1st Option in London...

I LOVE drinking cappuccino from my Tassimo machine while reading blogs....it's one of my favorite things to do! Today, while sipping on my cappuccino, I came across 1st Option on Decor8 and remembered it's been awhile since I featured their fantastic locations!  For those of you scratching your heads wondering who 1st Option is, they are a full service agency based out of London that scouts out locations for films, television, photographers etc. 


It's obvious 1st Option knows how to represent their locations by providing high-quality images on their website for one to look at. Below are some of the ones I've selected (that I love) from the dozens they have listed, enjoy!

Photographer, Melanie Acevedo...

Melanie Acevedo is on my top list for interior photographers. She's shot some of my favorite Domino covers, along with Jcrew's Jenna Lyon's home! What an eye....I look forward to seeing more a lot more of her work & perhaps a book?? Come on Melanie....why not?

Yvonne Wong: My Wedding Photographer....

I'm so happy to introduce my wedding photographer, Yvonne Wong to all of you! After searching high & low, this talented lady will now be shooting away at my wedding. Even though it will be a small/intimate reception, I'm sure she'll capture some magical moments of my fiance' & I. She'll be flying in from Seattle in January & we can't wait to meet her! Take a look at more of her work here, she's available for any upcoming weddings & events.....& she's amazingly sweet. I'm so grateful, thank you Yvonne!

Lauren Nicole Love.....

I love this simple watercolor by Lauren Nicole Love, who is also a talented photographer. You can see more of her work here. These go for $20, please visit her shop here.

Martin Dyrlov

I love coming across Interior photographers like Martin Dyrlov from Denmark. His portfolio is fantastic with lots of bright natural light throughout most of his work! This is a man who obviously knows his way around the camera lens. Take a peek at the site here.

Todd Selby...

Just like many of you, I've also visited 'The Selby' and admire Todd's work. If I wasn't from New York City, I'd probably think many of the homes featured, were just plain WEIRD. But, since I lived in NYC for so many years, many of the homes featured look very similar to friend's places I used to frequent. So, here are some of my favorite photos by Todd Selby. Enjoy!
