Photo shoot

This blog seems to be turning into a photography blog and nothing else at the moment.

I am really enjoying my photography at the moment, my family think i am becoming a bit obessed!!!

These photos were taken at the weekend, for cheryl's workshop. I really wanted to do some grungy, moody teenage shots, so borrowed my eldest nephew. He was a brilliant model, and I was able to get just the shots i was after, thankyou Daniel!!!

On the home front, things are changing dramatically. i have resigned from my job, bit sad, as despite all the change and upheaval of the last few months, it is a job i still really enjoy. But with erin starting school soon, and various other things, the logistics were just becoming too difficult. I am going to be doing 2 nights a week respite for a family I know fairly well, with a chronically ill baby. It is agency work, so not very secure, but should suit me better.

The extension is now finished, just need to find time to decorate it all, I am ding a bit in the evenings, but it is hard when there is a baby in the house.

a few pics.

Here are a few shots from my course on Monday that I am quite pleased with.

My Girls

It feels like a while since I have blogged.

We have been to France, and had a lovely, much needed family break. A few ups and downs while there, mostly weather induced. Disappointing photo opportunities, again weather induced, but on the whole a fab time, and the girls had a ball I think.

Have been very active in the photo taking stakes since getting back, taking shots for this weeks module. I have produced yet another favourite shot of Erin, what is it about the girl, she is just so photogenic, and I don't know why. She is my daughter, so I am biased, of course I am, but she seems to have 'it', every shot is so easy. And then there is Cerys. Funny, quirky, smiley Cerys, who is such a little treasure, but can I get a good shot of her? Not on your life ,she is either frowning or sulking, or closing her eyes, or just being...well Cerys, I just want that one good shot, as she is the sunniest of my two, but in the first year of her life, it has just not happened. I'll just have to keep getting that camera out.

And it is late, or rather early in the morning, and I have work tomorrow, but cannot sleep, as I saw Eva today, and she has been told Elena will not survive, and I cannot stop thinking about it. Our children should not go before us.
