We Don't Have Time for This — VIP Listener Lunches, Sydney

Two best friends, two working mums, a lot of opinions, and absolutely no time to waste, and yet somehow, they made time for this.

Documenting the VIP listener lunches for We Don't Have Time for This  - the podcast hosted by childhood besties Gemma Peanut and Kate Reeves - was exactly as warm and chaotic and joy-filled as you'd expect from a community built around real talk and genuine connection. Two intimate gatherings, two beautiful Sydney venues: the iconic Manly Pavilion overlooking the harbour, and the gorgeous Cibaria.

These weren't your typical branded events. They were lunches - real ones - where loyal listeners got to pull up a chair with the voices they'd had in their ears and just hang out. My role was to capture all of it: the laughter, the candid conversations, the moments between moments.

Venues: Manly Pavilion (2025) & Cibaria, Sydney (2026)
