I completely forgot to post a picture of my new moodboard for Spring! I wanted to go for more of a colourful theme that would motivate me to go outside more. So far, it's working 😁🌷🌿
Spring is in full bloom in this lovely family session at Deas Island Park.
Daffodils, sunshine and a super smiley baby – what could be better for this lovely family session at Deas Island Park in Ladner? I’ve had the pleasure of photographing Lindsay’s family for many, many years and every single session is full of laughter, silliness and so much love. I’ve watched her kids grow from teeny babies and toddlers to caring and adorably goofy children. We’ve laughed through…
grape hyacinths are one of my favorite spring ephemerals. not only are they adorable, but the flowers can be used for making syrup that tastes faintly and sweetly of grapes.
and if that’s not your thing, they can also be used for making color-changing ink. the initial ink might look purple in color, but as it hits the paper and begins to dry it will turn blue. and if you add an acid, it will turn pink. and if you add a basic it will turn green (you can do this with the syrup, too!)
this happens because of naturally-occurring pigments called anthocyanins – the same pigments found in purple cabbage, violets, and blueberries!
early march '24 🐈⬛️ practising my russian, wasting time at cafes, and frequenting places that are way too cool for me — it feels nice to be able to leave the house without risking frostbite and pneumonia
