For ten days in November, Jo and Di joined me for an unhurried adventure shaped by laughter, shared humour and time spent out in nature with cameras in hand. With ever-changing weather, unexpected wildlife encounters and plenty of moments that unfolded naturally, our days together were less about chasing scenes and more about enjoying the experience as it revealed itself.

Delighted to have two images awarded silver and three highly commended at the 2025 Australian Photographic Prize

A look back on a meaningful few days spent exploring, learning and photographing on Maria Island. Cosy comforts, winter light, wildlife encounters and creative connection made this women’s photography escape one to remember.
