We came back from the farm with a surplus of zucchini, so I thought it was the perfect excuse to bake a cake! I modified a carrot cake recipe and it was so yummy. Moist and delicious. Here’s the recipe if you’d like to try it. It was really easy to make. Super Delicious Carrot…
Kip & Co x Ken Done Launch Party
Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I forgot to share photos of this epic Kip and Co party I was invited to last year for the launch of their collaboration with the inimitable Ken Done. As an 80’s child, Ken Done’s colourful fabrics and paintings left a lasting impression on me, and it was an…
Nomad Chocolate x Nina C Sees Easter Shoot
Working with Aussie small businesses is always a pleasure, but when they make delicious products, it’s extra special! There’s nothing quite like being able to eat and drink the shoot props. Perks of my job I guess. The kids weren’t complaining either when I came home with a bunch of chocolate eggs. Here is a…
Dîner en Blanc 2023
After a three year hiatus this incredible event was on again this weekend and I was lucky enough to be invited by one of my besties. It is the most bizarre but exciting night. You don’t know where the dinner will be hosted until you get there. You take your own table, chairs and linen….
Starting the New Year in New South Wales!
An end of year break meant some lovely farm time over Christmas but we had an extra week off and I had trouble finding any reasonably priced coastal accommodation in Victoria. So instead we hit the road North to Sydney, stopping in Canberra for a couple of days on the way. We stayed at Crowne…
Cherry Picking Adventures…
The weather put on a show for us this morning as we set off on a cherry picking adventure. We packed our hats and snacks and hit the road early to try and beat the heat and crowds. We were allowed to eat as many cherries as we liked while we were picking and I…
A Cosy Little Ocean Escape…
We’ve started a new tradition of having a couple of days away before Christmas to unwind from the stress of those last weeks of the year. We take my mum along and have a mini Christmas celebration together as we don’t see her on the day. This year a cute little Airbnb cottage in Ocean…
Alessandra Cashmere x Nina C Sees
I’ve worked with Alessandra Cashmere a few times now and it is always such a pleasure dealing with this beautiful, local, Melbourne based brand. Always stunning quality, natural fibres and flattering shapes. They reached out to me to create some content for their new cherry gingham range and I happily obliged. They are now using…
Maddy and Tom 12.11.22
I usually say no to photographing weddings because there are too many stressful variables, but I was finally convinced to say yes for some old, very special friends. Storms and sunshine were predicted, neither of which are a photographer’s friend so I was feeling a little nervous. Turns out the weather gods were looking out…
A Long Weekend at Miss Morris, Mount Martha
I’ve had Rachel’s cute house ‘Miss Morris’ on my long weekend wishlist ever since I saw an article about it earlier this year. As luck would have it, it was free over the Melbourne Cup long weekend, so we headed to the beach for a little bit of fresh, salty air and fun. My favourite…

Recipe below if you want to try making some too! Spiced Pumpkin Chai Cupcakes Makes 12 cupcakes Ingredients 225g plain flour 2…
Daily Juice x Nina C Sees
It’s not every day that you get to work with an iconic Australian brand to create content for their various platforms. What an absolute honour to be approached by Daily Juice, now back in Aussie hands after a stint being overseas-owned. This was a really fun campaign to work on. Here is a sneak peek…
Kholo x Nina C Sees
Another amazing limited edition collection by gorgeous Karishma the clever lady behind Kholo clothing. I was lucky enough to create some content for this new range yet again and it is always such great fun.
Dorte x Nina C Sees
After an awful week of illness in our house I got a lovely surprise in the mail from Aussie small clothing business Dorte who I’ve worked with before. What a pick-me-up the print was… a collaboration between Dorte and artist Harriet McCoombe. So fun and quirky in beautiful colours. Once I was feeling better I…
Hardie Grant x Nina C Sees
I’ve been busy producing LOTS of images for Hardie Grant Children’s Publishing recently. They are all the most absolutely beautiful and heart-warming books, each one with an important meaning. My kids are loving the endless supply of magical books around the house!
Frankie Gusti x Nina C Sees Festive Season Shoot 2022
I never ‘got’ the candle thing until I started working with beautiful Aussie small business Frankie Gusti a couple of years ago. As soon as I opened that first box I was a candle convert. These candles are absolutely divine. The smells are out of this world with packaging to match. They are now an…
Hello Geelong…
It’s no secret we love Geelong. It’s such a brilliant regional city with the beautiful Corio Bay as a backdrop and lots of great little pockets to explore. The kids had an extra day off at the end of the school holidays so we made a long weekend of it and spent a couple of…
Singapore, I Love You!
I’m lucky enough to have friends in Singapore and I was determined to get over and visit after missing out on visiting them while they lived in Hong Kong thanks to a certain pandemic. I saw some cheap tickets to Singapore and jumped at the opportunity to get over there. Wow! What an incredible city….
Wolf & Mishka x Nina C Sees
The gorgeous Nat from local small, slow fashion label Wolf and Mishka asked me to style this amazing pair of unbleached, recycled fibre trousers for some content recently. I’ll admit I was worried as I never usually wear light coloured pants or tailored style trousers but I love everything Nat does so was happy to…
What Ceramic Dreams are Made of…
I recently completed a big shoot at home for Angus and Celeste, a local ceramics business who I adore and have had the pleasure of working with several times over the past few years. Their products always take my breath away… beautiful, organic forms, soft colour palettes with pops of colour in the form of…
