Jewels and hats photographed in Melbourne

Once again Adrian Dickens of Circa AD Jewels commissioned me to travel to Melbourne to photograph final images for his 2026 catalogue.

We were fortunate to have Carmen model for us again. Her grace and beauty works so well with the unique pieces from Circa AD and the striking hats from Louis McDonald, the well-known Melbourne milliner. Once again it was a great team and a joy to work with these amazing human beings.

Circa AD jewellery shoot – a day in Melbourne

I flew to Melbourne for a special shoot with Adrian Dickens, the creative force behind Circa AD Jewels, a boutique jeweller renowned for his exquisite craftsmanship and timeless designs.

Our original plan was to shoot in the lush surrounds of Fitzroy Gardens, but in true Melbourne fashion, the weather had other ideas. With rain clouds looming, we made a quick pivot and set up at a nearby apartment building — a location that turned out to be the perfect backdrop for Adrian’s stunning pieces.

The session was part of the upcoming Circa AD catalogue, showcasing Adrian’s latest collection. The ever-elegant Carmen modelled the jewellery beautifully, bringing poise and warmth to every frame, while Perri Cutten provided the smart, sophisticated fashion that perfectly complemented Adrian’s designs.

With such a talented team, excellent results were assured. The day unfolded with great energy and collaboration, and I’ve included a few out-takes and snippets below to give a sense of the atmosphere on set.

Once the final selections for the catalogue are made, I’ll be sharing another post featuring some of the finished shots — so stay tuned!

I flew down to Victoria to shoot Adrian Dickens’ fabulous jewellery for Circa AD, worn by the model Sharon, stylishly dressed in Perri Cutten outfits.  On location in the inner Melbourne suburb of Windsor, we produced imagery with a warm intimacy and fashionable flair. More photographs from this shoot to follow in a later post.
