Eco Photographer An interview of ethically focussed photographer, Alicia Fox in Muse Magazine Australia’s newest magazine for inspiration, self-help and culture, featured an interview about my work as an eco photographer. The article explores my journey from being a teenager driven to fulfil my dreams of travel and photography, to the journey that entailed, learning about what is really important to me and utilising my profession to work towards a better world. As you can read below, photography has taken me around the globe, discovering incredible cultures and learning from some of the most ancient and untouched peoples in the world today. These lessons are priceless and I am extremely grateful for the journey thus far. Being an eco photographer and living a sustainable lifestyle in both my professional and personal life is something extremely important to me, and something that I’ve written about in previous blog posts. My work with indigenous groups and NGOs around the world has contributed to this greatly. Once visiting these places and sitting to talk with the people effected by climate change, corporate greed, environmental destruction and so on, it’s impossible to turn a blind eye and un-care. Everyone can make […] Read More

Yoga photography shoot in Crescent Head, Mid North Coast NSW. Yoga Photography marries two of my greatest passions. We did this styled photo shoot on our property in Crescent Head. Bringing our own lives into the shoot made it simple and a lot of fun. I have been practicing yoga for 17 years…exactly half of my life. It has been on and off over the years but these days I find yoga such an important part of my life, physically, mentally and spiritually. I can’t imagine ever going without it again. It has also lead me to great friends, beautiful destinations and amazing experiences. I am so grateful for my weekly yoga meet up with my good friends. We practice an hour of yoga each Sunday morning, followed by half an hour of meditation. Afterwards we share a pot (I mean a five litre pot) of chai, with plates fruit and nuts. It is a sacred part of every week for me. I’m also doing two classes a week at The Yoga Shala in Port Macquarie. These photos are from a recent shoot I did for I am That Yoga, a yoga […] Read More
Just because you live in Inner City Sydney, doesn’t mean you can’t live out your eco homesteading dreams. I do my best to be as green as possible in every aspect of my life, from growing my own organic vegetables to living in a chemical free home. I do what is best for our environment, which includes what is best for my own health. After all, we humans are part of the eco system too. The Kitchen Above 1. Each Sunday I walk down to Addison Road Markets in Marrickille, to buy my chemical-free fruit and veges (my own garden is only 2 months old so just produces salad greens so far). I talk to the stall owners to find out about that week’s produce. The delicious, gluten free bread is freshly made by the lovely folks at Common Ground, a commune not far from Sydney. 2. My first crop of (giant) home grown mushrooms. They were the sweetest mushrooms I’ve ever eaten. 3. My seeds, nuts and dried foods come from Alfalfa House Co-op (Enmore), my favourite place to shop. The stock is as organic, local and ethically produced as possible. I love the co-op so much that I volunteer […] Read More
Being an Eco Photographer means reducing the environmental impact of every aspect of my business, and working with (i.e. producing photos for) clients that have a positive impact on the environment. I was trying to formulate an explanation as to why I’ve decided to be an “Eco Photographer” and what this actually means. Then one day three things happened to me and I became so impassioned that I did what anyone would do… I got on my soapbox (i.e. my personal Facebook wall) and shared what I was feeling with my friends and family. I received such an overwhelmingly supportive response that I decided to include my little story on this blog. It gives you an idea of how I live my personal life, which crosses over into my business life. So here it is: I don’t often put unhappy things on Facebook but I feel the need to share this today It has 3 parts, and hopefully is inspiring: 1. James came home and told me, with a smile, that he had a song stuck in his head all day, the song of some beautiful girls from the Ashaninka tribe we stayed with by Ene River, in […] Read More
