simple scout.

•  28.August.2012

A while back while I was pulling inventory for a Kinfolk shoot, I took a bit of time to snap some super simple images of my SCOUT. inventory. I love images where negative space is used intentionally, actually enhancing the beauty of an image (think Max Wanger). Some of my favorite little shops and boutiques organize their items in the simplest ways, and I love doing the same with my own scout goods – all the knives with the knives, all the enamel with the enamel, all the purple, brown & clear glass lined up next to their matching buddies. There is something extra special about creating with the simplest of things, and Joy’s remark that the stylist’s role is to “stripe it down and only leave what’s necessary” has been on the forefront of my mind this week.

beautiful post and photos, jenn! I like to handle design in the same way, in that everything should have a purpose in creating the big picture. often it’s the simplest images that communicate the most powerful message.
