OOoops...WEBSITE IS DOWN (AGAIN)

Here we go, again... my website is down.

In last October I had to update my website host package, because monthly bandwidth limits goes 2-3 times full and my website was down until 1st day of upcoming month. And when normal host include 50GB bandwidth, I had already 100GB. And from this I updated it to 200GB.

And now we are here again. My 200GB Bandwidth limit is full for the January. I can't estimate how many visitors will visit on my website every month, so now I'm gonna do bigger changes - new service from somewhere else, without bandwidth limits.

And it's mean also that MY NEW WEBSITE is coming! I already know what  kind of ones. New year, new things ;)

I'm made this photo for Weranna's, and just today I just would love to laying on it...until 1st of February.

TOUCHING THINGS ON MY MOODBOARD TABLE

They say, when you closing some doors, there opening new doors, the better ones.
That happened! Last Fall was very touchful time for me. Sad way, but same time
very great way. Here is some touching moments from the end of last year what
I'm collect to my moodpboard table.

Jaime Mota's Manos de Monja photography

HANDS PHOTO ART

In October I made a working trip to Spain. Amazing time and Tarifa was the amazing
place. I did in the same trip a visit also to see my new friends (and client) in Malaga.
Zoco Home Jan and Johanna showed me really great places and one of them was a
Photo Gallery where the owner selling her  photographer husband photos who
unfortunately passed away few years ago.

I really loved some of his amazing photos and I wanted to buy one photo art and when
I goes to pay it, this owner woman was so grateful, said me how touching this exact
photo was to her with her husband signature and she started crying. I did feel her pain
and I started crying too and I give to her a big hug. It was so emotional moment that we
all leave this gallery tears on our eyes. It was really touching moment and visit. I will
never forget it.

One visit can make miracles. Now Zoco Home started selling those Jaime Mota's
photos on their webshop.  I'm so happy for that. I'm so happy to met Johanna and Jan
and their family, thank you!

MY SURPRISE XMAS GIFT

Now on Xmas time me and my family, knew that my Mom has left only little time
before she will pass away. Doctor gives to her only 2 days and we had to start count
hours. Very sad and emotionally situation, very hard for us. A day before Xmas I got
unexpected package delivery by the courier from Love Warriors with written card for
me - they couldn't know my Mom situation, but by the card and gift they sent me
much love. I stood on my living room this card on my hand and the gift, Love
Warriors calendar 2015 on my other hand and I cried. So touchful gift and so in right
moment to my life situation. I will never forget this. I'm so so so grateful. They really

gonna collect them as collage to my wall.


SIXTYDAYS EFTY

One dearest new friend came to my life suddenly and crazy funny way. We didn't know
each others before she came to stay my place here in Amsterdam for a one weekend in
September. Short time, but we feel like we are known always each others. The same
short time and we are had so many things to share each others, touching way. She is
Efty, passionate owner and designer of Sixtydays fashion brand from Sweden. Can't
say enough thanks to her. I love her Sixtydays clothing and every single photos what
she is done with my another new friend a Photographer Patricia Dacic. Those ladies
showed me the great places around in Helsingborg when we met in Sweden. I love
Sixtydays catalogues so much that them stand on my moodboard table all the time.
Can't wait to see the new one!


TOUCHING MOMENTS

There is some more touching (things) moments, for sure. I just wish I could put
them to my moodboard table...

HELLO 2 0 1 5

HELLO NEW YEAR!

My year 2014 ended very very sad way...my Mom passed away. It's so sad and it's so wrong,
but now she don't have a pain anymore... I had a chance say beautiful goodbyes with my Mom.
Hard time, but my life must continue... I know my Mom could be only happy to see we kids
are so much ok as we can, now and after all. She will stay on our hearts, no any doubts. I
need a new beginning... I decided start make my dreams true. It will help my pain.

So in the year 2015 I'm gonna be my own dream maker and I will start just today. Not
tomorrow. Not next week. Not next month. Just today. There is a one of my big dream -
my own Styling Photo Studio - its going to happen! I'm searching right space and place
now from Amsterdam and hopefully will find it soon as possible! It's gonna be my office,
but also the place where I can make some stylings and photoshoots too. My looking place
its gonna be for sure. There is my new logo too for my styling and photography.
The first and the last pictures on this post are just playing and styling with
items which are coming to my studio.

And oops... I'm already made some changes to my own home too...
I'm so in love for these Love Warriors paper bags. Them are definitely going to be part
of my upcoming Styling Photo Studio, but they are found some great places from my
home too! Them finishing my home style indeed.

Here at my home is one my another dream too - the old (my painted) clothing rack what
I found from Twindustrial. I really needed more space for my clothes so this was a brilliant
solution, it's almost 2 meter wide! So I took my old white wooden closet off and replaced
the space with this rack. I found on my Swedish trip these brilliant Olsson Jenssen tin tiles.
When I came home with few of them, my white paint brush worked and I found place for
them from the my hall. So I ordered more these fantastic tiles from Butik Linnea's webshop.

My own home is going to be next issue of Norweigian magazine Vakre Hjem & Interior.
Some other publications too is coming out little bit later in Winter/Spring time. Nice ;)
Little bit shame that these new items not include to this magazine photos...

There is coming out very soon (next week!) few new lookbooks! Two of them for my client
By Pia's Design - linen home textiles and linen fashion. Can't really wait to share them
to you! And yes, finally my own lookbook is ready too and I will launch it in a few days ;)

After difficult times I feel 2015 is gonna be very special for me, I have better than good
vibes! I'm already so excited about all!  I'm full of plans!

Happy New Year everyone!
