This shoot is inspired by photographer Bert Stern's iconic images of Twiggy in the 1960s. Sahana already embodies the essence of Twiggy with her big bright eyes, blonde hair and innocent age. This was intentionally a practice shoot in my bedroom with natural light from the window, and the heavy eyeliner and mascara that is so synonymous with Twiggy's look 

Setting sail on this journey to photography feels like a heartwarming reunion with an old friend – my Canon camera, a cherished gift from my filmmaking father over a decade ago. Life's whirlwind of raising my delicious daughters, Sahana and Dylana, had me trading lenses for lullabies. But now, as I step into my “study era”, a newfound passion for product photography ignites my creativity. Through the lens, I'm not only capturing textures and details; I'm encapsulating memories and stories, a skill I feel was more passed down to me than learned. The classroom has become a haven of inspiration, where peers and I, amplify each other's artistic strengths. Amidst the camaraderie, my styling flair has found its home, intertwining with the talents of those around me. And the teachers – luminaries of expertise and encouragement – sprinkle each lesson with a dash of optimism, turning each click of the shutter into a whisper of possibility.

  Cooking live on TV with Satvik Foods on TVSN was another thrilling experience, filled with flavourful "here's something I prepared earlier" dishes, nerves, and lots of fun! My sister joined me for the first time for an intro, and we shared our passion for Ayurvedic-inspired cooking with Peter Mason and our live audience. Thank you to everyone who tuned in and supported us on this exciting culinary journey!

RADA CAMPBELL - MOTHER & ENTREPRENEUR,  SATVIK FOODS.  TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT YOURSELF- WHO YOU ARE, AND WHERE ARE YOU FROM? I am a mother, creative and entrepreneur. I was born into the Hare Krishna religion in Northern NSW and spent most of my childhood running wild with my 8 siblings. Growing up, I was deeply influenced by stories and traditions of the varied spiritual doctrines my eccentric mother subscribed to. This left me with a rich curiosity, and audaciousness to seek out the world for myself. I spent many years overseas and returned to my roots to raise my own daughters in the little rainforest village of Uki. WHAT SETS YOUR SOUL ON FIRE AND BRINGS SUNSHINE INTO YOUR LIFE?   Connecting deeply with people, dancing like nobody's watching, swimming in the ocean during a storm, and creating with my hands - whether I’m sewing, drawing, cooking or writing. CREATING IS A BIG PART OF YOUR LIFE, WHEN DID THIS PASSION BEGIN?  Satvik Foods   was created by my wonderful sister, K

  I want to share with you my gratitude and joy for the past five years of working alongside my sister, Kat and her husband Moi, at Satvik Foods. As a family-owned business, Satvik Foods has been a creative outlet for me within this mature company of 13 years. I've had the opportunity to be a part of something special, and to reconnect with my roots and heritage through the rituals of preparing and eating food. I have worked plenty with my family, but each is a unique experience. We've had our fair share of disagreements, but we always come together with a shared vision of creating nourishing, Ayurvedic-inspired dishes that are accessible to everyone. I've learned so much from them, not just about food but about business, marketing, and communication. The learning curve has been steep, but it's been worth it. I've learned the importance of patience and perseverance, and how to adapt to changing market trends and consumer preferences. Most importantly, I've red

  We celebrated the year that was in true Nine Lives Bazaar style over the weekend by gathering at HQ for a house party, sipping salty margaritas by Azteca Margarita, enjoying epic Aussie Lager's by Earth Beer Company, and savouring delicious Seltzers & Rose's from Jackson West. The party theme was in full swing, as we played Beer Pong in our best dressed NLB, played Goon of Fortune, and witnessed a magical sunset. A surprise Silent Disco meant we could dance the night away. This unforgettable night is one for the history books, and we're grateful to be apart of this wonderful community
