photobooth


I recently followed the crowd and bought a macbook. Of course the first thing I did to christen it was to spend three hours taking vain pictures on the photobooth app. Another great use of my time...

thank you stranger for your therapeutic smile

no money but a camera and a shred of energy so we spent the day window shopping and people watching in a quiet corner of the capital.

stalking the newburgh quarter

I recently found myself at a loss for anything to do and ended up wandering the streets of london taking candid shots of people-a really good use of my time I'm sure.

Bright Young Things

another 19th birthday party...
theme: film characters
costume: 1920s Bright Young Things
We went for Evelyn Waugh's bright young things. I found an enormous and ridiculosuly heavy faux fur coat at a thrift store and a cream slip dress from rocket.  Together with my new-ish cropped hair and and a DIY head band I thought I achieved it quite well. I also dug out some truly vintage long leather gloves that my granny used to wear on wild nights out.  Louis here sports her old netball blazer and my little sister's school hat, quite fetching.

chalk horse

I went for a walk in the Wiltshire hills with my little sister and my parents.  It didn;t sound partricularly interesting but it gave me some pretty good photography opportunities.
The clouds were moving really quickly across the sky creating a moving shadow over the vast landscape.  Very atmospheric.

It got a bit too much for Kitty.

Irving Penn

I recently became familiar with the work of Irving Penn, a really brilliant photographer.
