Behind the scenes: WHO magazine shoot

28th March, 2020

It’s always a thrill to be asked to do a fashion shoot and I was really excited to work with WHO magazine several weeks ago on a story featuring new season sequinned pieces.

The shoot was shot on location at Reign in Sydney’s QVB, a champagne bar with beautiful art deco touches (I fell hard for the musk pink chairs) and a light and airy feel.

One of the great things about doing a shoot is being able to try on and wear a great line-up of beautiful clothes. Also I enjoy being introduced to new brands and getting a preview of upcoming pieces from different labels. With the theme being ‘the sequinned approach’ everything had a glitzy and glamorous feel. There was a particularly fab black and emerald green mini dress which is just so perfect for an event, while there were some softer dresses which had just a light dusting of sequins to add a little sparkle.

Working with different hair and makeup artists has been one of the major ways I’ve picked up tips on how to style my hair or perfect a particular makeup technique over the years. Now that I’ve got short hair I’m always looking for ideas on how to style it, and the deep side part with tousled waves that I wore at the shoot is one look I’m going to bookmark.

Thanks to WHO magazine for the opportunity. I had a ball!

Who Most Beautiful People 2015

26th March, 2015

I’m thrilled to be able to share with everyone that Sophia and I are in Who’s Most Beautiful People issue!

I get quite a few requests to do photo shoots with Sophia, but I’m always careful with which shoots I do as I think it’s important to keep some level of privacy when it comes to my daughter. When Who told me that we’d been included in their Most Beautiful People list I knew I had to say yes and I was definitely excited to take part. They always do such beautiful photos, and I was honoured to be included on the list with Sophia. It’s a mother/daughter picture that I’ll get to keep forever as a memento, in fact, I’m planning to get it framed!

At 10 months, Sophia’s quite active and lively now – she loves crawling around and moving about and she loved being on set. The shoot took place at a gorgeous house in Sydney’s Rose Bay and Sophia was enthralled by everything from the cameras to the crew. The shoot actually took place right during her nap time, but she managed to take a little nap in the car on the way there so she was really great during the shoot!

This is now the second shoot that Sophia and I have done together (the first being this Vogue shoot) and it’s such a lovely experience to be able to have her there with me.

If you’d like to check out the rest of the issue, it’s out on newsstands now. And below are some behind the scenes pics from the shoot. Thanks for having us Who!
