Word of the Week: pulchritudinous

It's not as if I don't come across new words all that often; I like to think I read enough variety that I should be coming across new words on a frequent basis, but more often than not, the beautiful words I come across are those of which I already have a knowledge. Or vice …

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.

Photo of the Week: Yellows

These are some of my favourite flowers, and it's easy to see why: vibrant yellow, fluffy, whilst still being dainty. Plus, they attract bumbles.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Happy Valentine's, Galentine's, Blalentine's, or whatever. However you're spending your day, and with whomever, respect yourself. This should not be a day of comparisons, but a day of appreciation.
