Watching the Sun set

The other night I watched the sky change colour as the sun set, after a pamper session with my muma (birthday gift, thank you!). There were two shows happening at once, one in front of us and one to the left. These photos are straight out of my iPhone, just resized and saved for web [...]

I love new design books!

Today I got 3 in the mail care of Amazon, and last week I got one with a Borders book voucher I got for Christmas from Erin. weeeeee =) Also I made a tumblr account, I’m going to do a 365 photographs project where I plan to show 365 of my own original photos throughout [...]

Today I am…

I’ve recently fallen back in touch with someone I used to do web design for, the lovely and talented Elise of LeCoCo [portraits by Elise]. She was kind enough to link to me in her latest blog post, so I’d like to do the same! She also gave me fuel for todays post, and I [...]

She politely declined, stating she reserves all rights. This got me thinking about my photographs and how they might be useful for others to use [...]

Sneak Peek : Photoshoot for ZilpahTartBags.com

Sunday evening I went out with Yumi of ZilpahTartBags.com to shoot for her new catalogue. The sky threatened to rain and it was disappointing to not get a little more sun for the shots, but near the end it peeked out from behind the clouds and we got some nice photos. We went to the [...]

Another cool invitation design that tells a story

And what a story! This one is actually not a new find, it’s from November last year (right about the time I was finishing up our invitations, wish I’d seen these these beforehand for inspiration!), but I didn’t have a blog back in November so I thought I’d share them now.
