a little peek of my op shop finds today.
i always go straight for children's books with gorgeous illustrations, i always imagine the pictures in a lovely frame in my daughters room but I can never bear to rip any book apart.
i'm off to play a little boggle, i can't remember the last time i played.
have a lovely weekend friends ;)

And if a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it's as though I've neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up ~ Richard Avedon

SO TRUE!!

this is my latest photoshoot...everything that could go possibly go wrong happened, all my plans went out the window but I think at the end I got some good shots.  My makeup skills were not that bad considering I had never EVER applied makeup on anyone other than myself (and I usually just apply blush with lipstick).  Just five assignments left eeek!!

PS. my lovely model is the one I will be photographing in January for her wedding

I initially went out this morning to find some clothes and inspiration for a photoshoot next week but came back home with these little treasures.  This seems to happen to me quite often. I am definitely a terrible shopper! but who could resist such cuteness?

baking & absences

sitting here in my room, eating lunch at 2pm (daylight savings always messes up my eating habits) and patiently waiting for my cinnamon sugar pull-apart bread to finish baking.   I hope it is yummy and mostly I hope it leaves the yummiest smell in my house.  My need to bake took over today and I have ignored uni work... well, for a couple of hours anyway.

I know it has been the longest time since I have blogged, I have been busy with life, with iron injections, with dropping off my kids and a little uni work too but I also have been lazy and have not felt the desire to blog...THAT is the simple truth.  Does anyone else ever feel like that? I know I definitely do plus I am not a very exciting person in all honesty.

I have taken too long to write the above lines and now there is the most delicious aroma coming from my kitchen and I had better check it. I will try to be around a little more ;)

PS I will also try my hardest to photograph this bread after baking but I am not too sure if there will be any left :/
