About

SIDE-NOTE is a platform that tells stories of style and substance, merging the gap between contemporary culture and fashion.

With a focus on photography and film, we celebrate the creative mind, the independent spirit and people with purpose.

We publish quality editorial and branded content. Our themed editions allow for thoughtful consideration of what is happening now. With uninhibited creative output as king, we champion our artistic community to perpetuate meaningful narratives and present new ideas that are representative of our time.

SIDE-NOTE PROJECTS – may the best idea win. We work with best-of-breed collaborators to deliver and publish work that is both beautiful and results driven. Rejecting a typical advertising model in favour of content production, SIDE-NOTE acts as a trusted conduit between creator and client.

“They had nothing to say to each other. A five-year age gap between siblings is like a garden that needs constant attention. Even three months apart allows the weeds to grow up between you.”

SHE’S LIKE THE WIND BY DIVYA BALA AND LEVON BAIRD

SHE’S LIKE THE WIND BY DIVYA BALA AND LEVON BAIRD

Once, summer meant endless feverish days bookended by the briefest winks of velvet night; a humming cicada song over a metronomic percussion of ice cubes against sweating glass; salt waves that washed overhead like a pulse and the echo of heat from every side and from below.

SEA. LARA WORTHINGTON BY DARREN MCDONALD

SEA. LARA WORTHINGTON BY DARREN MCDONALD

The gravitational push and pull of the moon is such that it sways the tide as it orbits around the earth. For six hours the ocean will creep up the shore, before receding for another six hours, and on and on it goes. Much like the ceaseless lunar allure makes the waves, the siren call of the sea is as constant as it is crisp — a formative blue interlude that reminds us who we are. Darren McDonald shoots Lara Worthington in Sydney, Australia.

Remember This Feeling by Divya Bala

Remember This Feeling by Divya Bala

Possession is symbiotic, the things we have, have us. There’s an intimacy that binds, that is forged as they live with you, against your skin.

BY HAND BY KELLY GEDDES AND MARIELA SUMMERHAYS

BY HAND BY KELLY GEDDES AND MARIELA SUMMERHAYS

We crave for the satisfaction of hand moving yarn across, in and around itself; before we wish for elbow driving forward circular saw and the confirmation of progress by sawdust in the air. Driven by this dormant urge, there are those like furniture designer Livio Tobler and Ted O'Donnell, garment designer Xizhu Wu, Nathaniel Youkhana, and Daisy Barrow Piper, who are reclaiming the old way of craftsmanship, and finding pleasure in the act of slow and meditative methods of creating art.
