Why this blog?

I've started this blog as I have always loved photography and would like to make it into a small business one day. But till then I thought that it would be good since I have a new SLR camera to try and take photos as much as I can, to improve my skills and learn new ones. (There is always plenty to learn!) So I am looking forward to starting my Project: Photographer blog and hope that you enjoy the work I do too!



Day 60: One Day...

One day my garden will be full of all these beautiful plants, trees and flowers I love to photograph. One day....maybe I have my first New Years resolution...hmm?

Day 59: Lilacs

Lilacs ~ I want some in my garden!! They are just fantastic to photograph.

Day 58: The Wall

Over this wall was a big lake with huge fish!  Noah loved the fish and I thought that it was pretty neat to photography too.

Day 57: Pansies

The weather has been strangely warm for this time of year, but it also means there are still so many beautiful flowers to photograph! Yay for warm weather and pretty flowers.

Day 56: Christmas!

Yes we have decorated up for Christmas!!  I just LOVE the holidays and have been excited about decorating our house for the past month!  So now we have finally decorated I thought what best way to celebrate our decorations than to take pictures. :)

Day 55: The Lane

Since my husband is home, we've been going to all these pretty places and there have been loads of photo opportunities ~ like this cute little lane!  I love it!! 

Day 54: Family Photo

After a LONG photo session, this is the best we could get!  Noah, bless him, was very unimpressed with the whole photo shoot idea, but it turned out just fine ~ considering I was taking the photos myself (on timer!) they turned out fine and I'm now a little fitter too. I have to admit, the outtake pictures are just the funniest!




Day 53: Fresh Washing

I know I love the smell of fresh washing, but apparently so does my son! :)

Day 52: Sunset

I love sunsets!

Day 51: England

So today has been somewhat busy and I haven't had any time to photograph, so I thought that I would pull up something from my archives, a beautiful picture from England ~ oh how I miss thee!

Day 51: Hose

Without mentioning any names, this is a dedicated photo....I hope I've done the subject 'a garden hose' justice! :)

Day 50: Legs

I love this photo of Noah's legs.  I was originally trying to get a photo of his shadow, but he was just moving around too much...but still I am happy with this shot.

Day 49: Yellow

Well they're not orange....
Yellow is another feel good colour.  I don't think you can go wrong when photographing yellow flowers!

Day 48: Cake!

I know my pictures haven't been very creative lately...I will try harder.  But today's photo is of the best cake ever!  A friend gave it to me for my birthday and it is so delicious...I love the chocolate and caramel mix.

Day 47: Boots

Since my husband is home, there is a lot of things to pack away, and although its not tidy in our room and his things are everywhere at the moment (did I mention I love to be tidy!) I love it!  I would change my fetish for tiding up, for my wonderful husband any day!  Welcome home my love :)

Day 46: Welcome Home

Sorry the pictures not too creative today.  My wonderful husband got home from deployment today and I didn't have time to do too much.  However, my friend made this super cute shirt for Noah to wear to see his daddy, don't you just love it?!  I know I do!

Day 45: A Touch of Pink

I loved how these carnations had just that hint of pink in them, so I wanted to make sure that was the focus of this photo.

Day 44: Sunrise

Do I need to say any more?

Day 43: Our Garden


Our garden doesn't have much in it right now, but we do have weeds! :)  However, I was able to snap a few different shots today as the sun was shining!

Day 42: The Lake

I love taking 'water' photos.  There is something peaceful about them.

Day 41: Fog

This morning I woke up super early, I guess all the sleeping I did yesterday didn't help.  When I took a look outside there was a cover of fog which I just loved.  I wish that I could have got out to a better, more scenic place, like a field, because it would have made a perfect picture, like something out of Pride and Prejudice.  Anyways, I couldn't so this scene will have to do.

Day 40: Lamp

 Before editing
After editing

So todays photo had to come from my archives as I was just too ill to photograph anything. But its something different so I hope you like it.

Day 39: Guitar


I am so sorry that I am late in posting my last few pictures!  Noah and I have had food poisoning and have been out of action for the last few days!  Its not been fun, but just before I got sick I managed to take a few snap shots of one of my favourite instruments in the house.....my guitar!

Day 38: Me!

So I don't feel in such a creative mood today, but I thought I would share with the world what I have looked like these past 38 days, whilst trying to get a good photo for this blog each day! 
(Me with camera glued to my eye! :))

Day 37: Candle Sticks

I loved these candle sticks when I bought them, and I love them even now....plus I think the glass texturing makes for a great photo!

Day 36: Faces

My little boy is so clever he can already curl his tongue!

Day 35: Peruvian Lilies


I know I have already taken pictures of lilies, but my dear husband got me these beautiful Peruvian Lilies for our anniversary, so I had to take a shot of them!

Day 34: Anniversary


I've always wanted to picture my wedding dress and so I thought what better day to do it than today...our anniversary!  I love my husband :)

Day 33: Sleep

After a night of thuderstorms with hail, Noah and I needed nap today.  Don't children look so angelic when they're sleeping?!

Day 32: Pink

Although I do class myself as a girlie girl, pink is not my favourite colour.  Mainly for the fact that the colour does not actually suit me.  Anyway, this beautiful pink bush is planted all over our neighbourhood and I just love it.  So I thought yes, this can be todays picture.
