About Me
Hi, I’m Edelcita, a Perth-based photographer with a passion for capturing genuine moments — from high fashion to heartfelt weddings.
My journey into photography began in 2002 when I studied Multimedia, which first sparked my interest in visual storytelling. At the time, I was traveling extensively while working for Emirates, and my preference for packing light meant my iPhone became my main camera. It was convenient, especially while exploring the world on layovers or holidaying across Europe with my young son. Looking back, I wish I had carried something more than just a phone — to properly capture moments like his wide-eyed wonder at the Eiffel Tower or the magic of the aurora borealis in Iceland.
That changed in 2018. While organizing a local fashion event in Perth called The Fashion Project, our photographer canceled last minute. I took a leap of faith — bought a crop sensor camera, and stepped in myself. That decision rekindled my love for photography and pushed me into taking it seriously.
My first international shoot was in Cambodia for the Miss Planet International Pageant, where I represented Australia as a National Director. That experience introduced me to incredible creatives and photographers in the modelling industry, many of whom I’m grateful to now call mentors and collaborators.
Today, I run Models and Pageant, a licensed modelling agency and creative hub. While my portfolio features a lot of portrait and fashion work, I never limit myself. I’ve photographed:
Weddings
Maternity shoots
Corporate events
Birthdays
Boudoir sessions
Products
Social media content
Families, and more
I'm also a qualified makeup artist and currently studying Advanced Diploma in Apparel, Textile & Fashion Design. I regularly shoot for fashion shows, particularly at North Metro TAFE, where I’m part of their media team, and occasionally volunteer at South Metro TAFE as well.
I shoot Canon cameras both in studio and outdoors, and I’m happy to travel to any location. One of my most extraordinary experiences was photographing Antarctica in December 2023 — a breathtaking moment I’ll never forget.
