Between me and my husband, we must have over a dozen cameras—holgas, point-and-shoot digitals, film SLR’s, vintage Brownies. So needless to say, I have a thing for cameras…
This makes me ask…what will our child’s first camera be? Found via Black Eiffel.
A totebag on your shoulder, flats on your feet, a floral sundress on your back and a camera around your neck. You’re a fashionista photog — so why cramp your style with the strap that just came in the box? And it has a great little pocket, perfect for film or memory cards. Available for sale at Photojojo.

This installation took more work than it may seem. Check out what went into it at A Time for Everything.
I love Modern Pop’s An Alphabetic Ode to Helvetica.
Want wall decals? Go to Blik.
Ida Pearle is my go-to for baby gifts. I love her name prints and her alphabet cards that you can string up and hang on the wall.
Check out these gorgeous letter prints by Jessica Hische. I would be so psyched if my name started with a Q. Found via Grain Edit.
I’ve come across this common thread in photographs lately, and, well, I just like them.
I’m not sure I could stand to live among walls like this, but I’m impressed that someone can. Found via Design Mom.
Yes, this is what you think it is: “By gum, it’s gum!” (Violet from Willy Wonka reference). Yes, this is pretty gross, and yet it’s rather beautiful too. Found via FFFound.
This restaurant has 600 butterfly portraits on display. It’s almost like wallpaper. Amazing. Found via You Are My Fave.
