Photo shoot

Because tomorrow the Beta-Plus photographer will make a photo-shoot of our home to publish in one of their next issues of the books, this afternoon I took some pictures myself to prepare the shoot of tomorrow.
Here I show you a few pictures I took of the living room.
So within a few weeks I will show you the result of the shoot or maybe you will discover it in the next Beta-Plus issue!



































This last picture is one of a still-life in the kitchen.

    Hello Greet, I commented earlier and noticed that I could not see the comment once it was supposedly finished. Don't know what happened. But, I want to tell you that your living room is gorgeous! I love all of the wood and the white together, it is done to perfection. Thanks for the look! Hugs, Cindy S.

    Hallo Greet, wat een sfeervolle woonkamer heb je, echt prachtig er straalt zoveel warmte vanaf. Ik kan me voorstellen dat ze hiervan een fotoshoot willen maken voor een woonboek.

    Greet, you have an exquisite home! Congratulations on the fantastic news :)

    Comfortable, yet refined. Chic, yet surprising. I love the fresh white with the warm colors throughout. The wall sconces are just killing me -- too beautiful. You can really see you in the home, which is so lovely. Also, now, I have a craving for some little macaroons*

  28. French-KissedNovember 3, 2009 at 8:05 PM

    I love the way you styled your home for your own photo shoot. I especially like the still-life in the kitchen...makes me want to reach in and grab one of those macarons! Hope all went well for the offical one--your own images are wonderful, but it will also be fun to see what the book shots look like. That is such an honor when a publication wants to use you very own home in its pages. Congratulations, Greet!

    You have such a warm and welcoming home, Greet. I love the white with the lovely, red rug. So inviting! :)

    Would you say that the style of this room is Belgian but with an English twist?

    Whatever you call it, I love it :)

    The Beta Plus books are my favorite! I think I have at least one copy of all of them (yes, all of them!). We sell them in the store. My clients love them. I can't wait to see your home in the next one. I'm sure you will keep us updated.

    Your home looks exquisite. I will save these images in my "Greet" file.
