The Editors Guide to Christmas

With christmas fast approaching I’ve done my fair few share of xmas themed shoots, one of my favourites so far was the ‘The Ultimate gift guide’  for the Decembers issue of Australian Womens Weekly magazine. Magazine Editors like Kellie Hush from Harpers Bazaar & Anthea Loucas from Gourmet Traveller Magazine gave us their top tips for the best pressie ever!
