At US & IRIS we want to empower the creatives who shape our world. Founded by Sharleen Christie, a fashion advertising photographer, the brand was born from her relentless pursuit of a camera bag that could seamlessly combine style with protection. Sharleen’s dual love for fashion and photography drove her to create a line of accessories that empower creatives to carry their craft with confidence and sophistication.
At US & IRIS, style and functionality are non-negotiable. This space is your destination for inspiration—from industry trends to expert tips and stories that celebrate photographers across Australia and beyond. Here, you’ll find everything from the latest gear innovations to creative hacks that inspire your next frame.
US & IRIS is our tribute to those who see the world differently, capturing its beauty and stories to share with us all. It's not just a bag; it's your vision, your craft, your legacy.

The name US & IRIS reflects our purpose:
US symbolizes our community of creators, photographers, and storytellers—individuals who work behind the scenes yet shape how we experience the world. It’s about connection and shared creativity.
IRIS represents the part of the lens that controls light, essential for capturing life’s perfect moments. It’s also a symbol of vision and inspiration, aligning with our commitment to elevating creators.
Together, US & IRIS is a tribute to those who see the world differently and share its beauty with us all. It’s not just about the bag; it’s about your vision, your craft, and your legacy.
The journey began with a problem: camera bags that lacked style and practicality. Sharleen envisioned a solution that embraced her belief that creatives shouldn’t have to choose between style and functionality. The result? The Noir Mirage Camera Bag—a sleek, sophisticated accessory designed for modern photographers. It’s more than just a bag; it’s a statement of timeless luxury and refined practicality.
For Sharleen and the US & IRIS team, this brand is more than an accessory line—it’s a movement. Every product undergoes meticulous months of design and innovation to ensure it meets the demands of a dynamic, on-the-go lifestyle. From creators capturing fleeting moments to professionals crafting visual masterpieces, US & IRIS provides tools that inspire confidence and artistry.
