Portrait Session: Tim and Roz
This weekend was my second weekend of portrait sessions. I had three over the weekend. This session was the second, and with people I knew; Tim and Roz and their family. I feel like taking photos of friends is actually harder than taking photos of strangers. I think it’s got something to do with theContinueContinue reading “Portrait Session: Tim and Roz”

Beki Makes Things: Glitter Helmet
I tried really hard to find a helmet that really stood out to me. I was, however, unlucky in my search, and had to find alternative ways to rock a fabulous helmet. Wellington has loads of places to find materials with which to DIY your own cool things. So I went out and located theContinueContinue reading “Beki Makes Things: Glitter Helmet”

WeContinueContinue reading “Portrait Session: Eden and Thyme”
Things I am loving this week (and last week too)
I have had another busy few weeks, hence the lack of a one week update. The garden is now getting pretty grassy, but it’s still quite patchy. I have no idea what we’ve done to make it patchy; we used WAY more seed than was recommended, so who knows 🙂 Things I am loving thisContinueContinue reading “Things I am loving this week (and last week too)”
Motorbike Test: Take II
Today I took my bike test again. I failed. Again. James and I rode out to Paraparaumu in order for me to do it there. I wanted to take it in a different place to the last time in the hopes that it might make a difference. It didn’t. Motorbike licensing here in New ZealandContinueContinue reading “Motorbike Test: Take II”

Things I am loving this week
I have had a busy week. My brain cogs have been working away. I think I’m really getting into the swing of the new job. I think. The garden is now a waiting game…waiting to see how the grass seed grows and waiting to see if the drainage situation has been fixed. The rain isContinueContinue reading “Things I am loving this week”
