a little food . a little styling {just for fun}

one fine day, one phone conversation and two minds spinning turned into
three days later, an afternoon, two girls, a long table of props, fabrics,
colourful foods {nothing went to waste}, beautiful window light and our
own creative ideas. this is what happens when it’s winter and all of a sudden
there is time to work on some of the things you’re always talking about doing.
my most talented set stylist friend, nora, {you may remember her help with this shoot} is working on
putting her website together. i’ve been playing around with shooting food here and there and really
wanted to do more of it. perfect. something for each of us.
next time we just need to plan a longer afternoon.
can’t wait for our next play date.

we started inside and simple.
textures and colour.
i’m in love with the stack of the wooden plates that she found.

and i was fawning over these vintage dinner plates with the delicate marigold {such a happy colour} designs.

then we carried our basket outside for a few shots.
nora’s house reminds me of a summer cabin complete with
outbuildings, strung lights and…
green saw horses with a weathered top just for us to shoot on.
wow, thank you universe.

i love nora’s font door…the colours, the weathered striped awning..so happy and welcoming.
a perfect place to perch with a hot cup of french onion soup.
