart full of gratitude for my clients who allow me into their personal world with a lens.

I feel it to be such privilege to be ask to capture sentimental moments that last a lifetime, to see people unfold comfortably into being themselves and vulnerable in their expressions while having me with a camera in front of them.

With that all being said, 2025 will be a year that I don’t take photos for others but instead for my own creativity and i won’t be taking on any photo jobs until I feel the desire to do so. This has been an incredibly difficult decision but i feel that i need to jump back into my rough edges, to push what i already know and allow my creative expression to evolve. It scares me to say no to photography work but it scares me more to loose what i deeply adore because im burnt out.

Im looking forward to sharing more of how i see the world and to be back capturing special moments for people, but for now its time to go home to myself. I’m beyond grateful for all who support and encourage me to be creative, thank you so dam much!!!

Alot of love, justine

mothers day, everyday day, everywhere. There’s only one way to arrive here on earth and that’s through the womb of a woman, just a little reminder in case it’s gone unnoticed.

Also, the mother of all creation, Mother Earth. Celebrate and respect her daily, If it were not for her and all she provides there would be nothing, end of story, the story wouldn’t have even begun without her.

Too all women that birth all kinds of life, thank you for what you bring forth into the world everyday.

Tasmania march 2024.

A special coroner of the world where the contrasts are ever present, around each and every bend in the road or twist in the track there is something remarkable. You simply have to continue to adjust your eyes, constantly trying to take it all in.

This little island at the end of the world has most certainly left an impression on me.

I’m often lost in thoughts about this earth we are coexisting on…

find myself amused by all that matters but actually doesn’t, when you come to think that we are all here now on this giant rock in space that provides all we need.

What are we seeking that doesn’t already exist…

What do we need that isn’t already provided…

As humans we are at the mercy of nature, we are all that is nature.

There is inherent beauty amongst humanity and nature, there is also great power and destruction.

Just as the elements have the ability to be clam and melodic, they also have the ability to become a wild force that shows no mercy.

None the less there still is harmony and balance within the extremes of these elements.

The desire to understand natures extremes has taught me a lot about my own human nature, that there is harmony beyond the perceived chaos.

I have been told in the past that my images are too dark, too moody and not light and bubbly enough.

I find that to be quite complementary as that’s exactly how I see many moments. For me It’s more about seeing the glimpses of light that gives life to a subject. Because essentially i am wanting to capture life.

If it were not for the darkness there would be nothing for the light to be seen in.

For me It is the most alluring and captivating experience when I see light penetrating through the shadows, that is where I point my lens with great pleasure for all the moody goodness that I love.

One could also suggest that such a desire to capture darker and moody images says something about the artist, I would completely agree.

If it wasn’t for my ability to seek out the light in the gloom, I would not have made it through many moments in this life of mine so far.

Going through old hard drives.

I seem to have forget how deeply images hold emotions, how they are a recorded timeline of micro moments in a life that hold so much value with time.

It’s not always easy to revisit past images, however i am glad they are there and thankful for the reminder of the many creative moments though the years.

I have found lately that im not often behind the lens, although my eyes are forever captivated by many images taken simply through my visual viewpoint.

I tend to drift in and out of photography due to other life commitments, to an extent anyway. However long it is in between having camera in hand, there is always a sense of “this is what im here to do” about capturing what i see in this world.

Mutawintji, this land caught me by surprise. I spent hours and days here walking around, sitting and listening. Feeling amazed by the size of things, an ancient landscape that had me in complete surrender. Yet i was saddened to see the amount of feral goats destroying sacred sites. You may be able to spot one in my images, a solo billy goat in a habitat that suits him but doesn't warrant him there.

My love for light and earthly colors had me lost in time, time stopped as i was pulling closer and closer into the details. Mutawintji is a place that will stay with me beyond the photos I have captured.

I met something within myself there and l'II always be inspired from my time amongst this ancient place.
