Lauren Southwell
Photographer, Entrepreneur
First and foremost, I am a mum, a sister, a daughter & a wife. My family is my everything & as cliche as it sounds, I wouldn't be where I am now without them.
I have been a professional Photographer for 8 years, covering many genres- from weddings & events, to newborns & families. I'm in an exciting part of my career where I am able to offer exactly what I love most & that's making women like you feel amazing through the art of Boudoir Photography.
Beauty, boudoir and personal branding photography has been something that has interested me for some time now & I am so very thrilled to be able to offer this unique, empowering experience to women in Mildura (and maybe via road trips to Adelaide and Melbourne).
I would love to meet & learn all about you during an introductory consultation, it's one of my favourite parts of my process.
During your session, I will probably squeal, swear and forget simple words like "toes" but that just means I am 100% 'in the zone' & you are nailing it.
By the end of your Portrait Experience, when you are collecting your beautiful products, I will be your confidante, advocate and friend.
Can't wait to shoot ya ;)

Virginia (Vee) Finocchiaro
Hey there!
I’m Virginia (AKA Vee)! I am a self taught Makeup Artist at Black Widow MUA.
I have been doing makeup for around 4 years now, but have been taking on clients for around the last 2 years. I love art and Halloween and these are two of the biggest reasons I got into makeup. I didn’t wear it as a kid, nor a teen (other than the odd occasion of black eyeliner). My best friend at school taught me winged eyeliner, and I fell in love. I have learnt a lot from observing which has helped me get where I am.
Being part of the Pure Beauty Photography Ambassador team has helped me become a lot more confident within myself, therefore making me a more positive person.
I have always believed everyone of any shape, size, colour and age are beautiful. I love making other people feel good and being part of the pure beauty team is another chance to make this mission possible! I can now encourage the pure beauty community to see beauty within themselves and can talk about my journey of self love and talk about my fears and “flaws” because we are all human but sometimes we just have a bit further to go.
But remember you are beautiful, never forget it. #wearepurebeauty

Indeah Memery
Hiya I’m Indeah Memery or Indy as most know me and I run facebeatbyindy where I do sfx, drag, glam and natural makeup just to name a few.
I studied my Diploma in Beauty Services, and absolutely fell in love with makeup, the transformation, the art and making people feel confident and beautiful within themselves. I knew this was what I wanted to do from then on.
I began taking clients at the age of 15 years old, and started on my little business journey along with some super cool photoshoot opportunities, with other creative folks and, here we are now at 21 and I’m still in love with seeing faces light up when they see themselves all glammed up and the art of photography.
When the Pure Beauty job opportunity came up it was like an absolute dream and I knew I had to jump in, and I can honestly say this is an absolute dream job to have.
I love the reactions and the confidence that people gain from small things like a little glam and self care.
I hope I can help others realise how much of a god dang babe they truly are, and give you some laughs along the way.

Leanne Pearce
Hey Pure Beauties! My name is Leanne & I am a makeup artist & owner of Makeup by Leanne Pearce.
My passion for makeup started from watching YouTube videos. I then went on to study makeup & have now held my Certificate for four years. I have experience in Special Occasions, wedding, SPX, glamour and photoshoots.
I love making women feel good about themselves with or without makeup- we are all beautiful, inside and out. I am a sucker for colourful looks, especially the eyes, where I just love creating different shades and colours on the lids, as you will notice on my makeup page.
I moved from Melbourne to Mildura 9 years ago. It was the best thing that I did & haven't looked back since. I worked at Sanity for 3 years up until they closed early this year.
I applied for the makeup artist job with Lauren and was so nervous to begin with, but Lauren has such a positive vibe that rubs onto you, it makes you feel amazing. This is the best experience in my makeup career.
I look forward to helping Lauren give you ladies the ULTIMATE experience!

Brodee Kernaghan
Hello Beauties.
My name is Brodee Kernaghan.
I am a mother, wife, sister, daughter and business owner. My family are my whole world and my support network. No matter what crazy ideas I may have, they support me the whole way, and that's what I would like to do for you.
When I am part of a photoshoot. I am in my absolute element. The energy in the room is amazing. So when Lauren asked me to be part of her team, it was a no brainer.
To be able to work with different people, with all different features, personalities and backgrounds is something I love doing. I love getting to know and empowering them by a conversation, support from the side lines or with a splash of colour. Seeing them light up when they see their reflection is the best part of my job.
Be careful. If you hang around me, I will make you believe in yourself, I will make you love yourself for who you are and support you in your journey. I will make you believe you can do the impossible without self doubt or hesitation. I will make you believe you are beautiful and you are good enough.
