New Camera!

| SallyT

Just a little indulgent post to thrive over my new camera! I’m going to get out over the weekend and play about with it properly, but for now I’m happy running around the house experimenting with the controls (I’ve always been on Nikon, this is my first Canon) and taking a few snaps. Here are a few first pics, Viv was being my model as usual as well as taking pics of the junk/decoration around the house (piece of trivia: that is Liam Gallagher’s tambourine in the second photo).

Also I daren’t say too much yet, but I has a few very exciting pieces of news to share, hopefully by the end of the week, and I’ve literally be dancing around for the past few days. One includes a 1950s film set, one includes travel and one is a project of my very own….. EEK!

Another little preview..

Today I’ve finished the images for the ‘Alice in Wonderland’ style shoot we did last week, so to keep you going here’s a few favourites before we decide to reveal them all!!

A huge thanks to everyone involved, Katy for her styling and headpieces, Lynsey for her crockery and styling, Daisy Cupcakes, our models Katie and Nathalie, some gorgeous accessories from Vicky Trainor and wonderful looks from MUA Tracey from Beautiful Bride Makeovers.

More to come soon…..

Down the Rabbit Hole… {Preview}

| SallyT

On Sunday I packed the car up, cleaned it out ready for dresses, cakes and paraphernalia ready for a shoot inspired by Alice in Wonderland, styled by Katy, owner of the magic fingers that work for What Katy Did Next, and Lynsey, owner of new company The Whistling Bunting.

Bright and early I set off to pick up Katy, we packed the car and happily made our way up to the cottages we’d been allowed to shoot in for the day….. However, my little car had other ideas and very sadly broke down for the very last time about half way there!

Around an hour later Lynsey and her husband Matthew came to rescue us, and we made our way up to where the models were already being made up, and miraculously managed to get through the outfit changes and ideas that we’d had just in time for the light disappearing and everyone having to make their way home.

Here is a sneak peek of what’s to come… and I’ll preview more in a few days..

A Walk in the Woods…

| SallyT

One of my New Year’s Resolutions was to just forget about everything and ‘head for the hills’ more often, and on one bright cold Sunday we decided to throw work to one side, went to see my Grandpa, for a pub lunch and went for a little walk behind the house I lived in up to the age of 4, deep in North Yorkshire.

We couldn’t walk too far (Vivi only has little legs and they get tired easily!), so we went to the slate hills at the top of the path where there are millions of rabbit warrens, and we looked for Peter Rabbit and the Flopsy Bunnies. Here are a few pics from the day, my little family and I loved it, and we’ll definitely be doing it again when we can!
