Yesterday I had the privilege of photographing the wedding of Liz and Jamie, two of my very best friends.  As they are about to jet off across the world on honeymoon I thought I would share some photos with you of the lovely bride and groom.

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Duncan!

See you in a couple of weeks.

All the best for the future:)

I am photographing a wedding this weekend for some of my best friends! I’m so glad that I get the opportunity to do it. I used to live with them for a few years so we all get on so well! The wedding is going to be elegant and I know that Liz’s dress is going to look amazing!

The wedding is going to be a Tithe Barn in Petersfield, and I am aiming on getting some fantastic shots of the two of them!

Watch this space as I shall upload some images for the lovely bride and groom as soon as I have some!

I have been really busy, which is a good thing, but I have not really had a chance to update my 365 project. Finally I caught a break and have done so. All the pictures are held on my Flickr account, and here is the link - http://flic.kr/ps/AzSt8 come along and check it out!

I have been so busy over the last few weeks I can’t even begin to explain! I am a little behind with my 365 project too. I have, however taken the photos. I just need to find the time to sit down, edit and upload them!

In other news though I have started doing a Level 4 Licentatae in Youth Managment and Training which I am doing through the ACF. Its a challenging project but it means that I will get another new qualification under my belt!

The wedding season is starting and my diary is starting to fill up! I am looking forward to doing the wedding of Lee and Jane and Amy and Dean in August, plus my dear old friend Liz and Jamie who are getting married in April!

Woo! Lets let the good times roll!

I’ve not had a lot of sleep for the last few days. Not sure why. Last night I think I had about 4 hours sleep in total. I guess I have so much going through my mind at the moment. Work is really busy!

It is amazing how much there is in life to photograph. I looked around the house and wanted to do something with water tonight! So while I was washing up I saw this!

I love the shallow focus and the water drops. I’ve processed this in Lightroom again and worked with different colors what seem to have worked for this shot! I guess you can’t beat the 50mm lens!

This morning I actually made it on time with everything. I even managed to get the shots for today that I wanted. I’ve wanted to get some shots of the sunrise. The last few mornings its been beautiful and I’ve missed it each time! However this morning Boom! There it is!

I love the cold mornings. And I always feel that the sunrise is better when its cold. Maybe that’s because of the frost. I love wintry mornings and, today it was cold stood in the field taking shots. I got some really funny looks from a lot of people this morning too, but I have found a nice place to get shots like this!

Yesterday I was in a weird mood. I have a lot on my mind and lot to deal with, work wise and cadet wise! I somehow managed to get onto talking about nursery rhymes yesterday and I got to thinking about Humpty Dumpty! Needless to say, this is where my inspiration came from today! It’s quite a sad picture I guess! Humpty Dumpty never got put back together!

Sometimes in life I guess people feel a little like Humpty Dumpy, but remember, there is always a way to be put back together again!

I spent this weekend away with the Army Cadets. Its been a long weekend, productove and alot was achieved, but not with out it’s faults! Sadly there are always going to be faults to deal with. Communication seems to be the biggest issue most people in life face these days. Why do we both talking to each other when most of the time all we can do is be nasty?

Day 27.

Arrival into camp was smooth and went with out a hitch. This pleased me as the hard work in preparing prior made sure of this! It was cold when the cadets arrived – and it gold colder and colder and I knew that it was going to be a chilly weekend!

This is one of my radios - constantly attached to me and constantly being used! I am always the most contacted person when we go away to camp!

Day 28

I don’t often get the chance to go out and training with the cadets. I do have a very admin/management heavy job, however, this weekend I made sure I made time do go out. I spent the afternoon working with the senior cadets and assisting with their training by being their enemy. It was cold, but suck good fun! This was the state of me when I got back into camp

So with camp looming and Steph still away I have been so busy this evening. I’ve spent most of it sorting out the stupid washing machine. It has been driving me nuts all evening. I’ve finally given up. It almost ended up heading over the balcony onto the road… grrrrrr

So this evening I was packing for camp and I thought I would just pack my camera kit and gear ready for this weekend. I had my lenses out and I thought I would photograph them. I was going to then photograph my camera with them, and use Steph’s camera to take the photo – but I decided that I was only going to do the lenses!

I love my camera and I love my camera lenses!

What a day. I’ve been rushed off my feet all day and then this evening I spent packing kit ready for the weekend. I am off on a training weekend with the Army Cadets.

So I was thinking about the photo today and I was inspired by a photo that I saw this morning on Facebook. It got me thinking about how I could use a pen and get creative. And this is what I got up to!

I’m not sure how to take it at the moment. I think I really need to use a tripod and plan shots like this a lot more. Or get someone to help. Normally, Steph would help out but she is on a course at the moment so I am home alone! What do you all think?
