Advice For Brides About Photography

You can find a whole bunch of advice about choosing your photographer and getting the most out of them online – but in actuality, I myself did not realise the kind of advice I needed about being a bride making decisions about wedding photography. Some of the harder things to decide when it comes down …

Photo of the Week: Sappy

So, because of the faults with my Instagram app, lucky y'all get photos that would otherwise have been first given there. Including this sappy collection (well, two) of cards I'm beginning to accumulate on my mantelpiece, featuring a me in the background. Yay, for mirrors! (Sarcasm) Clearly not the best of shots, but sometimes one …

Photo of the Week: Tuxedo

Glamorous, eh? At my mum's house has arrived a new stray to add to our list of cats we are caring for (separately and when I stay over). And this cat follows the trend of black and whites who hang out with my mother and I. Look at those little buttons eyes and button nose! …

Photo of the Week: Copycat

Because cat photos. Life with three cats is interesting, but ultimately one of the best experiences I have had. With all their three personalities, every day is something different. But it is indeed Marmite who is the most...intriguing. She is the most territorial, yet she is in herself shy. She is one to dine-and-dash, so …

Photo of the Week: Curious Is the Cat

It's another cat photo, yay! Haha, I met this fluffy long-haired fellow at the weekend in Reading for the Swing Dance exchange. They needed some persuasion, but eventually I coaxed one cat over, where they suddenly showered with me attention. I took a number of this beauty as they walked the garden fence following me, and …

Photo of the Week: Moorchicks

Want more little fluffy things for this middle of Spring? I have you covered! These baby moorhens (and sadly some of the only photos I was able to take this week) are new to the campus lake and followed their mama. Look at that chick standing atop the rock!

A Birthday Friday

It's my birthday! My 21st, in fact. In some places that would mean something, but to me, in England, it means nothing. At least my partner and I can celebrate with matching t-shirts 😀 (Made by the cutest of t-shirt providers, TeeTurtle) 3 exams down, 3 to go. All next week.

Photo of the Week: Farm

The #RUSUsaysrelax farm animals were back on campus last week as a well-needed break from revision. Amongst the cute baby rabbits, turtle, and kids, were these lambs, who attracted a lot of attention. They were soft, and I do like a soft and fluffy animal to pet. 🙂

Photo of the Week: Fluffies

It's been a while, I know. I'm slogging through my dissertation. So. Nearly. Done. At least Spring is officially here and the campus is coming alive. Take, for instance, this snap from the week of our Egyptian Geese - and their new chicks!

Photo of the Week: Unusual

Any idea what this bird is? A beautiful specimen found by the lake on campus, and something I snapped up as soon as I saw it. Against the mud green and the murk blue of winter's fingers on the lake and the grounds, the bright colours of this duck-bird catches the eye. We wonder at …
