Victoria Secret Florals

We took a few shots out the front of the house before heading to see the new version of Girl with a Dragon Tattoo. Easily one of the best films I have ever seen. I wish I had the vocabulary to explain a review, but I dont think it will give justice. I saw the original, and was entertained and intrigued, but the pumped up American version with the 007's Craig Daniel and the haunting Rooney Mara left me drowning in its mystery ~ in the best possible way. Those of you that know me, know that I am a cinema buff. I haven't been that impressed with a film since Batman Begins in 2005, and I went to see it 7 times! I saw Kill Bill 5 times for its cinematic genius. 7 years and countless films later, I have a new favourite. Highly recommended, but certainly not for the faint hearted - heavy stuff.

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.

Veiled

VEILED - exploring the significance throughout time and culture. Veils first appeared in ancient cultures as a form of protection from evil spirits. Its symbolism has changed over time, from status in society, to sign of innocence and propriety. 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
