Wine Time!!

Nothing has been done today in regards to my Photography - not good.
I have been having a pretty lazy day. I started to do some cleaning this morning, but I really got over that quickly :/
I always feel dissapointed in myself when I have a lazy day, yet I can still never motivate myself to do much.
So now I'm just drinking wine, sitting on the computer chattin away on facebook and doing this blog, because I really think I should do it everyday, even if I have done nothing.
-I can tell this blog is going to be so incredibly interesting -

In regards to the subject of the baby cocoon that i want for my shoot, I have found my saviour!!! A really good photographer that I know Emma Nayler told me about this woman who does it in my home town.Woot Wooz Childrens Clothing - she is amazing!! And such good pricing. Very happy with how things are turning out.

Thats all I really have to say ....Sorry my day has been so boring and this blog doesn't really flow.....Like I said, I'm drinking wine.

Day Three - A day for knitting/crocheting

Today I wanted to learn to crochet or knit - because of my post yesterday and wanting a baby cocoon for a photography prop.

It didn't go so well -

I don't like things to take forever, so here is my tiny miniature baby cocoon. When I tried to make a larger one I got two or three rows done, and then had a break. After that break I looked at how far i had gotten and realised somehow that my three rows were twisted, HOW DID THEY GET TWISTED!!!!

So now I'm thinking I will definetly just have to try and find a cheap one somewhere.
* I also had a look on http://www.etsy.com/ today for some, and found cheesecloth wraps, so I might just buy them because they look adorable in some pictures....Don't you think?

If anyone has any cute idea's for my photoshoot, please let me know!

I want this to be a very succesful shoot :)

Day Two!

So my day has gone really well! I have been asked to do a Newborn Shoot :)

So to get ready for the Photoshoot I was looking on Google and I saw the most adorable photograph of a newborn.

If you cant see - the photographers name is Kristen Cook - and i just had a look at her website and she is an amazing Photographer!

I think I will try this pose out when I do my newborn shoot next week.

I really wish I had one of the baby cocoon things to use as a prop I love the little pictures that can be made when using that prop.

If any of you out there know a really great place to order them from please leave a comment

How adorable :)

Thats all I have for today - I think I'm doing well with this blogging thing. Go ME!

P.s. Just while I have been writing this I have been asked about doing a Family Shoot - This day is incredible!



First Day!

So, here goes....My first blog post!
Well I have previously tried blogging and failed, I'm really not that smart when it comes to technology. If you have read my about me section you now know a little bit about me - I bet that was very exciting for you.

In my about me I mentioned the first photograph that I actually really looked at that showed me how amazing photography can be, and that it can capture huge amounts of emotion. The photo is called Migrant Mother and the Photographer is Dorothea Lange.

This is the photo that made me really interested in Photography, I had seen it while in school in Art class. We must have been doing a unit on Photography. From then on, all my assignments in Art I did used Photography as my media. My teacher didn't like it. She had a lot of negative comment on all my Photography - which when it comes to Art I don't think you can tell someone what they have done is wrong. Fair enough if you don't like their work, but to tell them everything they did was wrong and its not Art is just wrong.

Needless to say I didn't listen to my teacher and I kept doing what I love.

This blog will have photos that inspire me, quotes that inspire me, music that inspires me and of course some of my own photographs. And hopefully this blog works out better than others I have tried.
