something interesting
I decided to revive my holga to trial it out over the past few weeks. I took it to a wedding, wandered around Millport with it, then took some random shots around the house and whilst out and about.
It's tough to get the right focal distance with it... but sometimes I think that adds to the image. I just took a point & shoot approach (or asked Paul to point and shoot!) and these are the results.
Inspired by a fantastic blog that the lovely Lee (one of the first brides I ever photographed!) introduced me to and the weekly email updates I receive from the babycentre, I decided to introduce my 'bump to the blog' using what appears to be the most popular form of measuring your unborn baby....in fruit!
I've been having major dilemma's recently with my wardrobe as I start to grow out of my current clothes but I'm still not big enough to move into maternity clothes... I have a whole new appreciation for the elastic waistband! Carolee Beckham used the fruit-o-meter to measure her bump as well as give you 'style tips' on how to dress your with your ever expanding waistline. I can tell this blog is going to come in handy in the coming months!
So according to the fruit-o-meter my tiny resident is the size of an orange. AN ORANGE!
My best friend Emma is getting married at the beginning of May and considering she only got engaged to Sam at New Year she has managed to organise a fab wedding with loads of beautiful details and personal touches.
With help from her husband-to-be, Sam (who created the origami envelopes) and Sam's best man, Oisin (who did all the engraving) they created these stunning wedding invites. I love them. Something I will keep forever as a reminder of my best friends special day. I just can't wait for it to come!
I'm lucky enough to not only be Emma & Sam's photographer for the day... but also one of Emma's bridesmaid's... It's just as well I love a challenge!
