It’s perfect weather for that comfy baggy sweater you love or your favourite light leather jacket. It’s also that time of year where you get to wear your many scarves – the ones that have been sitting in your closet for the last eight months – and those boots you just bought. Mmm, new boots smell!
Ever since I was little I would rake up all the leaves in my yard, whilst wearing fall boots and cozy scarves, creating the biggest pile I could, just to jump into it. I loved collecting the most beautiful and perfect leaves. Then, I would bring them home and iron wax them to keep as decorations.
From collected branches to snail shells, today’s Photo Friday showcases what we’d notice if we took some time to see the beauty around us during this lovely season of fall.
Whatever your plans are for Halloween tonight and this weekend, take a moment to appreciate the beautiful little things around you.
Hello everyone. My name is Meaghan DeClerq and I am a freelance photographer. When I held my first camera I had an epiphany – I knew that photography would become a larger part of my life.
I graduated in 2013 from the Media Studies program, emphasizing in Image Arts, at the University of Guelph-Humber. Although I am not as talented as the other contributors when it comes to writing, I hope I can showcase my love of photography.
Those who know me know how much I adore food photography. No matter what food is on the table, I have to photograph it. It is important to note that when I say photograph, I mean moving plates around until I got the right lighting – leading to many cold dinners and angry family members.
Outside of my passion for food, I enjoy many styles of photography, particularly portraiture and commercial. Regardless of the style, what I love most is the creative freedom. Whether it’s being your own food stylist, picking a wardrobe or location, photography lets your work shine. I hope you view my work as what it is meant to be – creative freedom. Allowing the colours and textures to take you somewhere special and different from everyday imagery.
