Creating & Capturing Life's Precious Moments
I keep telling myself eight more days of work, just eight days! Then I an on holidays for nearly three weeks! The weather has been improving, although we are in for a scorcher today, 37°C expected today. Had a super fabulous weekend, with a slight crimp in it…my dishwasher died. It was old so I…

I don’t know about you but things are getting busy. It’s only the first week of December and I have already had one Christmas luncheon, technically I had one last weekend too. We had our VPC Xmas party at Mont de Lancey Historic Farmstead in Wandin had a mini photoshoot, with an Elf who just…

Oh what a wonderfully relaxing weekend. Should be more of them, but then how do the bills get paid? Especially after a busy and stressful weekend the week before. We had quite a few shoots and days out last weekend with a friend coming to stay from out of town. My camera died on me…

The year is rapidly drawing to a close (I keep saying that!), but it’s been crazy busy. Shoots that have been booked literally for months happened this weekend, one was cancelled, but we were on location anyway, so made the best of being out in nature. I had a photographer friend spend the weekend, down…

Still struggling with my back, I went back to the Doctor who has agreed there might be more going on than original thought so I am off for a round of CT Scans, bloods, X-Rays and such…not much fun, but hopefully, it’s treatable. Meanwhile lots of wine (for medicinal reasons) and pain killers for me.…

I sadly had my back go on me again, so spent most of the week and weekend crippled and not doing a lot. Massages have helped dramatically. I have been perhaps spending too much time on the PC, but edits, writing articles and other commitments have kept me there, I know I should get up…

I decided after yesterday that I think I really am ready to start winding down to the end of the year. December and January I usually take off, no point running classes and workshops, as everyone is busy with Christmas and Summer holidays, which means I can sit back and enjoy them too. I know…

I managed to have a completely relaxing – no work three day weekend, to be honest I think I needed it. My back and hip are in a bad way and a few days of rest and sleep-ins, couch sitting and a small amount of walking helped…I think. Just as well, I have a couple…

Our beloved Dexter (the dog) is a world-class sook! He is now also quite heavy…over 16kgs (so much for a small dog…and it’s NOT fat), I stupidly tried to pick him up the other day and tweaked something in my back, which is now giving me hell. I have been battling through, but any of…
