Dom had previously shared her 'nerves' ahead of the shoot, which she organised in her hotel room during a 'babymoon' in Sydney with her mum.

Dom, who has become known for her candid and honest chats about mental health, said she had initially felt anxious about the trip.
"It's been nice to get out of my comfort zone just by being out of my normal habitat, out of my house and in a different environment," Dom said.
"I had a bit of anxiety to start off with because I just felt like 'oh I don't have my creature comforts here, I'm in a hotel', but it's just been really nice.
"It's been super nice to spend time with my mum and, I don't know, just have that time because baby girl is going to be here very soon and then life's going to change."
