Aaaaaaaah! Finally home! One week of partying in sweden with bunch of funny people is bliss, but at the sametime very tiering cause you do not know the word sleep during that time. I'm gonna be home for one more day and then it's time for me to head óut to D.C. for my friends wedding and then to Cali to do my intership. Here's few wedding pics I took few months back. hope you enjoy them and if I don't have the time to update tomorrow (well actually it's already today) then I'll have to say adios for a little while and I'll update from U.S.A asap!
once again I'm sorry peeps for not updating. Life is keeping me busy as always, which is wonderful, but at the sametime sucks big time. For those of you who don't know this already, I'll be "moving" to California in a few weeks for a little while to do an internship for these lovely photographers: EPLove So something new and exciting coming my way. I'm very grateful that they are taking me under their wing for a little while and that I get to learn from them all things I need to get my own business running. I'm doing a happy dance everyday these days, so I'm taking it as a good sign that I'm going the right way here :P
Anywhoooooo, here's more engagement photos for you to oogle at.
Love, PaperHeart
This is my theme song for this and next week! Woop wooop ENJOY!
Hello my dear friends! I had a engagement session 2 days ago and here's a little sneek peek of it. Yup, Summer is THE BEST TIME to shoot over here...perfection!
"You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."
"Cos they came out of the sunshine Flowers nestled in their hair See they've been stumbling on the backstreets honey I won't give in, no I won't give in 'Cos my love's not a limit.."
Summer in my heart, my head, my soul, my mind, in every part of my body... Summer summer summer summer summer!!!!
Summer is inside me...
I love summer because, -it makes me feel alive -I'm constantly happy -I feel energized -there are so many heavenly scents in the air -ICE CREAM! -nature is at its best -I get to do my night walks -I dont feel cold -I get to wear dresses -birds sing more clearly and louder than before -the days are looong -there's night time only few hours and even that time is not that dark -ICE CREAM! - get to swim in the ocean -I can eat outside everyday if I want to -cabin tiiiime -partypartyparty -oh all the heavenly berries and fruits...mm.mm.mm -ICE CREAM! -every day is a good day to be wearing a bikini -pretty pretty colors!!! -BARBEQUE AND GRILL FOOOD! -watermelons -crickets singing -sun bathing -beach -sauna and swimming in a lake
"Spouse: someone who'll stand by you through all the trouble you wouldn't have had if you'd stayed single."
I just love these two...and I really REALLY hate the fact that I'm gonna miss their wedding :( I don't like it at all...but one has to choose between two weddings sometimes...not a easy decition just so you know...
Just look at them, you can see the love the share from miles away. I'm looking for a love like that...still looking...maybe it will show up soon or maybe it will come around when I'm old and gray, but I'm sure it will come eventually :)
"We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."
"What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now."
...And that is why I still went back to my past and cut my heair back the way it was...
Love,
PaperHeart
While we have oceans Rivers that still bring us life Reasons to live in the moment Hold onto your time
Let your heart go where the wind takes it Pure like the raindrops of time Follow the path where it takes you Straight down the line
Ladies and Gentlemen Surely we're here in mind Watching our spirits dance on the On the backs of our lives
How can one sit back and dream it I'd have no peace in my life Climbing these walls in an hourglass Prized in our strife
And I have seen worlds filled with wonder Lost on my own lonely mile
This is one of the photos that I took last week while I was photographing some engagement photos and for some reason it became my favourite. I don't know why, it just is. The mood, the colors, the light, the touch...it's just perfect. So that's a little sneek peek of what's to come :)
What's your definition of it? How does it make you feel? Tell me what you say that truly makes it real Kings and Queens, Philosophers have tried so hard to find Tell me what it means to you dear, nevermind
Love is kind when the world is cold Love stays strong when the fight gets old Love's a shoulder to lean on Love is you Love's like the water when the well runs dry Quench my thirst, keep me alive Just need one sip baby Love is you Love is you, love is you, Love is you, love is you
Is it possible, there is a kiss that's so divine Or am I just a fool, is it all in my mind? Is there something chemical A scientist might say Well love must be a drug To make me feel this way
Cause love's my permission to be who I am No inhibitions cause you understand Freedom to breathe oh baby Love is you Love's like a kiss when the sun goes down Holds me tight when no one's around Love's what I want to hold on to Love is you
Love is you, Love is you, Love is you, Love is you, Love is you, Love is you, Love is you,
Love is kind, it makes me stronger I don't have to look no longer You're the one I cling to Love is you When the chips are down Love will stick around I'm so glad I found Love is you
As much as I've tried to clarify Love's quite simple, he's just my guy Perfect definition Love is you Love is you, love is you Love is you... is you...
It's been a while yet again. I've been going through some new wedding photos and trying to sort them as well as some engagement photos, while at the sametime trying to sort though my own life aaaand projects I have in my head...
So I've been keeping busy once again, but that's not to say that I haven't enjoyed some quality free time laying on the grass in the sun, sleeping outside and taking it all in. SUMMER IS ALMOST HERE! and I can't seem to keep myself from smiling :D Sun has that effect on me :) I can't wait to be bale to put on some dresses and skirts (well I've already been wearing those) and go out with my legs showing hahah... Oh and guess what... I bought myself pink trousers...YES, PINK! I HATE PINK! :D hahaha I was supposed to buy myself red ones, but instead surprised myself and ended up going for the pink (well it's actually corallishpinkish) I guess the girly girly super girl girl inside of me won after all these years. I would have NEVER EVER thought that this day would come, that I'd buy something pink...well that just goes to show that life is always unpredictable and surprises you when you least expect it to :)
Anywayyyyyyys, here are some photos of my lovely little muffin! my niece, my gorgeous little niece who just melts your heart right away. I hadn't seen her in a long time and she has grown so much. She has this gorgeous reddish curly hair and a face that makes the most funniest expressions ever...and she keeps saying "titta titta!" (which is swedish and means "look look!") I 'just love that girl soooo much! (and her brother who wouldn't let me take photos of him) I miss them so much and hate the fact that I dont see them that often anymore (they moved to another city)
ooooh, and Rome was great, thaks for asking :D hahah I will post some photos from that trip as well :)
Look LOOK! who we found with my friend in the midst of our eggs...
It's Mr easter egg and he is here to say...
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Me, I'll be away for the next week, heading to Rome for a little holiday and hopefully after I return, I will have ton of photos to share with you guys! hihihihihiiii I'm sooo excited!
...it will not solve itself, it refuses to listen to reason...
..."this is a mess that you can not clear on your own..." it says "...you can not untangle a knot like this that was meant for two..." yet still I try...
...and that knot, that heavy knot at the back of my head just grows and grows. I know it's a battle I can not win, my hands are too small for something like this. There's only so much they can do on their own. It's clear to me that I need two bigger hands to solve all the mysteries and questions it has gathered in its grip. To help me one mess at a time, to clear my mind.
...There's a knot at the back of my head, it will not solve itself, it refuses to listen to reason...
I love being cheesilly in love and being in love in public places. Some people think it's annoying, I think it's cute and makes you see that the world isn't such a bad place after all. I think we should show how much we love eatch other more often. Granted there is a fine line with what is taking it too far and what is still thought as appropriate. But I would like to see it more often none the less...no wait I would love to do that more often myself, but since there's no man in my life, I'll have to do with taking pictures of other people.
I was riding the metro with these two love birds and just found them so adorable that I had to be an annoying paparazzi and take photos of their private moments.
So what did we learn from this blabing on I just did there about love once again. That we should share the L.O.V.E...just a simple holding of a hand or a small kiss on the cheek, will make this world a better place to be in...atleast that's what I think!
Love, PaperHeart
p.s. I just absolutely LOOOVE this song!
Shouldn't tell you all I got inside but I just need to let it out Let me say it if you don't mind It's only you, I think about
Whoa whoa when I see you Can't stop smiling just want to hold on tight I know that must be love no doubt That must be love no doubt
I can't sleep when all is spinnin round I need to figure out how this can be so hard for me when it shouldn't be Can't get you off my mind It's only you I think about
If you ever would be mine, I will never ever let you down If you ever would be mine If you ever would be mine, I will never ever let you down If you ever would be mine If you ever would be mine, I will never ever let you down If you ever would be mine If you ever would be mine, I will never ever let you down If you ever would be mine
I can't sleep when all is spinnin round I need to figure out how this can be so hard for me when it shouldn't be Can't get you off my mind It's only you I think about
This photo was taken around january 2010. We went sledding with my friends and as usual I had my camera with me...and this is something I took "accidentally"
I know I know, I've been posting the most random photos lately, none of them have been a project I've had in mind or anything planned..but people, I photograph a LOT and when I say alot, I really mean it. Most of those photos just pile up in my computer and never see "the daylight". So lately I've been going through my photo folders, trying to find beautiful/look worthy photos that I haven'te really noticed before or have forgotten about. Just pictures ans moments from average life. So bare with me and atleast try to enjoy them and find the same beauty that I see.
Love, PaperHeart
Haven't listened to Goldfrapp in a looong looong time. Like REALLY listened, concentraded on it, you knooooow what I mean. So I was so glad when I started to listen to goldfrapp cd's that I have and "found her" again, if you could say that...
Had a sucky camera with me on that gig, not my own baby :/, but I tried my best...
I'm still in awe of the whole concert, just AH!
Then the next day I travelled to another city with my friends and saw my brother do the "impossible" by eating the biggest meal there was, getting his name on the wall and throw up afterwards...
While the rest of us enjoyed our "small" meals...
He said, and I quote "no problem, this is a small meal, no problem, I can do it..." Yeah dude, it looks small but you didnt know what you got yourself in, did you?
The ever so fearless tigers at our table :D hahah
So yeah I've been a busy bee once again after a fun weekend of random stuff I need to concentrade on preassignments for the finnish art school yet again. I did how ever manage to get myself in to a school in England, woop woop!! I feel so releaved and yet VERY paniced! money money moneyyyyy!! is the name of the problem...School aint free over there like it is over here, PLUS I need to travel to the states as well...Me is not made out of money, no matter how much me wants it....Any ideas how I could start pooping money?
Aint it funny, that we spend our lives mostly wishing for something new, something exciting, something to change our lives, perhaps (like in my case) wish and hope to be able to move away to another country, we wish and hope and pray and when that moment actually comes, all of a sudden we see all the good things we already have that we might have to give up for that something new. You start to see all the good things there are in your country (however bland and boring it is) and start to hesitate, is this what I really want? why did I wanna change this? Don't get me wrong, I want this, I need to do this for my own mental healths sake and to be actually able to FINALLY be the person that I want to be, to have the career I've always wanted. To see how far I can go with this...but still, we all get that feeling at some point when our lives are about to change, don't we?
