Not my day job…
So I have been promising some cuddly animal photos since I got back from the wedding I shot at Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, so here you are. Some of them aren’t quite so cuddly. It was a bit of a break from the normal day to day and I won’t be shooting for National Geographic …
Please help! I love Mondays…
…but I’m not a fan of the end of the week and I’m not sure what to do about it. So any tips and advice would be much appreciated. I’m starting to think it is a self-employed issue. I used to be normal. Well okay not particularly normal but I used to have a five …

The blog has been a bit wedding and engagement heavy of late so I think it’s time to look at other parts of the business. I never set out to do only wedding photography. I know photographers are regularly told they have to do one thing but that doesn’t fit with my philosophy. I want …
