Det tok nesten eit år, men no er ALT ferdig på denne delen av kjøkkenet. (Ja, vi har jo som kjent to-i-eit-kjøkken)

Not my kitchen.
You know how they say the kitchen is the best place to eavesdrop on household gossip?
It's true...
by the way... we have a logo (finally)... check it out on our tumblr!!!

1 shot SB-600 OC blended with 2 ambient exposures- Stager spent 3 days at this house - I wasn't about to move a thing!
This kitchen has been a couple of months in the making. The kitchen unit and fridge are "Gloria" and were bright pink. Just about everything has been re-painted and a bit of re-ment added. I still have a few more things to change, let me know if you think any changes are needed! Need feedback! :)
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN - This is a vintage cabinet which we restored and re-painted in one of our fave color combos. It sold before we could really photograph it. The only solution to disappointments like this is for you to come shop here more often.
Nice white and bright kitchen, with plenty of sunshine and modest staging makes shooting a pleasure. sb80 CL and CR, sb80 on the floor behind the counter (making that errant shadow on the right cabinet), sb80 to the left of the wine cooler and sb800 on camera.

When I was small, a very, very LONG time ago, my Mum had these hanging wire baskets in our kitchen. She hung them right over the sink & I remember thinking they were the coolest concept ever. I believe I might have been about four & whilst most children my age were playing with dolls, I was contemplating how those baskets were made.
FAST FORWARD TO ADULTHOOD--->
When I moved back to the U.S., I came with two suitcases. I'd left behind not only a career, a partner & his dear children, but a beautiful place in Sydney that I'd worked years making into a home. So, here I was in NYC, starting all over again - for the tenth time in nearly as many years.
Starting from scratch is never easy, but it doesn't have to be complicated either. I think it's just human nature to make simple things complicated. Sure, it's akin to a death/rebirth & can be an extremely humbling, yet also an empowering experience. Anyone whose ever had to do so can attest to this fact.
So, on one of my first thrift store excursions - on the LES - I stumbled across...you guessed it, my Mum's 1970's vintage wire baskets! Logic will tell you they weren't actually my Mum's, but I took it as a sign anyway. After all, what good is logic in a life of illogical sequence? I'd spent months contemplating on just how I'd arrived @ this juncture in my life and when I spotted the lovingly worn baskets, suddenly everything became clear!
I was EXACTLY where I was supposed to be. And, even though I didn't have an apartment to hang them in, I purchased the baskets (.50cents). Call me nostalgic. Call me hopeful. In the time since, they've hung in the kitchen of my very first NYC apartment & now hang in my loft.
Like me, they've taken a beating. The chains broke so many times, I had to rig them with galvanised wire & loose-leaf paper rings, but they've stood the true designer's test of time. As much as I'm around & source fancy wares, new gadgets & expensive products, one might think these cheap baskets would pale, in comparison. Instead, they remain one of my most favourite utilitarian kitchen items (they hold a lot of heavy stuff).
To me, they're more than Chinatown baskets, for they remind me of a more simple time and place. More importantly, they serve as a reminder that good design is simple & pure & that it doesn't have to be fancy & expensive to be good. It's like Dwell magazine's fruit bowl manifesto, in visual representation, except in triplicate & in hangable form.
Thanks Mum, for constantly helping me to remember the KISS theory - each and every time I re-enter my space after a harried day in a very complicated place. Happy 2008!

The kitchen in the basement of the Castle at Isle Marie. I adore Dorothea's sense of traditional style.
This kitchen had great "bones!" The space was there, it just needed some rearranging. Moving a doorway from the left to the right side of the wall made all the difference. The stove was relocated to an outside wall and to maximize the use of space a microwave/hood was used for ventilation. The sink remained centered to the windows and a dishwasher could now be incorporated into the design. The kitchen gained nine feet of un-interrupted counter top space and the use of a utility cabinet next to the refrigerator not only provided a tremendous amount of storage but offered a custom built-in look. A pass-through was created above the long countertop to provide a decorative and functional element to the room. The floor was tiled and the walls were textured and painted. The creative use of paint, an arched pattern, in the "nook" gave the space an open feel.
A kitchen shot I took last month for a home I shot. Realtor wanted another image for portfolio. Used HDR (3 exposures) using Photmatix and final processing in LR2.

These scales aren't as old as they look - it was just an imitation of old kitchen scales when we bought them. However, they are about 16 years old so they're getting there! We don't use them, they just sit on our kitchen windowsill looking decorative.
