    Happy Mother’s Day – Five Minutes with a Red Rose – RegularRandom

    Happy Mother’s Day lovelies! As you probably know, I love having fresh flowers in my home and one of the reasons is that I can shoot them if I feel like it. And I usually feel like it. If you remember my post from a couple of weeks ago ( Fresh Flowers ) I went…

  • My last post of the Lavender Roses

    My last post of the Lavender Roses

    My pictures are my eyes. I photograph what I see – and what I want to see. – Mario Testino I feel like I’ve shared a couple of these before, but this is the final set from my shoot. These were gorgeous, so much lovely creaminess. I used my Olympus OMD EM5 with 30mm macro…

    Soft & Dreamy – Lavender Roses

    I hope you aren’t getting tired of my lavender roses. I promise there’s a new set of non-rose flowers coming soon. But I really enjoyed this shoot, you know how I love to just settle in with my camera, and then there’s that very special feeling of macro – focusing only the details, getting the…

    Five Minutes F(rose)n in Darkness – RegularRandom

    Remember when Julie and I shot frozen flowers? One of the flowers was a peach-coloured rose – so pretty. Julie has this great dark corner set up with a scarred old wooden table, so we set up the ice block there to shoot it in the dark, so different to the light and bright shots…

    Dogwood Rose, Frozen

    As you know, I was obsessed with Julie’s set up for frozen flowers melting under the camera. Today, I’m sharing with you the second flower, a Dogwood rose. In real life, it seemed a little boring to shoot since the petals became quite limp when wet, unlike the previous peach rose. But when I was…

    Another little post with these beautiful peach roses. I zeroed in on the ice strings down on that leaf under the flower. One more post on these roses to come, then I’m done, I swear. x desleyjane

    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…

    Five Minutes with a Rose in Decay – RegularRandom

    For those of you who remember my special shoot for a friend’s 30th Wedding Anniversary, this is one of the roses left over from that shoot. I have him the rest of the bunch to give to his wife, but I kept this one since it was already cut. It dried over the Christmas break…
