One of my favorite design elements in the new space is the ability to showcase my vintage camera collection.  I love collecting old cameras, it makes me appreciate how far photography has come.  From the film age to the digital age and all of the advancements in-between.  My collection started a few years ago with a brownie (the middle camera) and then I found an old Yashica Mat 124-G, which is a twin lens reflect camera(camera on the left).  I actually used this camera at one of the first weddings I had ever photographed back in high-school for a family friend.  My collections has expanded to 15 – 20 cameras and I am always on the look out for another one.

I often wonder what did the previous owner use the camera for.  Did they photograph their family vacations? Maybe they photographed weddings like me.  I wish I could sit down with them and look through their albums and listen to the stories that go along with photos.  I can’t help but think that in the future someone might say the same thing, when they find one of my digital cameras at an antique store.

Over the past few months I have been struggling over the exact “style” I wanted to incorporate into the new meeting/gallery space.  Rather than fight it, I decided to embrace all of the styles I love.  From mixing loud floral prints with a zebra printed rug with a deep purple leather couch.

I also went through some old boxes and found  vintage treasures of my grandparents.  From an old yellow velvet chair, a typewriter, and white hobnail vases.

I can’t wait to take the vases to my florist and see how she incorporates them into the floral design for the room.
