This lifestyle shoot looks like how I want to spend my weekend! Roaming in the shallow waters of a gently flowing river, picnicking on the banks under the golden glow of autumn light, listening to the soothing sounds of natureééò ok I’m getting carried away but you get the picture. The stunning images by IVY & GOLD have literally transported me! And one my favourites ééò PONDEROSA & THYME ééò created a beautifully simple bouquet of autumn leaves.

Kelsee explains, ééòThis shoot was inspired by the changing of seasons. The transition from light, bright summer, to deep, rich autumn. Reading that excerpt from the poem ééòWho Are You, Little Iééò by E. E. Cummings made me see the season change in a different way than I’d seen it before. It made me take what I usually see as a time of pensiveness and melancholy ééò the change from a light season to a dark one ééò and instead see it as a time of beauty. The early, but glowing, golden autumn sunsets are almost like a comforting, warm blanket, tucking us in for the sleepy winter season. A simple, yet rich color palate with a bouquet of colored leaves was perfect for representing this lovely, transformative time of year.
