WOOL STORY IN ST- ANDREWS - canada

©samirabuchi 2012

While staying for few days in St-Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada, I had the chance to meet and work with Michelle Ross. She and her husband own the Cottage Craft. All items are handmade. I liked the wool they sell and specially the range of colors they offer. I picked and shot the items I liked most, but there are so much more. The turquoise coat that my friend Mireille would die for, the children's cardigans, the striped socks, the men's scarves, etc... I suggest you buy the wool you like and just let yourself be creative!

I wish Michelle, her husband and their two boys a very successfull summer season in St-Andrews.

A SWISS HOME DECORATOR - switzerland

©samirabuchi 2012

I spent the day shooting with Marina Cardis. Marina is a swiss home decorator. She works with flowers and mixes them with props that she finds in India, Cambodia, Switzerland...

She never stops creating new sets and especially for hotels that she imagines in the middle of nowhere. These hotels are built for one or two nights. We call them, ephemeral.

Marina doesn't have any website yet, but stay tuned, she will create one soon.
