KILLEN FALLS

Wearing Zimmermann bikini

Sometimes it's nice to forget about the things that get us down in life and experience the true beauty of nature. This small series was shot by my boyfriend when we went for a swim at a place called Killen Falls while we were visiting Byron Bay. I researched a few waterfalls and this was one of the only ones that you could swim in. It was a bit of a treacherous walk off the beaten track but was so worth it once there, as you can tell from my frolicking pictures.

KALEIDOSCOPIC TRAVEL

Hey everyone. I'm in the final two weeks of my university degree. Last two weeks FOR GOOD, that is. Then I'll be free forever to be working on the blog and LAUNCHING the store. It's all pretty exciting.

As you can imagine, I'm so busy and haven't had the time to do shoots for other looks and things that will be available in the store, but I have been working on a little series of pictures.

The basic idea behind this work is based on something someone said to me or I read somewhere before going away to India back in July; that 'India is a kaleidoscope of colours'... So I've grabbed a whole heap of my holiday snaps (there about 2500 photos altogether) and taken that one sentence and literally abstracted my holiday photos into little works of kaleidoscopic art. A fun and interesting take on the idea of a holiday snap. I was doing it for fun really but the response has been really positive and some people are interested in buying some!

If you are interested in purchasing one or more please drop me an email at this address: thebeardedladyvintage@gmail.com.

So without further ado, here are a few. To see them all check out my Facebook profile here. I also have an art blog, which, if you're interested in having a perve at please click here. Enjoy!

Indian Inspiration

Recently, I went on a trip around Northern India for 3 weeks. It was an amazing site of sounds, colours, smells and people. Lots of people. Out of the 3000+ photos I took, I find this one to be one of the my favourites and one of the most inspiring. 

This picture was captured in the tiny religious town of Pushkar, an alcohol, meat and dairy/egg-free city. Many people go on pilgrimages to this city. This pilgrim was decked out in colourful scarves, beads, jewels even tinsel, and totally working it. AND isn't his beard awesome?!
