kiwi street studios {blog}

oh! i am sooooo bad, i’ve been holding back some omg exciting news! before we left on vacation at the beginning of july, i did it! kiwi street studios now actually has a ‘studio!’ i am beeeside myself!
i truly did not intend to have one, but i admit i have been secretly looking…and then it just…happened. what can i say.
ok. true, it’s really teeny tiny, but full of character. true, my signs are not up yet. true, you have to go through an iron gate, down the most charming bricked, grape and twinkling lighted alley to get to it. true, i can work on my computer, meet with friends or clients, sip tea or better yet, wine, under the grape trellis complete with hanging candelabra and bistro chairs (still looking for the perfect table.) true, right now it’s got turquoise painted wooden floors. true, it’s immersed in with other artists and cool shop owners in oakley’s oh so hot (and getting hotter) art district. true, it’s in walking distance to soooo many great shooting areas that it hurts. true, it’s only 60 or so feet from my own front door. true, it’s ‘my’ own space, my girlie playhouse.  so…can you really blame me!
now the real fun has begun. the design of the space. of course i’ve added things i love, but i’ve been sitting in it, staring at it from all angles, all hours of the day and night trying to get my feel for it before i really ‘do’ anything to it. i’ll take you along on the journey of now and where we end up.
so, for now, little snippets of kiwi street’s studio;)

and last night….my kind of pre production meeting for an awesome upcoming project…stay tuned for more details…

feeling blessed.
