Hosted by photographer Amber Melody, I AM is an experimental mixed-media platform that is part-photographic journal / part-podcast for the modern woman.

Join us every week for candid, relaxed conversations where together we traverse our intimate and often complex thoughts on self-love, style, art, ambition, wisdom and everything in between.

These are interviews - and accompanying portraits - to evoke, empower and inspire... because we all have a story to tell. What’s yours?

Making your Own Way in The Fashion Industry // with petite model Zoe Elyse

Making your Own Way in The Fashion Industry // with petite model Zoe Elyse

At 5’2” today’s guest has made her mark on the fashion industry with unique passion, punch and personality. Zoe Elyse’s stellar modelling career has challenged many mainstream norms so it felt pretty cool that before we sat down for this remotely-recorded conversation where we discuss body-diversity, representation, how she got into modelling & the changing landscape of fashion - I photographed Zoe in her home in LA from my home in Byron Bay, Australia - using some clunky wifi connections and the wonders of FaceTime. This is a new age, the rules are changing, and I for one am excited to start exploring the new frontier, so please make sure you visit the journal to see the photos we took as I welcome Zoe Elyse to the stage that is I AM. Let’s go!
