Something Blue - bracelet

This one is a little different. Everything I've been making so far is very simple and small. So I was in the mood for something a little bigger and a little more fun.

The flower is handmade and the pearls are freshwater. I want to eventually add a strand of clear crystals to the bracelet.

I think I need to photograph models wearing this stuff. Anyone own a white dress? :)

Dos Amigos

On Sunday I had the pleasure of photographing a talented music duo from Brisbane called Dos Amigos. Lauren, Andrew and I had a lot of fun, which was the vibe they wanted in the photos. I've been dying to take someone to El Taco on Blackwood St for a while now - I just love the colours - and I thought it fitting for the Amigos. They agreed. :) Hope you like the photos!

But that was just the outside - the inside was more amazing than I could have imagined!

Then we headed across the road to the train station...

And then to a couple of brick walls...

...and we called it a day. :)

Something Blue - earrings

I love these hoops. There's going to be more of these coming out soon! These ones are amazonite.

I do wonder if I should name my jewellery. Anyone have any ideas? :)

Nue Blue

These little pretties are Peruvian Amazonite. I think I'm starting to like this type of photography. It's a fun challenge coming up with new places to display the jewellery to keep it interesting enough, but not take away from the actual product.

Polaroids

Yes, they are all from the same template, but if you ignore the numbers, and the fact that each photo is scratched in the exact same place, you might appreciate the vintage, story-telling quality that Polaroid film delivers -- the reason why I so badly want a Polaroid camera!

These are from yesterday at the beach. I love the textures.

Also, it's hard to tell, but photo number 8 is a pair of sea slugs. Well, I think they are actually called "nudie branches" - but I don't know why.
