Kitchen photos
Cuckoo!
The other day I received the photos from the photographer that was here a month ago.
They wanted to use my kitchen for advertisements and in a catalogue.
Pictures were beautiful but weirdly enough I did not really recognise my kitchen.
The kitchen on those photos belonged to someone else, I thought.
They removed all "life" from this area before setting up another world ( that suited their purpose better) but by doing that I also felt they took away some of the kitchen's identity.





I love my golden colour in that vaulted ceiling but they photoshopped it so its not visible in the pictures.
I love all the signs from the kids presence like forgotten drawings on the countertop or homework piles waiting to be organised.
I love my eclectic mix of bowls on the shelves that has a lot of memories in each and every of them.
On the photos they removed everything like that and just kept colour coordinated items.
Not that I was offended in any way.
More like a feeling of being lost in my own kitchen...
I think I must have looked a little confused because the stylist said to me:
"Remember there is the picture world and there's the real world".
And my kitchen just happens to star in both of those worlds!
What a great accomplishment.
So now I'm going to have a big cup of tea under my golden ceiling in my star shining kitchen:)
