Journal

I work casually, but I’m aiming towards working full time creatively. I’m a photographer and mixed media artist focusing on fashion illustration, and textile art. A typical day would be wake up early, coffee and gym/workout if I have time! I like to make sure I get out of the house for at least half an hour before I start my day. And then I might get into replying to emails, do some drawing whilst listening to music, clean the house, make food and end the day with a nice dinner or drink at a bar with friends!

I’m a writer and artist to most, and singer/songwriter to those closest to me. My day is a lot of running around, and staggering meetings with snacking.

I’m a freelance photographer and director. As well as the founder and director of Culture Machine, a Sydney-based production company, talent agency and photography studio in Marrickville.

I run my own fashion brand, Stone, which is an online based women's wear brand.  Everyday looks different, it can involve a day of designing, reaching out to stylists, photo shoots, packing orders, running social media ads or receiving new samples from my pattern makers (which is my favourite part).

I am content creator and creative director primarily through freelance, for brands. A typical day for me looks like micromanaging the first half with emails and project proposals and then incorporating the rest of my day to be visually productive (creating content, documenting) and taking care of myself...

I play drums and sing in San Cisco and I sometimes DJ under the name Beryl Streep. I don’t have a typical work schedule however the band keeps me mostly busy. There’s usually quite intense periods of touring, recording, rehearsing, followed by periods of downtime where it’s really quiet and I have a lot of free time to spend at home.

I am currently a full time uni student doing a Bachelor of Nursing! Most days include some type of uni work along with lots of coffee, a long walk, content creating, cooking and/or baking and spending time with my partner.

I am a still-life photographer and artist. My typical day is quite varied, which is one of the fun things about my work. When I’m not on set shooting or having creative meetings, I’m working on personal projects in my studio, sourcing or making objects, conceptualising future shoots, watching hours of tv shows while editing, and going to sculpture classes. I need a lot of stimuli to get my brain ticking over, and to stay inspired, so in my down time I visit galleries, watch a lot of films, and dabble in Virtual Reality. What I should be doing, however, is my tax, and regular exercise.

In conversation with Model & Bee Keeper Georgah Crane | What is the first thing you do when you wake up? I make a coffee and then get back into bed to wake up slowly whilst catching up on everything.

I'm the Editor of Remix Magazine, so a typical day at work might involve interviewing someone for a feature, directing a fashion shoot, or just trying to catch up on the trillions of emails.

I’m a freelance photographer. My partner and I have spent the last year building our business called Sapphire Studios which is focused on wedding photography & videography. We also shoot a bunch of content for businesses and campaign work. I would say most days are quite different, but they always start with a strong coffee and some good music...
