chasing the sun with marianne roussety
An artist, a model, a woman chasing her dreams – Marianne Roussety is one of those free spirits who fits so well in the Byron Shire. Having shot for Auguste many times over the years, we’ve come to know her love for nature, passion for art and talent for finding special hideaways all through the hinterland and up and down the coast – all of which you can see colourfully tiled throughout her instagram feed. Learn more about Marianne below and see her in pieces from our latest collection, captured here by her partner Ben.

There’s nothing quite like early Byron mornings – 6 am, coffee in hand and heading to the shore to meet this beautiful soul. Shot between Broken Head and the sparkling waves below, this photo series is an ode to those Byron days when there’s just the sun, the sea and a wide open schedule.

tea time with kate dalton
They say there’s not much a good cup of tea can’t fix. Cue Kate Dalton. The founder of local Byron brand Mayde Tea dedicates her time to concocting therapeutic blends of organic tea with the best of nature’s nutrients. Informed by her knowledge of naturopathy (and beautiful taste in design), Mayde Tea’s brews are more than a good cuppa, they’re a ritual and a remedy – ones much loved by the Auguste team.

at home with church farm
Collectors of curious religious icons and antique pictures long before they even met, it was almost destined for Amanda Callan and Andrew Morris – co-founders of Church Farm General Store – to fall in love and find an old church to call home. The pair purchased the deconsecrated church 25 km north of Byron Bay a few years ago and have been renovating it into their dream family home since, only this summer converting it into a double-story space.
We visited the beautiful family to talk about country life, family time, and to snoop around their very special property.

influential paths with laura wells
As an international model and an environmental scientist, Laura Wells seems to live a bit of a double life. And yet, she’s constantly connecting these roles to make the world a better place by not only inspiring others but speaking up for causes she truly cares about – ones we care about too. From addressing the state of our oceans to advocating for women in scientific fields (herself included), this role model is paving some very important paths.

mornings with the daily bar
Al Thursfield has a built a career out of being busy – or maybe more so, by fueling the tank of those who are. The Byron local and food concoction genius is the founder of The Daily Bar, a range of nutritious, all natural and ridiculously tasty snack bars that cause a mini stampede in our office each time they’re restocked. We recently spent the morning with Al and her business partner Harry, basking in the early morning sun, getting salty in the surf, and restocking bars at their favourite cafe.

a byron kind of breakfast
We spend enough of our time indoors. Sometimes you just need to head outside, soak up some sunshine and come into the office a little late. Taking the morning into our hands, our marketing team recently packed some goodies, headed to Byron’s Tallow Beach and created a simple yet stunning breakfast to break up the week ~ it’s the most important meal of the day, afterall.
Get inspired below and head for the closest patch sun!

5 byron spots for little ones
South African-born, Byron-based photographer Gayle Martin knows her way around the bay. After stopping in Byron on a roadtrip eight years ago, she and her husband knew immediately the hinterland was the place for them. Having both grown up surrounded by wide open spaces and fresh air, it seemed like the perfect place to give their future family a similar upbringing – and after six years in the shire, one happy two-year-old and a baby on the way, they haven’t been wrong.
