Creating & Capturing Life's Precious Moments
I did a post recently about MacArthur Park, I was lucky to have the superb weather for this shoot with Blade Whittaker. We shot on the edge of a small lake, we had also done a brief session in the studio, but the weather was too gorgeous to be inside. I had this idea in…

Mel has an extended set of QUESTIONS for this week’s Halloween themed SYW. I will attempt to answer all of them, because…well why not I have a bit of time up my sleeve today. Name something you wouldn’t want to run into in a dark forest or in an abandoned building. I have actually done…

QUESTIONS FOR THIS WEEK: Name two books that have influenced you and share how. (Credit for this question goes to Teresa of The Haunted Wordsmith.

I have literally just spent three days at home not doing much, but at the same time accomplished a lot. I spent most of Friday playing catch up paperwork, edits, business stuff, also did some online training as well…it’s always good to keep learning new things. I also had a bit of a play with…
