I was looking through some old photos and found these that I took while preparing images for my book. They were taken about this time last year, on a late-afternoon walk down at Lyall Bay beach. The project I was photographing was the 'winter coat' pattern (pg 112) which is a very simple design for a lined, hooded jacket that fastens with two toggles slightly to the side of the front. I used a thick grey corduroy for the outer and this lining print for Arlo's coat and some tweedy wool with cotton lawn lining for Keira's. These photos weren't used in the final book but I like them anyway, and their misty wild feel which I think captures a South coast Wellington beach nicely.
