Autunno a Firenze

And I'm back! A week in Florence has still not been enough to get over the culture shock of the last 3 magical weeks in Thailand - Opposite in every way. The most evident being the weather, paired with the fact I was not prepared for anything more than laying on a beach sipping cocktails in bikini's, and at most a sarong (you have seen my previous posts :) New timezone, new season and I'm less than prepared - thanks to good friends and their sisters who wear the same size - I've been able to borrow enough warmth and get by on 2 pairs of jeans and a pea coat - unfortunately not enough to provide you with interesting outfit posts... but i'll do my best!

I'm wearing United Colours of Benetton Maron pea coat / Giordano Blue Jeans / Cashmere scarf / Magenta Handbag from MBK Thailand / Wink Flats

Starting this journey into photography feels like catching up with an old friend – my trusty Canon camera, a gift from my filmmaker dad over a decade ago. While life kept me busy raising my wonderful daughters, Sahana and Dylana, I put photography on hold for bedtime stories. But now, as I dive into learning about product photography, my creativity sparks. Behind the lens, I'm not just snapping pictures; I'm capturing memories and stories, a talent I believe runs in the family. The classroom has become a safe space filled with inspiration, where my classmates and I cheer each other on. Here, my knack for styling fits right in, blending with the skills of others. And our teachers, full of wisdom and encouragement, make every click of the camera feel like a chance for something great.

While some view the veil as a way to divide god and men, biblically the veil is seen as access, unity and intimacy with the Divine. Besides its enduring religious significance, veiling continues to play a role in almost all cultures on the planet to this day. I've worn veils throughout my life, all 3 of my weddings, religious ceremonies an aplenty of times for fun. Like this shoot with my girls (and self portraits on timer). And the significance of the rose.... that's for another time
