Butterfly kisses
This is the most beautiful picture I've ever seen in a long time. The focus and colors are so amazing I am in love :)

Isn't it funny how life can be getting you down one minute and the next thing you know life throws you a whopper of something amazing?

Just when I was going around moping about how I need models, today I was contacted by a model in Denmark who's going to be taking art classes at the same art school as me this summer in San Francisco (small world, isn't it?) and she wants to do a photoshoot with me! As soon as I looked at her portfolio, I recognized her from a picture I blogged about in my early blogging days (this picture). I tell you, sometimes our world is an English village!

I am lksdlfkasjklfsa so excited I can't even explain. Good coincidences are fun, aren't they? Have you had any fun coincidences lately?

How fantastic for you (on finding the model)!
That picture is gorgeous, and so in line with your wonderful personal taste and the coloring and softness of your blog.

Ohh, well I had the best coincidence ever since I bumped into your LOVELY blog. :) I've added you on bloglovin' right away and I love everything you post. That model is beautiful, I'm sure you'll make wonderful photographs.
Talking about photography.. I'm adore this picture! By the way: I really like San Francisco, how does it feel to feel there?
lots of love

Ohh, gosh. Sorry for all the spellos. I'm in a bit of a hurry (I really should be learning French right now, exam. tomorrow.)
but let me correct my previous comment:
'I'm adore' should be 'I adore'
and 'how does it feel to feel there?' (What is wrong with me?!) should be 'how does it feel to live there?'
Sorry for bothering you. ;)

@Daphne: Oh no, not bothering me at all! When I read the first comment, I actually read it as 'how does it feel to live there', not how it was written! Funny how the eye corrects what is wrong. Anyway, I'm not originally from San Francisco (I'm from Connecticut) but it's a great city. It's fairly small and has lots of neighborhood that each have their distinctive vibes. The buildings are beautiful too. The only thing is it's almost always cold and windy!
