VILLA BETULA

the dark hues of maren ingeborg gråblomst

VIDEO TIME!

05/11/2017

Turn on the sound and make it a full screen – here it is, my first film! Well, it’s not totally correct since I’ve been working on some short films earlier (filmensuthus.no), but I’ve never been behind the camera filming! And what a pleasure it was… Filming someone who’s followed her heart, making amazing organic sweets based on her Russian roots. I think I pulled of keeping my «photo signature» in the film as well, which felt important to me. Crisp, moody and tempting, and only working with natural light. I’ve practiced ‘chasing the light’ for almost two years, when I picked up a camera for the first time. Now I start to feel comfortable behind the camera, and it feels good.

There will be more films to come, even much shorter ones, made only for this blog and Instagram. Hopefully there will be more films like this one too, since I want to offer to work with you – people who got their own brand or project, are in the developing of something exciting to come, if you have a farm, a shop, a product, an idea… The sky is the limit! Also, since we have a recording studio, and my husband is a musician (and much better composer than I am), we also have a special touch to the films – we (read: he) always makes the film music! For our own projects, for projects like this film and for other projects to come. We also have a very special film music collaboration right now, which I will definitely share with you as soon as it’s out in the beginning of the week.
When I worked with Zhar Sjokolade (Zhar Chocolate) I came to her location, a little shop here on the countryside (she als has a webshop). But except from coming to a location, I will offer for future projects to use my own house as a location, or even our property outside Prague. That place must be one of the most stunning backdrops for short films and photos, and has endless opportunities! I can both work with you or for you by getting your products or ideas to work with by myself… Did I mention the sky is the limit?

      WOW! What a comment, thanks Aleksandra <3 I've learned a lot the last week, and it was really exciting and lots of fun on Monday while filming. And then I could not keep my hands off it for even a day, so I finished it before I even thought I would start 😉 Let's do more like this!

    Hello,
    I saw on Pinterest or Instagram that everything is for sale. Is that true?! I love the vintage stand up lamp that you have with the dusty pink and gold shades (4). Are you selling it?
    I love looking at Villa Betula. You have exquisite taste!

ABOUT ME

I do and share things by heart. I create personal texts, am a musician, sell original art and prints, make a special home and capture the magic with my camera – everything rather dark hued. Villa Betula is not just skimming the tops.

And by the way - my name is Maren Ingeborg Gråblomst and I’m Norwegian. Gråblomst means grey flower.
