SALTY - where strength meets serenity
Sunlit, Salt-Kissed and Unapologetically Confident
The SALTY collection embodies the quiet strength and luminous beauty of model Catherine Dakowah, whose presence is both commanding and serene. Captured along the rugged coastline of Burleigh Heads, these images celebrate the tactile allure of the sea—sandy textures, salty skin, and the golden interplay of light and water. The collection blends moments of introspection with striking, powerful poses, creating a narrative of connection—to nature, to self, and to the elements.
With frangipani flowers nestled in windswept hair and ocean water glistening on her sunlit skin, each frame evokes a sense of natural elegance and timeless femininity. SALTY invites you to feel the breeze, the warmth of the sun, and the grounding texture of sand—an ode to the ocean’s ability to inspire strength and stillness in equal measure.
