OUR FOUNDER

HI LOVIE, I'M INDY 

But I wasn’t always the passionate, creative butterfly I am today. There was a time when I felt constantly out of place, a bit insecure, and painfully unaware of how much beauty there would be in my future. 

That all changed when I enrolled in photography study. Suddenly, my world opened up and I could feel my purpose taking shape. Behind the lens, I felt more happiness, confidence, and opportunity than I had ever experienced. And when I took a leap of faith and created Atelier Shai, I knew I had more than big dreams – I had a life-changing vision. 
You see, it’s always been about more than simply taking beautiful photos. It’s about using my expertise to empower other women on journeys of their own. It’s the opportunity to capture moments in time, savouring even the smallest details, and sharing them in a way that tells a story.
It’s the ability to travel to places that inspire me and bottle up the beauty around me into imagery that makes you feel something. 

As creative entrepreneurs, we get the chance to express our multi-passionate hearts through a business that leaves our own cup overflowing with joy, but also lifts others up in the process. And that is why I do what I do. 

So tell me, what do you spend your days dreaming about? What aspirations are you chasing for yourself and for the incredible brand you’re building? How can I help you throw a lasso around them and pull them down into your reality? 

But first, if we’re going to do this together, let’s do it right. We should start here…

brand photographer, creative production expert, and aesthetics-obsessed Dutchie with a constant craving for travel.

SYNERGY

Collaboration is the foundation of everything we do. Because two fem-led brands with untethered passion, working side-by-side to create something that leaves an impact on the world around us? That’s magic. When we combine our knowledge, our experiences, and our visions, the result is undoubtedly better than what we can do alone. 

Together, we’re bigger than a force of nature – we’re a force of creativity.
