  • Dirty Water

    Dirty Water

    Following the Painted Planets posts, I thought I’d share with you some in-between and after shots, when we were playing around with the paint and the dirty water. I quite like the effects. x desleyjane

  • Favourite Place/Space

    Favourite Place/Space

    I have had a few favourite places and I’ve spoken about them before. I used to say that the Qantas lounge was one of my favourite places because it meant that I was almost home. It meant that I could have a glass of wine and call a favourite person or read a good book…

  • My Other Life

    My Other Life

    For those of you who don’t know, I have a mild (not mild) addiction to stationery, which I blog about elsewhere. My favourite brand is kikki.K and I post lots of photos of their products (and others) on my other Instagram account (@desleyjane_plans). They recently contacted me to ask me to join them on a…

  • A Purple Posey

    A Purple Posey

    I picked up this beautiful posey from Art Stems on Lygon on Sunday and spent some time photographing it. For this first post, here it is from 4 different sides. More close-ups to come, of course! Have a fabulous day. x desleyjane

  • Colours of Summer

    Colours of Summer

    Julz had wanted to melt some icy poles for a shoot, so she picked up a box of them and we went through them all to find the colours we wanted. I think these colours and these photos really represent summer for me. It brings back memories of summer at home with my family, and…

    F(rose)n in Time (2)

    As I mentioned in my last F(rose)n post, I took a lot of photos of those roses in ice, so here are some more. These shots give you some more details of the ice itself, which fascinated me. I’ll start with two sets of colour vs monochrome. There are a lot more I’d like to…

  • A Little Bit of Flatlay Fun

    A Little Bit of Flatlay Fun

    I love flatlay photography – it’s my favourite type of product photography. I love pottering around the house, looking for objects that work perfectly together in the shot. This pink shoot had been percolating around in my head for a while. I started this morning, by stopping off at my local bakery on the way…

  • Five Minutes with Skittles & Julz – RegularRandom

    Five Minutes with Skittles & Julz – RegularRandom

    The first little station Julie had set up for us was a melting skittles station. We set them up in a circle on a plate and hit them with hot water. Here are the 5 minutes that followed. Make sure you check out Julie’s shots of the same setup here. And afterwards, of course, I…

    F(rose)n in Time (1)

    Last weekend, we had a public holiday on Monday for Labour Day and my friend Julie invited me to join her in her studio for a mystery photo shoot. “Bring your camera and a sense of adventure,” she said. Julie had prepared a series of awesome little workstations for us to photograph. My favourite was…

  • Fruit with Cream

    Fruit with Cream

    The fabulous Julie invited me to her place yesterday (Monday) for a “mystery photo shoot”. She told me to bring my camera and my sense of adventure, nothing else. And she told me nothing, except – it could get messy! She had a bunch of experimental shoots set up and we dove right in. This…

  • Wild Hearts

    Wild Hearts

    There’s not enough rope to tie me down There’s not enough tape to shut this mouth The stones you throw can make me bleed But I won’t stop until we’re free Wild hearts can’t be broken No, wild hearts can’t be broken -P!nk, Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken. No matter what you’re up against –…
