J.K.L Stories

One step at a time, we are closer to accomplishing our goal: creating a brand that is qualitative and enjoyed both by kids and mommies.

Can’t believe this is already our House of Pumpkin second photoshoot. We’re growing bigger and bigger and we’re so excited for you and your kids to try our gorgeous garments.

If everything goes accordingly to our plan, which I’m sure it will, we’ll be ready to launch our website by January 2020. It’s going to be charming, aesthetic and all of the products’ picture will be true to reality. We are so looking forward to this next chapter!

You know those online mommy groups? I am a member of one! I met marvelous people through it and made incredible friends. Jamie, one of my amazing mommy friends, had recently moved to Australia, so we thought it was the perfect opportunity to visit her. She was sweet and kind enough to let us stay at her place while we were in Sydney. Our kids had a blast together! Of course, us mommies enjoyed our glasses of wine at night, just thinking how lucky and fortunate we are to be having these amazing kids.

I think that by now, you may have already gotten the idea that we simply love photoshoots! For this one, we had our photoshoot at Mrs. Maquarie’s chair with one of our brand’s representatives in Australia. Even though the location was stunning, the photographer wasn’t at his best performance. Unfortunately, the photos turned out rather disappointing.

After we left Sydney, we drove to the Blue Mountains which are part of the UNESCO world’s heritage. We stayed there for a day before heading to the Canberra Snow Resort. Jake took his ski lessons there and his natural talent shone through! Even though I was so close to almost breaking every single bone in my body, the mother and son time we spent there was precious!

This 14-days trip was awesome and I really wish we can relive it all over again!

17th December - 20th December 2018

As my work travels were so frequent, the time I spent with my son, Jake, became shorter. Wanting more quality moments with him, I decided to plan the most wonderful mother and son trip.

For our vacation, I chose Phuket, Thailand. Even though there are a ton of destinations to choose from, this one appealed the most to me. The crystal clear water, velvety sands and the luxuriant flora were big bonus points for this location.

We stayed at COMO Point Yamu. This is a superb location, overlooking the Andaman Sea. Our vacatin there was marvelous and so relaxing. We enjoyed our time by the pool and soaked up the sun. Jake took his first jet ski session right at their beach club! Alas, he wasn’t too fond of it and I doubt he will try it again anytime soon.

The peak of our trip was for sure the photoshoot at the beach. This was our second photoshoot overseas and we had a blast! Everything went perfect and it captured the precious moments that we spent together.

I definitely suggest you try this for yourself and your child. It will fill you up with good energy and revitalize your entire mood!

House of Pumpkin’s First Photoshoot

Having the help of family and friends is everything! This is the House of Pumpkin first photoshoot! Here we are, taking big steps towards our dream. At the  want only the best experiences for our clients. This being said, our designs are fabulous! We focus on creating amazing products that we will eventually share with all of the mommies out there.

We can’t wait to present you the photos we took, so that you’ll make an impression of how much passion went into developing our brand and into the children’s clothing line.

I’ve been travelling to Sidney for more than I can count, whether it was for work, studies or just for pleasure. However, my dad and Jake didn’t yet have the opportunityto visit it. Having this in mind, I made sure Sydney was the chosen destination for our annual family trip!

I was partially busy working, as I spent half of my time indoors, at the office. Even so,every day I gathered with my family for lunch, before I had to go back to work, and for dinner, as soon as I had finished my tasks. In this manner, they had plenty of time to enjoy sight-seeing and make the most out of their vacation in Sydney.

We couldn’t possibly leave Sydney without having a photoshoot. At first, my plan was to only take photos of Jake, but he was so adorable that I had to join in! To be honest, I kind of regret I didn’t invite my parents to take part in it as well. I am sure we would’ve had so much fun together. All in all, the photos turned out beautifully and we now have our wonderful memories to share together!
