The wedded couple are friends of mine, and the Bride had incredibly beautiful ideas for the reception, which came together very prettily. She wanted an elegant, springlike, almost minimalistic feel. The table decorations alternated between lace [...]

We’re moving! It’s been in the pipeline for a while. I’ve always known it might happen.

Sometimes there are flurries of photography shoots worthy of blogging about. Other times of the year, I am up to my ears in flowers and foam, and can’t stop taking photos of petals and blooms and brides. At the moment, I’m swimming [...]

The feeling of WOOHOO! It’s the weekend tomorrow! What shall I do? Maybe we’ll take the dog for a walk, and play ball. Maybe on the walk, I’ll look out for signs of new life, of bulbs planted that are shooting up out of the ground. Maybe on the walk [...]

We’ve had snow in Durham for well over two weeks now, and the big defrost started yesterday. I’m now no longer looking forward to walking the dog, as he runs frantically through the mud. It was much more fun in the snow. At the moment, the dog isn’t getting any [...]
