Today I had a fashion shoot with stylist Ingvild Eiring, who is so talented and sweet!
Had models from Pholk model agency: Frida and Oda, they were a joy to work with:)

It went really well and I love the pictures!! Cant wait to see them published!

So this has been an incredible fun week, now I need some sleep:)

Good night!

Im biting my nails for tomorrow...First I just didn't think anything about it, and now I got this mail confirming something's up...Jesus...and now I can't sleep..I will either have some cool news by tomorrow night or..well, not, heeee!

Today's fashion shoot

Today I shot a fashion-story in a (very cold) attic, very much fun:)

Will show pictures from it at a later point!

Regent park in the summer, miss it!!!

I went back to my hometown Horten this weekend for a birthday party, and I sat on the train 2 more hours than normal because of SNOW..
I wish for the spring to come now.

This is such a great cover! Thank you Anja for introducing this song to me yesterday!;)

tired of winter..

Making a blanket, it takes for ever..just like this cold winter here in Norway..I have for the last 4 years been living in the UK, so it's kind of shock to re-discover the Nordic winter again...

Test shooting

Test shooting for upcomming fashion-spec, which is going to take place at the cabin.

◆mini winter holiday◆

I haven't done this in years!!

Egg and bacon is obligatory breakfast on a cottage holiday:)


My man by the fire♥

Felt so sorry for this little creature...

Bon voyage!

Got my photograph (for the Brygger Jacobsens portrait price competition) printed, mounted and safely packed from Fotophono today, and I was very pleased by how it turned out:) They put on a half- gloss coating and it looked very nice, gave it that little extra and it protects the print.
So now im posting it to Denmark, bon voyage!

Going up to our cabin for a couple of days with Thomas now, so see you Sunday!:)
Have a great weekend!!

Dress from Ruth66♥

Me today; dress from my favorite store in Oslo: www.ruth66.no
The bag ( £1) is from the super-duper-great marked in Maidstone (Uk) I miss it sooo much!!!
Homemade necklace.

mornings!

I have been working 3 nights in a row (I have a part time job at a psychiatric ward). So im pretty tired now, I don't think its healthy to work to many night shifts..it messes with your head to stay up all night and sleep during the day..

Tagged!

I was tagged by my friend Maria (http://facesintheclouds.blogspot.com) to show my desk, so here it is: my home-office-desk:)
