two: cindy & weiqi



















that day when i borrowed a leica m6 and shot a couple rolls of film and documented the ballerinas doing some personal rehearsals and warm ups on stage before the performance.
shot on film



my wish would be to keep my life simple & beautiful. filled to the brim with the things that really matter in life. to camp at the beach with my family, to make meals, to have time for hugs and snuggles or to just have the time to make something old look new…







Aniya had a new little baby sister Arethea! So we met up with the family to snap some precious memories of the girls and some family shots too (up soon!). A little over a month old, Arethea was pretty much asleep throughout the shoot on a soft cotton blanket in the balmy breeze enjoying some snooze. It’s so cute how comfortable she was sleeping in the open on a random patch of grass like it was her own bed haha.
We explored the place, ran around the cobbled stones and Aniya did a little jiggle and suddenly burst out into dance and song complete with the “dip” haha (check out the 5th picture, right). Man I had a blast with this family ;) More to come!
Have a rubber ducky day everyone :D Find a little joy and have a little laugh! well at least make it a minimum requirement ;) #rubberduckyday #nicolethenstudio #film
ashley is someone I truly admire, a girl who went through a tough situation but fights through it with purposeful tenacity. her continual gratefulness and awareness of the love she receives from others is like this glow, hard to describe…but a natural SKII haha. what she receives, she freely gives in smiles and hugs and loves. her smile is like a switch to summer holidays! and photographing her made me feel like I was truly on a summer vacation doing what i love just for the fun of it :)
thank you Ashley for allowing me to photograph your beauty and for sharing with me some of your sunshine! i felt like i went home with a jar of glowing rays ;)
