(from Saule and Chris's incredible home in Frederick. Click here for the full house tour.)
It's always tricky to get just the right angle, but when I do, even ordinary scenes have a little magic to them. The photography experience has also trickled into my designs, as I've come to see mirrors not only as light enhances or beauty tools, but also as frames for beautiful living. The vignettes that they capture are important (almost like photographs themselves), and so well-placed mirrors have become one of my focuses regardless of the style of home.
I'd like to do a series devoted just to mirror shots. We'll see how far I get, but here's my start...
(the two above are from Hallie and Mark's home. Hallie is a serious decorating genius. I'll have to show more shots in the future, but you can check out the tour I did for AT here.)
(and these 2 are from Zoe Feldman's home, one of my favorite DC designers. Such a treat to photograph. I had trouble choosing one mirror shot, so I threw in both. Check out her house tour here.)
**All images are my own
Those are beautiful shots. One thing I learned in school was that when hanging a mirror, always look from all angles to see what's being reflected. If it's something ugly you need to move the mirror. Good tip right?
ReplyDeleteIt's like looking into another world isn't it? You notice so many things in mirrors that you don't notice in real life. They're simply amazing.
ReplyDeleteAwe love it as well just sent you a few pictures of reflections I shot, Glad you came out from under mommy duties to blog!!!
ReplyDeleteMirrors are such magical decor pieces I love the first shot with the reflection of the funky chandeliers into the turquoise mirror with the elaborate frame!!

ReplyDeleteBOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN
ReplyDeleteWhy American men should boycott American women
http://boycottamericanwomen.blogspot.com/
I am an American man, and I have decided to boycott American women. In a nutshell, American women are the most likely to cheat on you, to divorce you, to get fat, to steal half of your money in the divorce courts, don't know how to cook or clean, don't want to have children, etc. Therefore, what intelligent man would want to get involved with American women?
American women are generally immature, selfish, extremely arrogant and self-centered, mentally unstable, irresponsible, and highly unchaste. The behavior of most American women is utterly disgusting, to say the least.
This blog is my attempt to explain why I feel American women are inferior to foreign women (non-American women), and why American men should boycott American women, and date/marry only foreign (non-American) women.
Tens of millions of American men have had their lives completely destroyed by American women through the following crimes:
1. False rape accusations (it has been proven that up to 80 percent of rape accusations are FALSE)
2. False domestic violence (DV) charges (same as above)
3. Financial destruction of men in divorce courts through alimony and support payments (women get up to 95 percent of their ex-husband's income and savings, as well as the house, car, etc)
4. Emotional destruction of men by ex-wives who have stolen their children from them and forbidden contact
5. Divorced dads who commit suicide as a result
Not one single American woman has EVER condemned their fellow American women for committing these crimes against men. Silence means consent. Therefore, American women support and enjoy destroying men's lives and causing men to commit suicide. Apparently, American women think it is okay to be a criminal, just as long as you are a woman. Therefore, is it any surprise that a huge percent of American men no longer want anything to do with American women, other than using them for easy sex and then throwing them away?
Over 50 percent of American women are single, without a boyfriend or husband; so the fact is most American men no longer want to marry American women. Let these worthless American women grow old living alone with their 10 cats.
BOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN!
A national morning radio show talked about the Boycott American Women blog and was heard by millions of people.

ReplyDeleteLove it Leah! Mirrors are such a great way to give a space a quick new update and add light, you have inspired me (once again) to go through my house and see where I can add more mirrors, and fantastic lighting! I love the brick reflection in Zoe's home, and the painted mirror in Saule's is jut ridiculously fabulous!
