My Friday Finds…Gifts in the mail and still life love.
I must begin with a lovely and truly generous gift from Caz….
Oh my gosh…. I’m completely touched that you shared your beautiful bobbins with me Caz!!
Seriously… I have bobbins on my prop wish list……… and oh my gosh… poof… here they are.
How completely generous….. Truly so very kind.
Biggest gratitude sweet friend.
Still life Love
Seems there’s always a little something-something we are hunting for… beautiful things to photograph….
If it’s not bobbins….it’s spoons or bottles, bits or bobs….
Don’t you find?
But the truth is….. we don’t have to look far to find something to capture…..

Blossom branches, fallen leaves, a cuppa tea, a bottle, a bloom….. a sprig of ivy, a ball of string….linen, family photos…
Truly…. I have at least a full lifetime of props to pick from….and I bet many of you do too.
So if still life is new to you…. don’t feel you have to have a buncha props and drops to get started….
Even if your supplies are limited…
As we say in The Studio…..we just need to shop our house… open a few drawers and doors, take a walk in the garden….
There’s pretty much always something to capture.
One of the BEST thing about still life photography….in my opinion…..
It allows us to slow down….
truly see….b r e a t h e…and be….
There’s no rush…our subject isn’t going anywhere…..
and….
Before long….
we learn to master the light, control our camera….. and truly grow as photographers….
It happened to me…and I’ve seen in happening over and over with the amazing students of Be Still…and the Studio members….
So exciting.
Bonus…
you can take that skill with you…into other styles of photography……
