    3 Steps for Editing My DSLR Photos*

    September 17, 2018 /

    I like taking photographs, I always have done. I don’t know why but I value capturing a moment so I can remember it forever. When I was a teen I was always the one taking my camera out for nights on the town. Once upon a time it was a disposible camera, I’d buy one for each night out and I’d always get the photos printed. Then it was a digital camera, I would carry it around in my handbag and capture everything. I knew exactly how to get my photos from my camera to my computer, before the time of apps on you phone. If you’re unsure these days…

    Finding the Magic of a Moment*

    January 16, 2018 /

    Does anyone else find that a holiday goes by way faster than the time you spend leading up to the holiday? I have an app on my phone where I put all holidays or adventure dates into so when LM asks how long to go I can show her the numbers going down. But they go down so slow compared to the 3, 10, 14 or even 28 days a trip lasts (we did 28 days in Florida March 2016 and it still went by so much faster than the 28 days prior to us leaving). Then you come home and feel sad that the trip is over. Those holiday…

    Goals for 2017 – Learn to Use My Camera*

    February 1, 2017 /

    At the start of the year I wasn’t in the best head space to be making new years resolutions, not that I make any real ones anyway, I just usually set myself some goals to help improve my life. Now a month in I feel like I’m in a better place to real look at what I want to achieve in 2017. I strongly dislike January, and after my break up at the end of December I found it harder than ever but I survived, I made some good memories and I’m ready to move on. Now at the start of February it’s time to real dig my heals in,…

    Tips for Getting That Perfect Instagram Picture This Christmas*

    December 21, 2016 /

    Whenever I’m asked what my favourite app is my answer is ALWAYS Instagram. I’ve been on Instagram since I got my very first iPhone back in 2010. In the beginning Instagram just worked as social media to share photos, being a very visual person I love snapping, adding filters and posting mundane moments of my life. I was also going through my “self confidence” phase so I loved a selfie. It wasn’t important to take your photos from amazing angles and since everyone love the filters (and back then there was no other way to edit your photos) it wasn’t important to have amazing photography skills. After 3 years I…

    Cheerz Photo Album Review

    July 5, 2016 /

    At the end of last year I worked with Cheerz and got to review a box of their retro style prints which I popped in my Christmas cards! They were a huge hit and I kept the app on my phone as I knew it was a printing service I’d use again. Anyway, I was so excited when I was offered the chance to review their latest product, the photo album*! If you missed my last post, and you still have no idea what Cheerz is all about, I’ll give you a quick recap! Cheerz are the new kid on the block when it comes to printing photos in a…
