A Superstar For The Day Experience with Bel

“I am lucky enough to have crossed paths with the absolute beautiful legend Melissa Mills in my personal journey to connect to Country.

From the first “quick” (nearly 2 hour) phone call we had, we both knew we had made a connection that will grow into a life long sisterhood.

Melissa is a Proud First Nations boss babe who has her successful portrait photography business and is a public speaker.

Over one of our lunch dates I had to ask Melissa if I can work with her. After a little scream of joy, she replied “yeah girl, of course”, where I had a little scream of excitement too.

Therefore, yesterday with Charnell (makeup & hair extraordinaire) and Ethan, we had such an amazing day with outfits, laughter, bottle feed breaks, coffee, high vibe screams followed by settling the boy back down (lol) opps!

I will admit, I loved the attention. I, me, this ordinary chick right here being spoilt by feeling like a superstar and I’m very excited for our next photoshoot project in September (because you know, why the fuck not!).”

To see and hear (Bel did a quick little video on her IG page) this reaction from a beautiful, spirited, warrior like Bel, is humbling to me. I never, ever, take my clients for granted and I want every one of them to feel like they are seen and that they are loved.

Bel’s strength, power and sensual beauty shone in the studio like a beacon and yes she is right……..we are and we will be sisters for life.

Thank you Bel, for bringing your light into mine and Charnell’s world.
