Whether it’s portraying the freshness of a contemporary space or revealing the aged splendour of a country farmhouse, I can’t get enough of the soft light and gentle beauty of Tim Beddow’s photographs. He understands the individuality of these homes. Definitely not cookie cutter. Soft shadows, bright light, rich colour and texture, beautiful rough texture. Tim captures it all.

Once upon a time I fell in love with a photo of a room, a bedroom that just spoke to me. Ngoc Minh Ngo took that shot. Ngoc is a contender for my all time fav photographer. We’ve featured her work before but it’s time for an encore. Love everything that she captures with her lens. There’s a spirit, a joy in her images. Photographer crush to the max. Not hard to see why!

As the sun slowly sets over this last chapter of The Apartment Book, by the editors of Apartment Life magazine, Meredith Corporation, 1980 we bid farewell to perms and platforms, chunky sofas and chunky food props. The 70s are slowly morphing into the 80s and if we didn’t know better we’d be predicting back in the day the final domination of the planet by house plants. Oh how I love this first picture. A market garden in old tins (including if you look closely Pepsi). I’m speechless as to why and you’d be too if you realised that out of “shot” (or scan in this case… it couldn’t all fit on the scanner bed) is a bedroom. A market garden in recycled cans bedroom. Only in the 70s!

On Saturday Jo WINKed photographer Ty Cole’s online gallery and today I’d like to showcase some of his architectural and interior photography. His photos are sharp and bright and he frames interesting elements so perfectly. (And I had to include that last photo – I am going to dream about those rough timber floors tonight…)

Can I describe photographs as clean and minimal? Refreshingly simple but cleverly composed. Spare elegant spaces captured in an instant. Messages cleverly conveyed through a lens. This room is graceful, that design is effortless, unforced and natural. All these thoughts tumble through my mind as I view photographer Mark Eden Schooley’s work. Honest and beautiful. Real and remarkable. P.S. Has green ever been so beautiful?
