UPCOMING RELEASE SCHEDULE
There’s a lot coming!The two-part series with Georgia and Tahlia aren’t just a photo dump from one day — they’re two completely separate shoots, each with their own vibe, brief, and energy. I don’t plan to do multi-part issues too often, but I wanted to try something different and keep things evolving. I hope you enjoy the contrast between them.I thought it might be useful to give a quick update on where things are at with upcoming issues:I’m slowing down on producing new shoots unti...
Part 2 of the BTS video with Taylor Creeden!
Here is Part 2 of the first shoot I did for ONLINE with Taylor those many months ago. More coming very soon!
Finally... BTS Videos
Starting with the first shoot with Taylor Creeden! I've found a video editor, and they'll be working through all of these very shortly! This is Part 1 (I've scheduled part 2 for tomorrow).
Oh my lord, the issue with Jen Davidson is going to be absolute f**king fire.
I didn't really plan to tease these, I borrowed a light from a gaffer — A CreamSource Micro Bender (it's a very directional LED panel, manufactured here in Aus). I've been trying to line up Jen for a hot second, but things clicked today and here we are, with some of the best last light images I've ever taken. This is part of a larger set of four looks we did, but I can't pick my jaw up off the floor, and had to share a preview.
Which issue would you like to see next
I'm currently reviewing the next few! They've all been shot, but just making time for the selecting and editing.SiennaEireanneScarletKianiBonnie
Referencing!
It's a big part of my work, I have a tonne of books, magazines, blogs, and other Patreons I follow. I think it's important it helps to make sure my work stays interesting.That's not a process I do alone, models bring stuff to me, I talk to friends, but with Patreon, I do want to involve you in that process.So I thought today I would start giving insight into some of those places I draw inspiration from starting with a list of great photographers you should check out on IG:instagram.c...
Update on future shoots! Keep the suggestions coming
I wanted to share a bit about how I choose the models I work with for ONLINE, how those shoots come together, and what that means for the suggestions many of you have been sending through.Firstly—a high portion of agency models say no. Their bookers usually control what they can and can’t shoot, and a lot of them are cautious about independent projects like this. That said, ONLINE is slowly building a name for itself as something non-exploitative and collaborative. You might have noticed tha...
Flights booked!
God, this cost way too much money, but I'm so excited to get to do this for the first time. Tahlia and Georgia are two of my favourite models to work with. I just booked flights for Mid-October for a shoot trip up in Airlie beach!Some unreleased shots from when Georgia stayed with me a few years back —I'm going to see if she'd like to release a series to help pay for some of the trip, when I chat to her this week, but here's a peak of some of those!This is the most I've eve...

Sample shots from Issue 10
Will post a BTS video tomorrow too!
Issue 10 is live — and here early for you.
I’m still waiting on the green light to share this publicly, so for now it’s a Patreon-first release!Shot with Eadie Scott, this one came together so naturally — from the soft morning light to the intimate indoor scenes, it’s styled with a kind of gentle care that really carries through. I love how this issue turned out. Thoughtful, feminine, and quietly powerful.It’s 95 pages, a mix of film and digital, and it's my favourite to date.Thanks again for being here — your support gen...
Issue 9 is available now!
My latest issue with Maki Lesko — 100 pages. We kicked things off in her Jeep, sun out, strawberries packed, and wandered up through Long Reef before ending on the sand at dusk. Swimwear, singlets, soft light, and a whole lot of presence—Maki brought it.Shot on film and digital. Clean, confident, and just the right amount of bold.Available now.
ONLINE with MAKI LESKO
My digital magazine with Maki Lesko — 100 pages including cover and thank you notes, A4, digital download. Shot at Long Reef on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, this session was about reconnecting — with the coastline, the light, and each other. Maki had just returned home after a year living in Arizona, feeling that ache of missing California’s coast and the rhythm of beach life. We wanted to bring that mood to this shoot — simple, sunlit, and grounded in place. The afternoon delivered. S...
Maki Lesko got impatient...
So I've been a little busy. After my issue with Lara, I've had a lot of enquiries, and a lot of models who had said no have turned around and said yes.The biggest request has been Sienna Traino, whom I can confirm I shot on the weekend for ONLINE.So the next few issues were Bonnie Hefren, Eadie Scott, then Maki Lesko, Bella Courtas, and then Sienna Traino.Maki has been messaging me daily wanting to publish, so whilst I have two other issues ready, tonight I'll sit down with her, and ...
Issue No. 8 with Harmony Jewel Johnson
This issue came together fast—and with ease. Harmony and I met at Shelly Beach, started shooting at the point, wandered down past the pool at Fairy Bower, then jumped in the car and chased the last of the light to Clontarf. The sun dropped quickly, but we kept shooting into dusk, finishing with a moody little after-dark set.You might recognise Harmony from Love Island, but this was a totally different energy—casual, calm, and really fun to make. The weather was perfect, the water was warm, a...
PRODUCTION UPDATE! (Covers for 8, 9 + 10!)
Starting off for Issue 8 we have Harmony hopefully out on Sunday! Stay tuned — I'm meeting with her on Friday to go through the shot selects.Then for Issue 9, I'm working on the selects with Bonnie.Then for Issue 10 I have Eadie!I might bump the order around a little after I work with Maki on Thursday, but will keep everyone updated.I really appreciate the support. lost a dear family friend 2 weeks ago, and it was devastating, and I haven't found a new housemate in the fray from al...
Sample from Issue 7 with Lara Wileman
Definitely my favourite issue so far, it should be obvious, I love the water, I love the beach, I love a good sunset, and that was the best one I've seen so far this year, and Lara was just a dream to work with.Also I DO want to provide the BTS vids, just figuring out the best way.
Dropping now, ONLINE Issue 7
This is my favourite ONLINE issue so far.From the location to the light to the energy Lara brought—everything just clicked.We started simple: jeans and a singlet on white sand, the kind of look that always sets the tone right. Then we moved into a Fae Swim bikini as the sun pushed higher, shifting into a Gooseberry Seaside one-piece as the light softened and the shadows stretched. As the evening rolled in, Lara changed into a white dress to watch the last of the sun disappear across the water....
ONLINE with LARA WILEMAN
My digital magazine with Lara Wileman — 90 pages including cover and thank you notes, A4, digital download. Shot on a quiet winter’s day at Hyams Beach in Jervis Bay, this session took shape after a long drive south, chasing white sand and clear blue water. The light held just long enough, and as it dropped, Lara pushed through the cold and gave everything. We ended the day with a stunning mix of sunlit warmth, twilight softness, and striking, powerful moments after dark. This issue blends...
Issue Six with Jenny Annabelle Sample!
A sneak peek of Issue Six, which is out now!
ISSUE SIX OUT NOW.
I'm sorry I've taken so long, I have two issues now shot that I'm working on the edits for, with Lara and Harmony and will have those up hopefully this week.I've also booked two shoots in Newcastle this weekend with Bonnie and Eadie.As an apology and a thank you to all paid members I've reduced the price for this for a week just use the code DLAY20 at checkout!
ONLINE with Jenny Annabelle
My digital magazine with Jenny Annabelle — 79 pages including cover and thank you notes, A4, digital download. Shot at Voodoo Point, an iconic reef break between Kurnell and Cronulla, this shoot took place at sunset in April, just as the last light dipped across the rocks and gently illuminated the beach. It took a little time to finalise, but I’m proud to share this with you. This session was shaped by patience, trust, and simplicity, and you can feel that in the frames. These images are ...
Issues 7+8 are coming shortly!
Thank you so much for your patience while working on this project!I'll have more info this week, just got back from Jarvis Bay.I'm in the process of setting up a Vimeo account to then post the BTS videos here for anyone who subs!The photos above are from today with Lara.
Update on Upcoming Shoots for June/July
Hey everyone — just wanted to give a quick update.I know things have been a bit quiet lately, and I want to be transparent about where things are at. The last few months have been full of shoot cancellations, reschedules, and some difficult conversations. One shoot in particular won’t be released — the model ultimately felt it was too explicit and was concerned about how it might affect future work. I completely respect her decision. It’s something I take seriously, and I always want the...
Suggestions
I am going to share this publicly for your viewing!Ideas for posts, places, shoots you'd like to see: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UHXB5dEtdXqmJbmND1lnRyeYCdo8CsyB1s0Ew-W92nk/edit?usp=sharing
Update: Will be sharing more BTS very soon!
Just trying to find the right way to share it! Patreon isn’t the easiest to share videos on unless you do them individually and I’d like to upload like seven or eight of the current ones I have created! But just trying to figure out the best way to pass that through!We’ll have issue six in the next few days finalised as well!
Issue Five is out now!
Thank you for your patience and encouragement! Communication with Tash was slow, but as we finalised these, partly because I was sick, partly because of the time difference.I'm excited to have this one out! I think the images are beautiful, and it was a wonderful shoot and I think the trust and understanding I have with Tash really shows through!
ONLINE with Tash Knox
My digital magazine with Tash Knox — 81 pages including cover and thank you notes, A4, digital download. Shot in Sydney's Middle Harbour on both 35mm film and digital , this shoot took place just before Tash moved overseas — and I’m so glad we made the time for it. This isn’t the first time we’ve worked together, and you can feel that trust in the frames. It’s one of my favourite collaborations to date. The light was fleeting, the water calm, and the energy of the day gave us r...
