Five Minutes with my new Handbag – RegularRandom
So, I might have bought a new bag 😊 It’s been a rough few weeks. I needed a little retail therapy. Plus, my favourite handbag, that I’ve had since 2010, was destroyed by mould in my leaking apartment. These are my reasons. But really, I just wanted it. So I got it. Perfect opportunity for…

Five Minutes with Pink Gin – RegularRandom
Edit: actually this is a 10 minute shoot! I got carried away. I might have had a sip before I started! Yesterday, June 9, was World Gin Day! I also discovered that it was World Rosé Day, so I decided to buy some Pink Gin. I made a delicious cocktail (recipe below) and went on…

So Much Chocolate.
Somehow, my desk at work has become the repository for chocolate. I was given a special block as a little gift for some work that I did, and my team ate the whole thing one day while I was in a meeting. They felt so guilty about it that they bring me a new (not…

The Way the Cookie Crumbles
Finally, I ate the cookie. It was delicious, even though it was about 10 days old. I finally managed to photograph it on the scalloped plate but I’m not sure I really did it justice. Very enjoyable though, from purchase through to eating, I really had fun photographing it multiple times. Hopefully you didn’t get…

Moments in Time 1
A wise man recently told me that you have to put your own oxygen mask on first, before helping others. It’s funny, I heard that on average twice a week for 12 years on airplanes and I didn’t really think about it applying to “real life”. Sometimes, you just have to take time for yourself.…

Five Minutes with a Disbud – RegularRandom
I love to bump up the exposure on shots with a white background, and this time I couldn’t help but play with some Lightroom presets in editing. Would you like to join in the RegularRandom event? Here’s how: choose a subject or a scene spend five minutes photographing it – no more! try to not…

Remember the Cookie?
Remember the Mother’s Day cookie? Well of course I had to get a whole lot of shots with it. It was so cute. I love the pink marble effect in the icing. At the end of the post, I’ve included some shots with my Traveler’s Notebook journal as well. I still haven’t eaten it, I…

Hyacinths from the Bouquet
The Mother’s Day bouquet that I put together was really a lot of fun for me – I took a lot of shots, and used parts of it in a few different shoots. I have a few more to come, but this is the last set of flowers alone. I’ve included a shot of the…

From the Bouquet
Someone! Can you tell me what these very pretty flowers are? These were “for quick sale” out the front of the florists and I thought they would look fabulous in my bouquet. Love these. x desleyjane
