Wedding

Last weekend I had the amazing privilege to photograph a wedding as a favour for a neighbours close friend.  We had sun and it was such a beautiful day.

Wabi-Sabi

My decaying roses, recently I have started reading up on Wabi-Sabi.  This Japanese view, resonates with my yearning for imperfect beauty and something unfinished.  Enjoying the sun?

Potting table

I have great dreams for our side return, it fact it would be lovely if it looked like this image.  Considering that this is the first year, that I have shown an interest and commitment to our garden the present use it more fitting.  It is currently used as my storage and potting area.  What are you doing to enjoy the sun?

Mid Morning

Ok, so Saturday morning my green tea was accompanied by some dark chocolate and nuts.  This morning it was accompanied by some caramel waffles.  However most of my time was the final image, washing, ironing, and bagging up clothes to go to various recipients.  Ps. Love my new white, it was a treat from R, for my de-cluttering efforts and was for the mini blue one, 50p from a local charity shop and my plant pot was £1.00!

Lemons and Sunshine

Two yellows I love, lemons and sunshine.  OK so the sunshine disappeared fairly quickly today.  The sideboard is still here, so this remains my favourite spot.  To top it all the little lace placemat set me back £0.50p...a super fab bargain!

An Apple a day!

Still making of the most of the sideboard and the gentle light that the window lets in.

Garden Days

Yeah a whole weekend of sun!  Admittedly wearing short sleeves didn't appeal to me, as it was still chilly, but our girls insisted that they were hot!

Last Chance

Over the weekend we bought a vintage pine school cupboard for the hallway.  It means we have to put our old sideboard on ebay!  So with the Sun making an appearance today, I styled a few bits on it and no doubt a few other shots will follow, before we say so-long!  Mrs Cheese, thanks for sharing the sun, nice to see you back online.

A pocket of dry weather, so I snapped my neighbour's white lilac.  Really hoping to grow my own lilac someday.  There is a rumor that this weekend in the south of England, the rain will cease.  Fingers crossed that I will be able to shoot some more.  Any ideas for what I can shoot, I am looking for a challenge.  D x

Struggling

Feeling a little guilty that I have been neglecting the blog world of late.  Blogging has opened up so much for me, both in terms of the lovely kind feedback from you all, to finding out new sources of inspirations, a creative outlet, fabulous blogs and wonderful finds.  Also I feel lucky that I have made a few connections, through this cyber space.  Presently I am working hard on building a photography portfolio that I can start to showcase and also want to turn some of my images into cards, prints and canvas?!  What with juggling the home and family life and starting on my new adventure, things have been slipping.  The other distraction which, is far too distracting is pinterest!  Anyway, please be patient with me, I hope to get my blogging Mojo back!

Sunny Afternoon

L, taking the sunshine seriously and sporting a high summer outfit.  I had to remind her that it rained in the morning and that summer has not officially started!
