INSTAGRAM #2

The past month of summer has seemed to go far too quickly, probably because I'm spending the majority of the time moving between two houses and working but there's nothing new there.
I have spent a bit of money on new shoes, bags and a trip to Edinburgh (whoops) but I'm going to try and refrain myself from now on to save up for driving lessons and some new camera equipment.
I also found myself flicking through the photos of NY from the beginning of the year, definitely need to pay another visit there again in the near future.

JORDAN


Since I've been finished university for the summer I'm trying to do a couple more shoots to help build up my portfolio and because it's something I'm passionate about.

BRISTOL #1



As I mentioned previously I paid a visit to Bristol recently to visit family, and just generally to explore a new city.
While we were there we grabbed some amazing food, if you're ever in the area I recommend paying a visit to Bagel Boy, who really do have the best bagels. While around the area it's worth popping into St Nicholas's Market where the bakery stall was far too tempting, the variation of food and cultures under one roof was quite something.   
One thing that's quite apparent is that were definitely a food orientated family, nothing is better than finding a nice cafe or restaurant regardless of if were on holiday or not.
It was quite nice to pay a bit more attention to the interior of different shops and cafes, I'm going to try and do similar posts to this but around Newcastle a bit more. There's definitely a few hidden places that need a bit more recognition for the quality of food they serve.

I've also added a couple more photos and an Interior page over on my photography website & Facebook page, so feel free to check them out!

INSTAGRAM

Little update as I haven't posted in a couple of days because I've been away, and everyone knows how much I love a bit of Instagram.
I took a trip down to Bristol to see some family and generally explore the city last week and I've took plenty of photos, so expect a post coming up in the next few days. I was obviously camera happy as always and I'm trying to work out the best way to share the images with you, hopefully it'll all work out. 
Anyway, heres a peek of what I've been up to and although its nice to be away I love being home. Exciting few weeks ahead are planned!

DECOR


Moving into a new house next year is making me all excited with different home DIY ideas and ways to organise my room. It definitely won't look as nice as my Pinterest board but I'll still be getting excited either way. This little mood board contains a few images that I'm using as inspiration for next year and years to come.

Forgive me for my lack of posts the next week also, I'm off on a family holiday to Bristol so I won't have my laptop to make any posts and I'll be pretty busy. Im going to take my camera however so expect a couple of interesting blog posts once I get back. I have some new shoots planned too, exciting!

FESTIVALS

Seeing as it's summer that always means theres a few more music festivals around this time of year. I've been to some in the past (T in the Park a few times) and I'm off to Creamfields in August, as I feel like I have a bit of knowledge I'm going to list off a couple of things to remember to bring. Plus, it'll act as a little check list for myself next month!

- Tent
- Bag
- Toiletries (toothbrush, comb, dry shampoo, hairspray, SPF, toothpaste & deodorant)
- Clothes (Shorts & Rain Coat are always a good combo)
- Food & Drink (snacks & wine more than likely...)
- Plastic cups
- Wet wipes & antibacterial gel
- Festival / bus / train tickets
- Phone
- Wallet & money

That's pretty much everything I normally take, always try to pack as light as possible as normally there's a trek to the campsite when arriving and leaving. The first year I went to T in the Park I brought twice as much and barely used anything, it just added to the pain of having to drag it all back again covered head to toe in mud and not feeling too good after a glass of wine too many!

WEBSITE & FACEBOOK

I'm not sure if you have ever noticed but photography has always been a big part of my blog, something I've always enjoyed and found interesting. Over the past two years or so it has become more apparent that it is going to be something I will always enjoy doing and be a form of inspiration.
While Im studying Fashion Communication I've also decided to have a go at setting up my own photography website, initially it's going to be something to share the work I have created amongst others and use it as a creative outlet. Alongside this blog, of course.
I can't lie though, in the future I would love to think of it being a form of income regardless of how big or small.

Anyway, long story short. I'm going to leave links to both my website & photography Facebook page so feel free to have a browse, leave any feedback or even give it a like.

Thankyou!
