I love this shoot found over at Coco+Kelly.  Perfect inspiration for a spooktacular Halloween weekend!

Spice Market




The Antibes market had an incredible spice and grain vendor filled with colorful ingredients.  Can you believe this guy has to set this up every morning and take it down every afternoon?

Graphics Preview

We're working on rebranding Fig Studio.  What do you think of the new blog header?  Eventually this will all roll into the new Fig Studio identity, so we'd love your feedback on the graphics and colors we've created.  Thanks!

Principality of Monaco

We took a day trip from Antibes to Monaco, a place I've wanted to see almost my whole life (thanks to my mom's fascination with Grace Kelly).  Unless you're a high roller, there's little to do than spend the day admiring the ocean view and wonder who parked their Rolls in front of the local McDonalds. 



Beautiful arch greeting us at the Monaco train station



Harbor full of yachts.  I love how they're parked in order of size (or rank, as the case may be!)



View towards the casino, an exquisite structure.

Beautiful Snack

As you know, one of the best parts of traveling the globe is eating your way through new regions and discovering new flavors.  Though cheese (brie in particular) is not new to us, somehow it tastes magical when you're sitting next to a bustling old town square and drinking wine from a nearby village.
