Work, work, work..

It’s all go over here, so I apologise for a lack of posts! I have a backlog and also not enough time to do everything I’d like at the moment, meaning blog posts have fallen by the wayside temporarily..

I have 11 weeks of uni left until freedom, our belated honeymoon and getting cracking with wedding season! Photography is the only colour in my life at the moment, I have new kit and I haven’t had to opportunity to really go and play about with it!

I’m doing kiddy winks and a family shoot this weekend, which I can’t wait to get out for, and 4 ‘inspiration’ shoot plans coming up in the next few months, including being asked to be second shooter for fantastic local photographer Katie Byram this month.

Here is the view from my life at the moment and I promise to post something more interesting very, very soon!

Have a great weekend everybody!

Jemima Puddle Duck’s Baptism..

My gorgeous niece, Jemima Rose, was Christened on Sunday. We drove down to Sheffield on Saturday night and Rosie (David’s sister) and her fiance Jon’s house was turned into ‘the mad house’ for a few days! Seven grandchildren on our side and another 4 on Jon’s side, all of them under 5. I don’t want to boast, but Dav and I have the most beautiful nieces and nephews, and they are all best friends to Vivienne. As a family we couldn’t be happier with ‘our lot’!

Congratulations to gorgeous Jemima on your baptism, and thanks to Rosie & Jon for having us!

Newcastle & Heaton Perk with Viv’n’Liv..

I love that Olivia only lives an hour up the road, I also love that we recently got a new car so now Vivi and I can drive up without worrying about breaking down! On Saturday Dav was at the football so we jumped in the car and drove up to see Olivia for lunch and a spot of vintage shopping at Judy’s Affordable Vintage Fair (simultaneously scouting out suppliers for the summer shoot – multitasking!).

I love, love, love Heaton Perk in Heaton, just outside of Newcastle. It has such a retro, eclectic, colourful cafe look, and they keep it simple. You can choose cake from the counter or get soup with a side. They even have games out for any children (or big children) that pop in.

And yes, Viv is wearing a black visor with a veil… What occasion could it possibly be for?!

Something which I become more and more addicted to all the time is Pinterest. It’s the easiest tool to use and fantastic for quickly making moodboards.. if you’re planning your wedding then SIGN UP NOW!

Also follow as many amazing people as you can, my favourites are fellow photographers and wedding bloggers, as they usually upload their blog content from that day pretty quickly.

It’s also amazing for recipes, and is solely responsible for the extra few pounds I put on over Christmas!
