Make Dreams Happen Now

All pictures by Eva Tralala

It's the small things in life that last with us forever. A lot of those unexplained experiences rooted deep down within us develop from our time at home.  It's the simple things including streamers falling down on you at your birthday party; looking out your window on a rainy day when you're feeling ill;  your dad teaching you how to play a board game for the first time...

I stumbled upon photographer Eva Tralala's blog Make Dreams Happen Now and I knew I discovered something special.   Why? I connected to the romantic images instantly relating to my similar experiences. What I love about the home is how the skin of the building displays the history and the scars but it's not until you go inside you experience the heart and personality. It's here  we discover how to make our dreams a reality.

FAMILY

I came across this stunning new book FAMILY at my local bookstore, Waterstone's, the other day. I instantly thought how some of you would sacrafice a weeks worth of coffee in exchange for this beautifully shot book.










I love Familys' celebration for freindship and how for some their strong bonds develop into becoming a family unit. For many years, Lauren Dukoff has been photographing close friend and musician Devendra Banhart and an extended, loose-knit international family of artists who share inspiration variously from folk, Tropicalia, and each other, as well as a range of other musical influences. FAMILY is a collection of Dukoff's striking portraits and candid images of Banhart, Joanna Newsom, Bat for Lashes, Feathers, Espers, Vetiver, Bert Jansch, Vashti Bunyan, and many others individually and together, in performance and more private spaces.

Handmade Home

Photographer, designer, mum and blogger Elisabeth Dunker has over the years captured through the lens how she has found inspiration to design her family home.
