A special Mother's Day gift idea born out of 'lockdown' by Basia Puchalski

A SPECIAL MOTHER'S DAY GIFT IDEA BORN OUT OF 'LOCKDOWN'- my photographer husband Issey Isamu Sawa Photography & I are offering something special & exclusive for those looking for a unique gift for this upcoming Mother's Day - a 'time-stamp' gift idea crafted from our very own home during COVID-19...

The 'gift pack' will include a beautiful floral bouquet (florist's choice) by Basia Puchalski Floral Design created from locally sourced & grown florals packaged together with a Limited Edition Floral Art greeting card.

The flowers featured on the greeting cards are those that our 5-year-old daughter Hannah had foraged during our neighbourhood walks in Richmond & photographed in the confines of our own home.

To keep her entertained during these times, we decided to do something 'crafty' with her precious finds. We pressed the flowers using a 'Miniature Flower Press Kit'.

As a photographer, Issey has often been a 'control freak' especially when it comes to lighting in the controlled environment of the studio. But many aspects of our lives are out of our control right now. So he embraced a different approach. Experimenting outside his usual comfort zone; letting nature dictate the time of day and which area of the house I could shoot - using only available natural light.

We thought it would be a novel idea (as a family trio) to offer these as Limited Edition greeting cards for this upcoming Mother's Day.
