Where I've been...

Sorry I haven't written for so long! I've had so much going on & haven't really been in a writing mood. I've taken about a billion photos since my last post so I'll put some of them up...













So that's what I've been up to for work & school... I'm thinking next year is going to be insane!

A sneak peak...

of Kimbers' photoshoot. 8 hours of driving, posing & clicking & 1 call to RAA to come rescue us when something snapped off in the ignition! What a day!

Meet John

The newest edition to my Sea of Faces. I met him at the car wash while we were vacuuming our cars. I was so nervous asking him if I could take his photo but he was super nice & happy to oblige. I only took a few because I didn't want to keep him from whatever he was doing. Hope he likes them!

What's in a name?

I'm trying to come up with a name for my business... it's really hard!

So far i have:

  • Captures by Kristin
  • Memories by Kristin
  • Cherished Memories
  • Cherished Memories by Kristin
  • Cherished Moments by Kristin

I like cherished memories by kristin but think it's too long.

Any suggestions??

The wedding

I've finally finished editing the wedding photos! It was fun to start off with, but almost 400 later & I'm a little over it. They've now been sent off to the loved up couple so fingers crossed they approve!

Dead Letter Circus

Kimbers & I went to a gig last night - Sydonia & Dead Letter Circus. I'd never heard any of Sydonia's mucis & thought I probably wouldn't like them because they're a bit heavier than what I'm usually into but I actually ended up loving them! It was a good night. My first go at gig photography... not overly successful but it could've been worse! Better keep practicing!

I'm back!!

We had a great time away but as always, it went too fast! We were only there for 5 days & it just wasn't long enough. Here are a few highlights in no particular order...

Scooby the new puppy... soooo cute & mischievious!

Pinky - I try to steal her every time I go there! hehe

The family - of course!

The gorgeous sunsets


The crabs weren't really a highlight - they scared the crap out of me!

Terry's birthday cake decorated by his little brother with pretty much everything he could find in the house!

The stunning beach

And the best part - getting to spend a WHOLE WEEK with my amazing hubby. =)

Now, back to the real world!

Oh what a night

Every term, two photos from each class get chosen to be put up on the school website. Last night, one of mine was chosen! It's the 2nd time I've had the honour now. You can check it out here under student gallery in about a week. Or just look below now!

Bindi the Boss

My cat Bindi thinks he's the boss of the world! I have to make sure he's inside from dusk to dawn or you can bet your life on the fact that he'll come home covered in blood and scratches! Sometimes I think he fights with possums or maybe dogs... I'm positive he's used at least 7 of his 9 lives! If only the boys I live with would listen to me when I tell them not to let him out at night! He's pretty smoochy & loveable for such a big, tough Tom though. I can always count on him to cheer me up when I'm feeling down. We have some great conversations! Everyone thinks I'm a crazy cat lady... and I think they might be right! =)



Oh Ps. I've made my enormous life changing decision and it feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders! Life is good. =)

Hormones


Mine are all over the place. I'm sick of life being an emotional rollercoaster so back off to the Dr I go!!
In completely irrelevent news, I'm really happy with my terms work so far. I've seen a real improvement in my photos. I think this subject - photographic design - has taught me the most out of everything I've learnt so far! If only this was one of the first subjects you could do...

Thanks Rach!!

For my amazing new blog layout. I'm in love with it!! =) I don't have time to change the pics that are already on here but I'll make sure all future ones are the right size. =)
