The photo experience.

Velvet Thyme is a collaborative space where we take our time and talk things through. It’s about exploring the parts of yourself that aren’t always seen. No cookie-cutter poses. No smoothing away what makes you you. Just real, thoughtful imagery full of self-expression.

Hello!

I’m Gianna, and photography has been a lifelong love of mine. Over the years I’ve worked across many fields – from commercial to family and weddings – but the most powerful moments have always come from helping people recognise their uniqueness and worth.

I began with more traditional boudoir photography, but it didn’t feel right. After lots of research, creative collaborations and heartfelt conversations, I reshaped what I wanted to offer.

Now, the work I do blends elements of alternative boudoir, artistic nude, portraiture, pregnancy photography, and more. It’s an empowering, creative experience designed to explore different parts of yourself.

This is a safe space to express and reflect. A chance to celebrate your body, your style, your strength, intelligence, humour, quirkiness – your self – and to create meaningful, unique photographic artwork.

It’s a space to find beauty in the parts of ourselves we’re often told to feel uncomfortable with. Most importantly, this is a collaboration where you decide what approach feels right for you.
