Such a pretty office

Happy new week! My weekend was full of sunny goodness and I have to admit that I skipped working inside in order to spend some quality time outdoors. Hence, why my post is a day late ;-/ Nothing is worse than having to work indoors when the sun is shining. A big part of my job is post production at the computer so anytime I see an office/work space that I love, I am totally inspired to bring some of that goodness in my own workspace. A couple of years ago when I went to visit Erica Cook’s home in Calgary, the talented girl behind Moth Design, I was blown away with how pretty her office was. The colors were incredible and her little styling bits …. I swoon. For me, being surrounded by little bits of goodness and order is what inspires me to work creatively. I hope this inspires you like it did me!

Uppercase Magazine: Granville Eyeland OO

Eyeglasses Tracey Ayton Photography

I can’t tell you how excited I was to finally work with Janine Vangool from Uppercase magazine. I’ve been an avid reader of Uppercase for a few years now so when Janine asked me to do a shoot on a story about a local business, Granville Eyeland, I knew this would be a fun one. (If you haven’t already noticed, I like to photograph little details) THIS was certainly one of those shoots. I highly recommend picking up a copy of Uppercase to get your creative juices flowing and make sure to say hi to Sara whenever you get to visit Granville Eyeland on Granville Island, here in Vancouver….. These glasses are made with some serious love.

Since Uppercase’s office is located in Calgary, I could not pass up meeting the talented Ms Janine Vangool while visiting there last month. Janine’s office is full of eye candy and being a prepared photographer, I took full advantage of shooting the most adorable workplace and check out all of these awesome vignettes she’s created. This girl is all about the creative !!!!

Tom Hobbs & Brent Beattie’s condo featured in Style At Home

9 comments

I had the pleasure of getting to know Tom Hobbs over the past few years as he owns a magnificent nursery called Southlands that I visit quite frequently. Tom and his partner of 30 years, Brent Beattie own a fabulous condo over looking Van Dusen Gardens which is quite fitting the fact that Tom is a passionate gardener. Their home in the city boasts the most amazing color palette that includes subdued blues, deep purples and yummy avocado greens. Tom’s sense of humor is reflected throughout the home with whimsical collectables including …. yup, you guessed it, garden gnomes. If you haven’t already picked up a copy of the latest issue of Style At Home, I highly recommend it as there are so many ideas for outdoor living. Have a fantastic week!
