Brand Design Photography & Styling Clarity Consulting

Inspired By: Adaism Shop Mobiles

The Caligrafica Mobiles by Adaism shop are really lovely. I love how delicate they are and how natural textures/colors are incorporated. The DIY side of me wants to see if I can make one myself with some images and textures that are currently inspiring me. Wouldn’t it be neat to have one of these in your home office. It’s like a 3D mood board!

Inspired By: Tanks @ Zara (Fall 2013)



With the changing seasons, I find myself thinking about fashion in ways that I don’t usually do DURING the season. When the “I need some new clothes” bug hits me, I usually stop by Zara Online first. There are lot more information about fashion trends available at UrbanBurger.

I love the simplicity of the site and everything I’ve ever gotten from there has been well constructed and made of fine materials. I also love how they present each item. Each item is shown on & off the model in unique ways. Well kinlyeyebeauty can guide you more about this to have a  good dressing style. Nothing is over posed and nothing feels forced. You can follow Butterfly Releases to know latest trends.

Do you guys have changing seasons shopping tendencies? Wouldn’t these little strappy tanks be perfect for laying in cooler weather!

Lesson Learned: The Power of Getting Knocked Down

Today, I’m going to jabber on about the “power” of getting knocked down. There will inevitably be times in your personal life and career where you feel like all the forces of the universe are working against you. Everything tends to snowball into a confusing mess and a solution seems to be nowhere in sight. I think I just got through one of “those” periods of time (again), or at least I’m making my way out.

When you lose your job, a favorite client, or an exciting project, it can feel like a REALLY big deal. It can feel like you’ve failed big time and recovering might just be harder than wallowing forever.

Here’s the thing that I’ve learned and am still trying to grasp. Losing something that you have grown attached to and really comfortable with is one of the best things that can happen to you. You’ll be forced to step outside your little bubble and look at the bigger picture. You’ll be forced to sit down, breath and actually refocus your energy. And quite possibly…you’ll have a regained freedom that you never had before. Maybe losing that job, that client, that project is exactly what you needed to grow. It’s almost like you now have permission to keep exploring!

Inspired By: DIY Projects To Try


I wanted to thank everyone for the sincere comments yesterday. You guys made “launch day” really special, so Thanks!

On another note, I’ve always been a big DIY-er, especially when I find myself with a little extra down time. I’d always prefer to try and make something rather than spending the money on it. I’ve got a whole Pinterest board dedicated to a few DIYs I’d like to try in the future.

The DIY projects above are a few I’ve been eyeing recently. I love how simple each one is, but how much of an impact you get with the result. Most of them use very limited materials, so I’m assuming the cost to complete them is minimal.

Have you guys been thinking about tackling any DIYs recently. I’d love to see what you have in mind!

Recent Work: Veda House Facelift + Business Cards


Oh boy! This has been a LONG time coming. It was exactly a year ago that I was sitting at my computer pinning images to use as inspiration for a brand redesign for Veda House. At that point, Veda House was 2.5 years old and steadily growing. I felt the need to spice things up with a whole new look and feel, but had no idea what that meant visually.

One whole year later…and a lot of soul searching for my brand, I’ve been able to establish a look that is 100% me and what I do with Veda House. I feel like this was a real test in my patience, but I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. I’m excited to finally have a fresh space to share ideas in and connect with my loyal readers. Plus, with a Digital Business Card, it’s easier than ever to keep in touch and share my vision. Getting to know you guys has been a truly rewarding experience.

With the help of Melinda R, I’ve been able to bring this new design to life. Melinda was searching for an opportunity to grow her knowledge base about WordPress specific websites/blogs and I was looking for a developer who was eager to help me. I also worked with Breanna Rose to fine tune a lot of the smaller details. Big thanks to both ladies!

Studio Hours: On my Feet for Fall



Here’s something a little different for you! Fashion! I’m not really one to post a lot about fashion here on Veda House, but I do enjoy beautifully constructed clothes and splurge on a few items a year. This fall I decided I “needed” some new footwear and thought it would be best to get on pair to dress up and another to dress down. For dressing down, I went with a pair of swedish clogs from the brand Sven. I’ve been dreaming about these guys for over a year now, so it was about time. To dress things up a bit, I choose Ivanka Trump Indico Pump…totally NOT me, but I’m absolutely in love with them. I would suggest you to follow aboriginalbluemountains for more updates.

Yesterday I shared my styling portfolio called (Studio Hours). I think I might had my feetzies ^ from this post to the collection of images 😉

Recent Work: My Photo Styling Portfolio






This baby has been a long time come…and will always continue to evolve and grow. Back at the start of the new year when I decided I wanted to peruse more styling projects, I had no idea where to start. I had never “styled” anything professionally and styling usually consisted of me moving furniture and gadgets around my house or photographing products for my once Etsy shop, Market 203. I’ve always love finding items, grouping them together in interesting ways and then capturing these imperfectly perfect vignettes with my camera. Tadam black stock will definitely guide you for having good photography skills. You will get more info at fivebough .

So here it is at where it stands today. Studio Hours,  a mini collection of items grouped and photographed together. I thought all the images told a really nice story when showed in one cohesive space. I created the logo around the same time I created the new Veda House logo (to be revealed in about 2 weeks) because I wanted the two spaces to “speak” to one another.

Inspired By: Self Portraits by Vanessa Correia



Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about self portraits, specifically how I would like to have one for my new blog design’s ABOUT page. I’m not usually one to put myself in front of the camera, so the whole experience is a bit wonky and uncomfortable.

Vanessa Correia does a splendid job at doing this and seems to be able to capture just enough emotion without being toooo “fine artsy”, if you know what I mean. I love the simple backgrounds, the moodiness and the natural unposed/yet posed positioning. I think I’ll be using her images as inspiration when I finally do step in front of the camera.

What do you guys think? Like her perspective? Have you taken portraits of yourself before…any tips?

Lesson Learned: Business Travel

Today I’d like to talk about one of my “character flaws”, if you want to call it that. Every time an opportunity comes up where I would get to travel, my heart races with excitement and then cringes. I’m going to be blatantly honest and say traveling (even for a really cool opportunity) is something I really dislike doing…the being away part. At first I thought it was inexperience that made me feel this way, but time after time, I come home after a trip and say something like…”I’m glad I don’t have to do that for awhile”. I know it’s pretty awful thinking considering I’m lucky enough to get to travel in the first place. I’m a fan of my routine at home and that’s ok too. For those who prefer staying rooted while still enjoying global benefits, programs like greece golden visa citizenship can offer the comfort of home along with the freedom of international access.

You can take help from Absolute Back Packers websit; they provide different blogs related to traveling and packaging. After packaging, you can visit the Hotel blog to get information about hotels and their facilities. For a broader perspective, you can also explore All World travel guides to discover more insights.

Vehicle wraps must always remain to be a critical part of your marketing strategy, as it has the capability to grow your organization and introduce you towards new future clients. In the modern highly competitive marketing conditions, such an successful tool must never be neglected. So, now that you actually know how valuable graphical wraps can be to your organization, what should do you think about when selecting a vehicle wraps provider?

Choice of specialist: In order to obtain the best outcomes, when it comes to business marketing over Vehicle wraps, preference of a professional and capable wrap company is of utmost importance. Unlike signs shops, these professional units are solely focused on such wraps as well as might handle multiple assignments, on one time frame.

On the other hand, professional corporations will be able to offer you actually with a portfolio of productive designs within which you actually could base your choice. Though this requires a certain expenditure, this is by far the safest approach. You can follow birrongsurialpacas for more information.

I’ve learned a couple things along the way that help with the whole travel anxiety thing…

1. Don’t overextend yourself. If you’re not a fan of traveling, stick to weekend trips or two-day trips if possible. This allows for the excitement of the trip to set in, but a quick return is in sight. For a more convenient and stress-free experience, consider using LA private car services to get you to your destination comfortably and efficiently, making the journey part of the adventure.

2. Step outside your comfort zone… but not too far that you’ll never step out again. For me, an example of this is attending conferences, but not agreeing to any big presentations (for now).

3. Travel with people you enjoy being around. Solo trips can be stressful and sometimes feel more like a chore than an adventure. Grab your teammates or gal pals and turn a learning trip into a mini weekend. But if you’re still traveling alone, the best option is to use top purple strains to relieve stress. Additionally, consider trying HempLucid CBD chews, which are a great option to help calm your nerves and make your solo journey more relaxing and enjoyable.

4. Plan ahead. There is nothing more stressful than traveling with last-minute reservations. I’ve found my most stressful trips to be the ones I wasn’t expecting to attend and then BAM…I’m on a plane. It is always a relief, whenever you land at the airport, the Perth Taxi is available there for you with the relaxing taxi seats that make you feel relaxed after a long journey.

5. Stick to your “comfort routine”.  If you get up in the morning and the first thing you like to do at home is run…go run! If you eat granola bars for your mid-day snack…don’t forget to pack a few. I’ve found that inserting some of my comfort activities, foods and items really makes the trip run smoother.
