Tell us a bit about the image on our cover…<br />

It started with the tennis shoot, it was meant to be two<br />

models, but friends got involved and it grew from there.<br />

The scenes were meant to be slightly Slim Aarons inspired<br />

but with a comical twist, they have become more slapstick<br />

and less about the furniture over the years.<br />

It’s huge fun to source costumes and dress up and it<br />

means a lot to me as it’s always my friends featuring in<br />

the photos and if we can get the owners of the scene we<br />

are photographing in we will (we haven’t yet failed at this,<br />

Erica is a staff member of Bowls Canterbury and was brave<br />

enough to say yes). You can see the full range of photos on<br />

our website gallery ‘Any Year Anywhere’ page.<br />

I love the behind-the-scenes/personal vibe of your social<br />

media, how has creating that kind of environment served<br />

you, do you think? (Also, any chance you could share that<br />

carrot cake recipe, even though it didn’t quite work out?!)<br />

I do all the social media myself, I think the behind-thescenes/personal<br />

vibe is really just my unpolished lack of<br />

expertise in this area. Having my friend Sarah Rowlands<br />

who does the majority of photography for Ico Traders<br />

saves me!
