Weeks posts
The year I said yes to opportunities that used to feel like a far off dream. Sharing some of the highs, but there were plenty of lows to match. I’m thankful that I’m loving the path I’m on enough to keep wanting more. One thing I’m changing this year is how often I show up online. I want to share more of what I do and what goes into my weeks - let’s see if I can finally shake my overthinking and crippling perfectionism šŸ™ƒ I’m excited to keep building and ready to unlock level 2026! šŸš€ #2025reflection #videographer #photographer #creative #creativelife

We flew halfway across the world (from Melbourne to MĆ©rida) to chase a feeling. Not just the warmth, the food, or the chaos (though we happily embraced all of it). Before diving into the work, we made a stop in Mexico City, soaking in the energy, connecting with friends, and catching inspiration at @offf_mx Then it was on to MĆ©rida, where we came to capture the spirit behind @paradisofest_ , a creative playground where design, creativity and culture collide under the YucatĆ”n sun. It’s hard to capture all of this in words, so here’s a recap that beautifully encompasses it all. Featuring @casitacabana @surenohotel @thinkparadiso @orbehstudio @_byfiction

Encounters in LA✨ I was taking photos along Broadway Street when @icemontgomery stopped me to ask if I could take his portrait. His energy was so refreshing. I’d been wanting to photograph a few people who passed me that day, but I was too shy to introduce myself and ask. Thanks for stepping in front of my lens, @icemontgomery , appreciate you! - - #encounter #positivity #strangers #connect #creatives #creative #creativeportrait #portrait #streetphoto #streetphotography #streetculture #streetportrait #rissvisualstudio #dtla #la #downtown #kindness #sonya7iv #briefencounter #laphotographers #losangelesphotography

The last couple of months have tested me on a lot of levels. Late nights that turn into early mornings in front of a screen, managing expectations as a ā€˜yes girl’, trusting others to take on projects on behalf of Riss, and jumping on a plane every second week for shoots. Things are moving fast, and I feel like I’m treading water a lot of the time. But the chaos is balanced with some incredible moments. Moments that make me question how the hell I got here and where else this camera will take me. If you’re working towards something that feels big and messy, keep moving šŸ’« - - #momentum #photographer #photogirl #cameragirl #mexicosunset #meridasunset #sunset #dreamy #dreamjob #workperks #luckygirl #brisbanephotographer #rissvisualstudio #gratitude #grateful #entrepreneur #creativeentrepreneur

Just got back from MĆ©rida, MĆ©xico, and still buzzing. We teamed up with the brilliant minds at @paradisofest_ and @thinkparadiso for four days of pure creative flow: design sessions, fireside chats and content creation for their new site (lots of it!). Before we show you what’s next, here’s a moment to honour the creative minds behind it all. Stay tuned. The best is yet to come.

A few of my favourite images snapped for @_uncommonstudio_ during our time at @offfest in Barcelona earlier this year. Little did I know we’d be heading back to the conference again in the same year, but this time, in Mexico City. @offf_mx , we’re ready for you!

Some new additions to the arsenal šŸ’ø As a hybrid shooter, I’ve been shooting primarily on my Sony A7iv for both stills and video…until now! I decided to take some of the load off my A7iv by using the A7cii as a second body, and I wish I’d done it sooner. Working with two bodies has been especially helpful when I’m using multiple lenses for particular looks during a shoot. I’m much quicker/less reluctant when it comes to switching between focal lengths and settings. Freeing up this mental space when I’m in the field means I have more capacity for creative thinking - and that’s worth its weight in gold! The Sony 70-200mm was a must for me with the direction of client work lately, and its macro capabilities are a huge bonus that I’m yet to sink my teeth into. It took a long time for me to feel comfortable making big investments into the business, but sometimes you gotta spend some to make some! It’s grow-time, baby šŸš€ - Stocks were low on these beauties, but @teds_cameras pulled through and I was able to get my hands on two pieces I’ve had my eye on for months!

Today marks ā€˜day one’ of #tdc2025 and the second year that I get to shoot all the magic that happens over these three days. So much has changed since my first TDC experience back in 2021. If you had told me back then that I’d be working alongside the team, producing content for TDC’s digital channels, there’s no way I would have believed you. Posting some takeaways from the past few years to celebrate the conference kicking off, but these nuggets only scrape the surface. @the.design.conference provides an invaluable space to connect and grow as creatives and I feel insanely lucky to be a part of it each year. Who else is making their way over to @bris_powerhouse today?? LET’S GO šŸ™Œ - - #brisbanecreative #creativeconference #thedesignconference #brisbanepowerhouse #visitbrisbane
