Yellow is sunshine
pollen from the pine tree
honey of the hive
back of the bumblebee
the Autumn moon
It’s springtime
and warmth
and a hug
in your mother’s arms
It’s joy and it’s love
Yellow is
buttercups and daffodils
smiling up at me
embracing and illuminating
the wintered earth

My colleague and dear friend, Claire Morgan, teased that I loved Stockholm so much because half of my ancestors are from there. Perhaps.
Or perhaps it is the beautiful people, rich foliage, strong breeze, fresh produce — you get my drift.
While I did enjoy the unique patterns (stripes, gingham and polk-a-dots aplenty), I most loved the simple lines, colors and textures.
Meet Mathilda, a Taylor Swift lookalike whose groom will be lucky to have her. She is graceful and contemplative. I collaborated with stylist/photographer Wilma Howells and photographer/life friend Claire Morgan on this shoot. We wanted to show the innocence of youth, the transition to adulthood and to eventual marriage. We found that in Mathilda. I love the look of hope, promise, optimism I see in her eyes.
Du and Jag = You and Me
Feeling inspired by a recent styled shoot in Stockholm, Sweden. More to come soon!
In light or shadow,
current or timeless,
elegance can
beautifully
renew.
