    HerStory Episode 73: Maha Dunne from Luxe Memories Australia

    Join Kylie King, founder of Australian Ladies in Business Initiative as she talks to Maha Dunne of Luxe Memories Australia. Luxe Memories Australia was founded on a promise I made to my Mum. Although Mum lived a traditional life as a mother and homemaker, she had an entrepreneurial spirit and I’m sure she would have loved to have her own business. Her dearest wish was to see her children thrive and succeed doing work they loved. Dad’s passion was photography – even though it was a ‘hobby’, he was rarely seen without a camera hanging around his neck! He would have loved the smartphone era! Dad’s sudden passing devastated the family and created an urgent need in me to preserve his legacy of thousands of printed photos. I took up the mantle of family historian and archivist. Mum could clearly see how much preserving our family’s history meant to me. When Mum eventually needed residential care and the contents of her home were distributed among the family (an emotional and heartbreaking time), she gave me the push I needed to create my own business to help other families preserve their memories. So, after a career that included several ‘reinventions’ from Beauty Therapist to Personal Assistant to Billing and IT Support for corporate clients, my little business was born. Luxe Memories Australia provides a customised, end to end service, starting with the curation of your images (hardcopy and digital), we can include images of family documents or favourite items – like that ever present linen or lace tablecloth on the dining table, favourite pieces of jewellery, or a worn-out pair of sneakers; and we weave them into a beautifully crafted, custom designed photobook that tells your story – a tangible keepsake that you can pass down through generations. We can also create books for your business. Each book can be printed on a variety of premium quality papers with a range of high quality cover finishes that reflect your personality, values and style. We want you to sit down with your book and lose yourself in the memories and emotions on every page. Besides the gift of time spent together, these are your most precious assets - your images – the stories that come flooding back, the smell of meals cooking in your Mum’s kitchen and the bonds you formed over a lifetime of adventures! Why create a photobook? Because regardless of how technology evolves over the years, you will always be able to open your book and share your stories with those that are dearest to you – being able to do this is absolutely priceless! It’s my privilege to work with clients to create a treasured photobook or album they will enjoy for many years to come.

    HerStory 70: Julie Ross from Angelic Inspirations

    Join Kylie King, founder of Australian Ladies in Business Initiative, as she talks to Julie Ross of Angelic Inspirations. Julie's bio: Hello, my name is Julie Ross and I am the very proud owner of a gorgeous little bridal boutique located in Canberra; Angelic Inspirations. I am 57 years old, the Mum of two lovely teenage daughters and wife to a wonderful and ridiculously supportive husband, Matthew. I fondly describe the purchase of Angelic Inspirations as the best midlife crisis I have ever had! At the time the business was advertised, I was on maternity leave and looking for a career change. I happened to stumble across the advertisement and began thinking, ‘What if...?’ The move was a big change for me but perfect for my 15 years’ experience in management, retail and customer service roles with Qantas and over 10 years’ experience in training and HR. With two littlies under 2, I knew I didn’t want to go back into the corporate world and I had always wanted to work for myself. The shop was local to me and had real sentimental value – I’d bought my own wedding dress there. At age 45, I took the plunge and bought the shop, telling myself I would give it a red hot crack for five years and then reassess. We are now in our 12th year of operation and I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER…. About Angelic Inspirations Angelic Inspirations is one of the most experienced bridal shops in the Canberra region. Located in Federation Square in Gold Creek, we predominantly sell beautiful, exceptionally well-produced wedding gowns. We offer a wide range of bridal accessories, veils, bridesmaids dresses and other formalwear, along with a gown cleaning service. We also stock a large range of plus size wedding gowns to cater to this very specific and important market. Our products are from a mix of local and international companies and are sourced from only the highest quality, reputable and trustworthy organisations. We’re open daily from 10am-3 or 4pm, extending to 5pm on weekends and 7pm on Thursdays by appointment when needed. Our business philosophy is centred on customer service. Rather than simply selling a dress, our goal is to create a positive, enjoyable experience for our customers. Our quaint, unpretentious boutique is designed to make our customers feel comfortable and welcome. In our experience, by delivering on exceptional customer service, customers return for other products or services or provide referrals down the track. This is achieved through our carefully designed customer service processes, which include surprising our customers with champagne on arrival and gifting them a specially designed ‘I Said Yes to My Dress’ cookie on the placing of an order. Also key is our individual appointments in our private fitting rooms, with each bride promised a one on one fitting with one of our consultants and a room to themselves for their entire appointment.
