I did it! A month of photos on my DSLR! I really enjoyed the process of bringing my camera along for my daily photos, which I already do on my phone. But this month, I really tried to branch out and have different photos for both mediums. Such as, one day it was a chicken on my camera while it was scones on the phone. Meant I had to look for two bright sparks in a sometimes boring day (: Below are the rest of the days of the month that haven’t been posted and I’ll post the highlights shortly! This month included a trip to Perth and a short visit to New Zealand for a wedding, so while it was often a month filled with loooong work days, it was nicely bookended by those little trips, which do so much for rejuvenating my soul <3
Day 14: Another loooong work day, punctured by a little walk around the neighbourhood
Day 15: Otto looking like how we all feel at the end of a Friday at the end of a long week!
Day 16: Book Club! Last one for the year and having to say some goodbyes is always really sad (Bye Maddy!)

Beautiful Finds: Dream Parties / So much light, I am in love with this / Christmas is just around the corner / This photo just makes me more excited for Venice next year
Day 9: This was the breakfast of the bridesmaids. I am very lucky to be a bridesmaid of one of my closest friends Emily (this is her at her lovely engagement party), and this past Saturday we all went out for breakfast together before looking at wedding dresses for Em and agreeing on our own bridesmaid dresses – I am so excited to wear them. This delicious meal was at Maddox in Brunswick and this was the amazing Tuscan eggs.

Day 8: It was a crummy day. It started very early and kind of alright but that all ended when this happened. My phone fell off a wall taking this photo: sadface. A few other things went wrong in the day but being the optimist that I am, in order to remember this day as not being the end of the world, the below picture makes me happy because ivy covering houses is one of my weaknesses. Lucky for me, there are a lot near my work!

Some beautiful treasures I’ve found: Gorgeous cuddles / Terrific Twins / Have no words for how awesome this one is / A Sunday’s worth of hard work
Day 7: I was asked to shoot the launch of Etchings this past Thursday. It was a really fun event to be a part of and this is just an example of their beautiful publication.

Some of my favourites I’ve come across this month are: Leaf selfies / Bird clocks / Big beautiful Eyes / my absolute favourite doll, the Babushka doll / Something you don’t see very often
Day 6: I said a potential goodbye to this bed. It is my boyfriend’s loft bed that he is considering taking down after exams next week. He built it himself with his Dad and it rescued us from a single bed and I loved everything about this bed for the last three years. Except climbing into it. Originally, we had to climb up a rope ladder. I hated it. He has long legs and takes no time at all to get up there, but for me it was always a stressful experience and heaven forbid if I forgot something! However, last year he found a metal ladder to use for the bed and it was one of my happiest moments – knowing that that rope ladder would no longer be in my life! He may take it down to re design his room and I think it’s a good idea, but I wanted to remember this bed – hence it being the photo of the day for November 6, 2013.
Day 5: The first Tuesday of every November is Melbourne Cup day. It is a public holiday in Melbourne, so the long weekend gave me the chance to run away to Perth for the weekend. So for the first time since I moved to Melbourne, I watched Melbourne Cup interstate. We had the required Sweepstakes – Gail won and then Barbar (my grandma) came second and third – and we had delicious food. This was finished off with cups of tea and gorgeous orange cake. It was a beautiful sun filled day, spent with family and friends we have known for so long that they are family now.
Day 3: My grandparents’ house in Perth is full of wonderful things from their travels around the world. This trip over I spent a lot of time taking photos of these particular objects – so that crazy and amazing things will always be remembered. This particular pot is used as a coffee table out on their verandah next to their bedrooms.
