I am an art director in the magazine publishing industry, residing in Melbourne, Australia.

Dangerously close to 30 years of age, I haven't clung to the appearance of youth, but embraced the 'nanna-arts'.

When not whipping up a layout in InDesign or attending a photo shoot at work, I love nothing more than cosy-ing up at home with my lovely husband and gorgeous puppies.

There has been no certain medical explanation for it, I think it's just her version of perfect! I can't imagine her any other way — and Lucy doesn't seem favour one hand over the other.

Here's a bunch of photos I took of her a couple weeks ago…
