Some time ago during a Christmas season I’ve started asking myself about the meaning of Family. I re-analyse all the family examples I know and all the information I’ve collected. From past to present, painting out to myself a detailed picture of the best family description I can give. I’m amazed how somewhere along the way family relationships can drift away from love and carrying. And yet how strongly connected to our truth we still remain.

There is a saying in Bulgaria - “The blood doesn’t become water”, which stands for the importance and connection between family members. In spiritual world is known that souls come to Earth in groups, in which their title changes, but the group remains together in every life. Which means our family is our “soul tribe” and we’ll also be together in the next life. So the issues we have with a family member is something that came from the past and if not sorted out, will continue to come back until it’s resolved. Or better - forgiven! A burden let go into the nothingness, causes the weightless feeling of love. What a relieve! And yet, how stubborn we could remain, letting the ego runs the show?

What a game life is!

This Christmas I had more time for myself than usual. Caught in thoughts I created my kind of festive season 2019. Lights down low, favourite tracks on. Let’s go…

I hope you’re having a wonderful time wherever you are this year, hope you’re joyful and merry! I hope you received the presents you most looked forward to and that you gifted yourself something meaningful too. If this wasn’t the best Christmas for you, don’t forget “this will too shall pass”.

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Decade Everyone!

The biggest pleasure for me is working with talents. A collaboration between energies for the co-creation of something beautiful, meaningful and honest is something I always look for a a creative.

This is Polina Antonova - an incredible voice, musician and woman. She is based in Varna, Bulgaria, but her voice will take you around the glove in an elegant effortlessness. The tenderness of her soul vibrates bright and clear through her personal work, and her exclusive weekly Spotify playlist just wrap everything up in a bundle of flavour.

We shot on location in a warm summer night. The green wall behind her is 100% real - one of my favourite locations in the city, which I always keep in my sleeve as an option. I wanted to compliment her outfit with a high contrast background. Something vivid and majestic but at the same time natural and organic.

On the way to our location I saw a great, old door that caught my attention. I had to take a few frames to experiment with the look of the shoot. Turned out to be another great contrast complimenting the vision.

More about Polina you could find on her Facebook page or simply follow her on Instagram @p.juniee.

Make sure you have a listen to her music on Soundcloud

And to finish the experience - tune in every week to her Spotify playlist Vibe With Me and let it takes you away…

Many thanks to my assistant Rosie from Ro Pro Studio, with who I often work on locations and without whom this would have become a very different type of photoshoot.
