A house in Brunswick

Baby friends.

At the end of it all.. it was You.

 

You were leaning out the blacony.

 

The hot sun blazing down on your caramel skin.

 

A slight breeze whispering through the terrace doors.

 

Q-tip was playing through the computer speakers.. the soft beats a perfect companion to a lazy summer afternoon.

 

 

I rolled out of bed and walked up behind you.

 

Moving to your side, I perched my arms on the balcony ledge.

 

We looked ahead at the blue sky and let the sun soak into our skins.

 

 

I looked at you, you turned to me.

 

Your blue eyes piercing through.

 

 

 

I think it was then that I realised..

 

I was in love.

 

 

 

And that's how it was going to be for the rest of my life.

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Anniversary.

 

 

 



Earth meets home.

I fell in love today.. with an inanimate object.

Well, a whole lot of inanimate objects bunched together in a lovely home.

Combining every aesthetic I love, Julie Pointer's home exuberates raw, earthy goodness highlighted by drops of colour.

So great.

Bloom

Years ago I went to a psychic who told me that I should start gardening.

She said it was something I would do often in the future.

She said it would be a source of great happiness and well-being.

At the time I smiled politely.. but in my mind I was rolling my eyes at the thought of being knee up in dirt.

I was a teenager.

I was a lot more interested in rock n' roll -- then bulbs and spatulas.

But my, how things of changed since turning the corner of adulthood.

Flowers markets make me giddy and a trip to Bunnings is the highlight of the weekend.

Now that I've got my own place I can't wait to start growing herbs, plants and of course the odd cactus.

Here's some bloomy inspo to get me going.. I'll be posting pictures from our plant-loved home soon.

Where is Romance?

Brian W. Ferry takes the most beautiful photos of.. well, nothing really.

A bathroom sink, his glasses on the table, a door down the street.

It's in these simple, everyday moments, that he finds romance.

I've always loved finding beauty in the ordinary.

It's something I'd like to introduce to my film photography.

Raw, ordinary, beautiful.

I'm hoping to do a similar series focusing on the street I just moved in to.

Stay tuned..

Crib.

I'm moving into a cosy (aka small) apartment this weekend with my manfriend.

It's a first for many.

First time I won't be living in a share house, first time it'll be just me and the boy.

I'm looking forward to walking around naked, watching re-runs of Skins and calling the shots on lights out.

And even though it's a rental, I'm really looking forward to decorating my own space.

Need some ideas no?
