I've been fortunate to know Jacqui for years and have taken part in numerous classes she's offered. Let me tell you, her energy is truly amazing! I had the absolute pleasure of joining her for a photoshoot on the beautiful Gold Coast, capturing her transition into the online yoga world. Jacqui's goal was to create a digital presence, so she booked a website and mini shoot and it was a delightful blend of creativity and the thrill of stepping into the digital realm.

Meet Jacqui

I had this photoshoot with Jacqui down on the Gold Coast, and the whole vibe was about capturing her soft, feminine, and inner child side. We were going for those vibes of innocence, play, joy, and light. Jacqui really wanted the photos to show off her easy-going and playful side. Jacqui also did another shoot with her friend, focusing on the total opposite dark, shadow, wild, and intense. This dual approach allowed us to beautifully represent both sides of her personality, a concept brilliantly integrated into her website design.

The vision

Jacqui's mini shoot was in one of my favourite photo spots in a little forest in Currumbin, Gold Coast. I've done lots of shoots here now because I love this spot. You might remember the iconic "forest fairy" shoot I did here with beautiful Aimee.

The location

Jacqui's mini photoshoot at Currumbin Creek in the Gold Coast Forest radiated a spiritual, playful, and feminine vibe. The lush greenery provided a stunning backdrop for Jacqui in a white, knitted matching outfit and a flowy grey dress, adding a touch of calm and grace to the enchanting surroundings. This session beautifully captured Jacqui's boho-inspired, feminine, and childlike energy, blending seamlessly with the natural beauty of the forest. The resulting images portray Jacqui's diverse and enchanting facets in a captivating fusion of movement, asana, and meditation.

The vibe

I've wanted to do a shoot with Jacqui for years because she's beautiful and an amazing human. Her classes have had a huge impact on my life, and I'm so grateful to play a role in helping her reach more people with her gifts. The connection we shared during the shoot, fuelled by mutual admiration and a genuine friendship, made the entire experience even more special. It was a collaborative celebration of Jacqui's beauty, talent, and the positive influence she has had on both my life and the lives of others through her impactful classes.
