Looking over the beautiful rugged coast of Nusa Lembongan & over to the volcanos of Bali in the distance! A throwback to when we took the @instituteofcode team to stay at the stunning @mandalaplaces villa on the cliffs - we would have been going there again right about now, but with some of the team stuck overseas, it looks like we will be waiting a few more months so we can all be together again 😭 • • • • • • • • • #bravogreatphoto #awakethesoul #dronenature #dametraveler #openmyworld #peoplescreatives #moodygrams #theoutbound #folktravel #watchthisinstagood #nusapenida #globelletravels #thisisindonesia #traveltagged #verilymoment #mountagung #lonelyplanet #citizenfemme #abmtravelbug #theglobewanderer #planetdiscovery #flashesofdelight #lifewelltraveled #exploretocreate #goldenhour #bali #nusalembongan #earthofficial #djiglobal #optoutside

A photo representative of what my mind looks like inside after my 4th consecutive day working well after midnight! I don’t say this to gloat or glorify that kind of work/life balance - it’s defs not sustainable nor recommended, but the reality is that when you are working on a project that you love & that gets you excited every damn day, then that drive overtakes your need to watch tv or get drunk at the local pub. I believe they call this feeling ‘passion’. What’s your passion? • • • • • #bravogreatphoto #mytravel #travelgram #dametraveler #openmyworld #peoplescreatives #sunsetmission #theoutbound #folktravel #watchthisinstagood #sidewalkerdaily #globelletravels #dronegram #traveltagged #verilymoment #bali #lonelyplanet #citizenfemme #abmtravelbug #theglobewanderer #planetdiscovery #flashesofdelight #lifewelltraveled #canggu #goldenhour #dji #anythingispossible #artofvisuals

Not going to lie, I straight up live in paradise but it doesn’t mean I don’t dream of other places - one of those being Japan. Watching the insane ski season they are having at the moment is making me so damn jealous, not to mention the amazing food & scenery. Took this shot of @wildbonde on our very last run in Niseko & boy did we get a stunning goodbye 🙌🏽 • • • • • • • • • • #neverstopexploring #peoplescreative #stayandwander #theoutbound #globelletravels #awesomeearth #awakethesoul #awesupply #citizenfemme #canon_photos #beautifuldestinations #bestvacations #ourplanetdaily #niseko #travelstoke #dametraveler #artofvisuals #liveoutdoors #nisekojapan #exploretocreate #moodygrams #optoutside #eclectic_shotz #forgeyourownpath #adventureculture #nature #japanpow #ftwow #japan

Just out chasing waterfalls, playing with our new puppy Nala & creating an online bootcamp teaching photography & all things social media/business that will change people’s lives - not even sorry for tooting my own horn - when your proud of something, don’t hide it, SHOUT THAT SH*T FROM THE ROOFTOPS! @instituteofcode if you want more deets! I want to hear what you’re proud of this week, drop a comment below. Happy Wednesday from wet & wild Bali 🥳 • • • • • • • #bali #awakethesoul #travelgram #dametraveler #openmyworld #peoplescreatives #moodygrams #theoutbound #folktravel #watchthisinstagood #lensbible #globelletravels #thisisindonesia #traveltagged #verilymoment #wonderfulindonesia #lonelyplanet #citizenfemme #abmtravelbug #theglobewanderer #planetdiscovery #flashesofdelight #lifewelltraveled #exploretocreate #goldenhour #ubud #waterfalls #anythingispossible #artofvisuals #beautifuldestinations

I remember driving up to this location in the clouds and telling @emmamaidment_ that we might not get the epic view from this infinity pool because the clouds were so heavy but we pushed on & decided to just give it a good ol crack! Aaaand this is what we got! This is why I LOVE my job, why I love photography - pushing your creativity & trying to think outside the box can be challenging but so rewarding, we walked away from this shoot on the biggest high, not because these are award winning photos or a crazy once in a life-time volcano erupting, but because we created something that left us smiling from ear to ear & if your job can do that, then hell, sign me up! I never went to school to learn photography or business, in fact, I studied environmental science , ran a landscaping company for a few years, then moved to Bali & started @instituteofcode with @hellotinamay . Needing to create content for our retreats I picked up a camera and learnt the hard way, through trial & error, by combing through the internet trying to find little nuggets of info that would help answer my burning questions. It’s been a rollercoaster of a journey from landing my first photography client (where I naively offered over 100 edited images for just a few hundred dollars) to today, where my photography business has been bringing in consistent 10K months and empowering me to support a full team of staff here in Bali. Sure you can follow my footsteps (with the DIY route) & I will support you 100% of the way, but if you want to fast track that learning process, so that you can learn the skills you need to start working for brands & businesses in a few months rather than a few years, then you should seriously check out our Photography & Social Media Bootcamp. Over the space of 8 weeks, I’ll teach you literally everything I know about photography & the business of it so that you can hit the ground running and skip all the mistakes and roadblocks that I faced along the way. And if you’re keen to check it out, I just launch a set of scholarships to help you get started on your journey - Check out the link in my bio to enter!

I’m pretty damn lucky to call Bali home, although rainy season seems to have shown it’s face finally and it’s got me dreaming of these warm tropical waters in the Mentawais 🤤 On another note, life has been pretty damn hectic here, working away on a super exciting project, that’s been a year in the making (well more like 5 years if you want to get technical). Anyway I’m super pumped to share it with you because it could genuinely change your life, so stay tuned! Much love from Bali 🤙🏽 • • • • • • • #djimavicpro2 #exploreeverything #travelgram #bravogreatphoto #lifeofadventure #theadventureproject #peoplescreatives #theoutbound #folktravel #idexplorer #indotraveller #finditliveit #whatchthisinstagood #beautifuldestinations #mentawai #livefolkindonesia #livefolk #thisisindonesia #mytinyatlas #letsgosomewhere #wonderfulindonesia #instagood #dronenature #thewellcollective #verilymoment #dronephotography #traveltagged #travelphotography

Still by far one of my favorite photos to date. Sure it’s not some crazy mountain or next level villa perched on a cliff overlooking dolphins and unicorns with a perfectly shaped moon and cotton candy sky’s - it’s just a raw, unplanned moment captured in time and sometimes those are the ones that matter most! ⠀ ⠀ Hope you all had an amazing weekend! Make sure you tune in tomorrow night for something exciting - it has to do with websites and free stuff so it’s probs worth it 😉

This year I turned 30 & I was so excited to head to the US and explore & shoot some of the places I’ve dreamt of for years, party with my best friend ( @samisfierce ) and make my 30th something to remember BUT then the world turned upside down & that idea went belly up. And you know what, that’s ok, life is unpredictable and all we can do is go with the flow. It meant I got to make new friends here in Bali & strengthen existing. ⠀ ⠀ It might sound a bit “woo-woo” but all we can do is have trust, trust that everything will work out ok & that even in these uncertain times, everything happens for a reason - if you find yourself down, look for those positives, no matter how small & seemingly insignificant, it might be the little push you need to keep your head high. ⠀ ⠀ I took this shot a couple of years ago in Joshua Tree national park & I cannot wait to get back & make new memories here :) • • • • • • • • #bravogreatphoto #earthpix #travelgram #dametraveler #openmyworld #peoplescreatives #theweekoninstagram #theoutbound #folktravel #watchthisinstagood #sidewalkerdaily #globelletravels #uniladadventure #traveltagged #verilymoment #lensbible #lonelyplanet #citizenfemme #abmtravelbug #theglobewanderer #planetdiscovery #flashesofdelight #lifewelltraveled #joshuatreenationalpark #goldenhour #bestdiscovery #joshuatree #anythingispossible #artofvisuals #lost_world_treasures

I love going back through photos from past trips and looking at it in a totally new way, which often leads to a radically different edit from the first time around. ⠀ ⠀ I think it’s a great example of how editing really is a form of art (it captures your emotion at the time - maybe that’s moody or bright and airy), which is part of the reason I’ve never released presets - while they do have added convenience, I feel like the endless stream of presets coming out has stoped some current/future photographers from spending that time really enjoying the art of editing & making it their own. • • • • • #bravogreatphoto #mytravel #travelgram #dametraveler #openmyworld #peoplescreatives #sunsetmission #theoutbound #folktravel #watchthisinstagood #sidewalkerdaily #globelletravels #dronegram #traveltagged #verilymoment #japan #lonelyplanet #citizenfemme #abmtravelbug #theglobewanderer #planetdiscovery #flashesofdelight #lifewelltraveled #kyoto #goldenhour #anythingispossible #artofvisuals

I heard on the grapevine this week that the Komodo islands are open to tourists again & I got so excited that I decided to have a look back in the archives. This was such a beautiful morning, we got up while the stars were still out and waited for the sun to rise & my god was it peaceful up there! ⠀ ⠀ Have you ever been to the Komodo Islands?
