piece of my soul

Location: Matarangi

I haven't done any fancy editing on these images because i wanted you to see how wonderful it is, even without filters and overlays and such.

This is just a small glimpse,
but if i could take you there,
i could show you everything with my eyes closed.

things i love

> seeing nothing but sea and sky.
> floating just beyond the breakers.
> the decision to go over or dive under.
> exploring the rockpools barefoot.
> finding starfish and other sea-dwellers.
> breathing that glorious sea air.
> the energy that the ocean gives you.
> that moment when you feel like nothing is as perfect as your situation right now.

Pool Party

flowers & bows

i bought this dress from the St Vincent de Paul opshop because i saw potential.
Plus it was only $4. Ohh how i love opshopping.

The dress that inspired me had a giant heart cut out of the back. (so very cool)
The pattern on the material is tiny white bows, so i thought thatclearly a big cut out bow would fit the bill.

Location: Ohope.

i saw these clouds from the dinner table.
That's White Island in the middle.

yellow roses

i love having actual photo albums,
and i was looking through mine with a huge nostalgia.
life has been so brilliant.
filled with beautiful people and places.
the images above are of polaroids taken for my 7th form ball.
that was the first time anyone had ever given me flowers.
and they were yellow, my absolute favourite colour.
i just wanted to share these pictures because they are imperfect, but i love them.
