After a decade of travelling the world, earning global acclaim as one of Denmark’s leading photographers, Camilla Jørvad found herself facing debilitating physical and mental burnout. She turned to her garden on the family farm on the Danish island of Ærø for solace. Her garden taught her invaluable lessons about herself and the importance of learning to bend, not break. Today, Camilla’s garden is her muse. It nourishes both physically and emotionally, provides sustenance and important life lessons about control and compromise and connects Camilla to her purpose.

In 2020, just before the world shut down, American artist Wayne Pate and his wife, fashion designer Rebecca Taylor, saw an opportunity to take a much-needed pause and change of perspective and moved to New Zealand to be closer to family. Together, they’ve found a way to slow down and savour life, raising their young family away from the bustle of a big city. Collaborators in life as well as creativity, Rebecca recently launched a small clothing label, A’COURT, as an antidote to the voracious traditional fashion model.
