You know that light that comes toward the end of a summer day? Between afternoon and evening, when the sun is no longer glaring, but it’s not quite dusk yet either? Siesta time, maybe. Anyway, that’s the light that I was thinking of when I created today’s inspiration board. Soft and warm, and apricot sweet!

Mood: summer light and sweet
Palette: apricot jam, strawberry blonde, late summer green

    The apricot shortbread look divine! Would be fabulous with a cup of tea.

    That time of day is my very favorite, it makes me feel warm inside and makes me want to smile just because! I love the whole board and never thought I would be a peach girl, but after seeing it used in such a lovely way, there's no denying it! LOVE IT!!

    Ohhh I love this board. It could even transition into early fall by adding maybe an eggplant shade! Lovely.

    Oh, divine yumminess!Yes, the "Golden hour" that photographers such as myself like to sigh about every day. Beautiful! If I didn't already have my colors picked for my wedding, this definitely would have persuaded me.

    you always do such an amazing job and i have been following your site for awhile now! I just wanted to throw this out there for whatever it's worth: i think i miss the more wedding-focused images. I think you have a fabulous eye no matter what the images, but it was always so fun to see wedding-specific ideas. Just one girl's opinion! Thank you for all your hard work and fantastic boards!
