Hi, Sharnelle here. I'm a lover of sunflowers. Just one of the reasons I love them other than their pretty looks is because they help remove toxins from soil, cleaning it to help other things grow in a healthier environment. If you're a deep thinker like me you might relate that to what we can do for ourselves. How can we be the sunflower in our own life?
I'll go deep really fast for you in saying, honestly, I feel I'd lived most of my life living inside a box just wanting it get it all right, make people proud and be "successful" (now my personal idea of success is very different). Years ago I woke up one day and decided I didn't want to keep living life feeling this way - feeling not good enough, full of imposter syndrome and lacked belonging. I really had no idea who I was so I took a big scary leap and I hired a self-love coach and that's where everything changed. It's really how I got here, doing what I do now. Understanding myself changed my whole world. I became a better wife (to my husband Matt) a better Mother to my two darling boys (Ollie and Arlo), my business went from strength to strength and I stopped allowing fear to control how I lived my life.
In 2022 we sold our "dream home", put everything in storage, left my very successful photography business and went travelling for 9 months - experiencing a whole new life in a number of countries and cultures. Learning a lot!
I have now been a photographer for 16 years capturing many genres as it has been the most amazing career that's followed me and my life (weddings, families, branding, self-love portraits). And now I'm blessed to help other photographers grow while making the camera and editing life more of a hobby.
I now also feel deep purpose in helping people by sharing the modalities that have helped me discover more about me and a live life I enjoy through love and transformation. Along with my intuitive gifts I struggle to know how to explain I am a Reiki Master, SOSHA Breathwork facilitator, Coach, Therapeutic Sound Healer.
I have a very relaxed nature which helps people feel at ease with me. I feel most content in open spaces be it the beach, out on the farm or climbing mountains. This feels very condensed but honestly I really just want to use this space to say thank you for taking an interest in me and my work! I’d love to hear from you.
