let me tell you a story

I'M SJONELLE, AND Im a little bit obsessed with LIGHT. EARLY MORNING SUN IS PURE HEAVEN TO ME. SO IS THAT BURNING, hazy AFTERNOON GLOW.
I especially love it when it falls in that perfect way, when it lights up a bride's face, or shows the outline of couple in love. I also love it when someone is so engrossed in working their craft, they forget I'm even there.
Working as a photojournalist, writer and newspaper designer for the first half of my career, photography has always played a starring role in my storytelling.
These days, you'll find me exploring the less chaotic sides of life, like marriage ceremonies, adventurous and intimate elopements, and showcasing the beauty of community members practicing their trades.
Having spent several years living interstate as a journalist, and later travelling to far off places like Morocco, Ireland and Namibia, I now spend my time living on my family's farm in the Northern Rivers hinterland, relishing in every beautiful thing home has to offer. Family, friendships, good health, my beautiful baby daughter and her big furry brother, Wolfie the dog.
