July Update!

I am sitting here on the hottest day on record in the UK blogging... inside, I would like to say it is cooler inside but its so not!!

July has been slightly calmer than April and May and just as well as August is going to be a crazy busy month for me. I am also feeling pretty smug right now as I have just completed my accounts for last year ready to send of to my accountant : )

I have had about five shoots this month here's a behind the scenes snappy of kit craziness.



I received quite a few images in July of past bridal makeup's for these gorgeous gals!

James and I celebrated our seven year wedding anniversary, here's a snap from our honeymoon in beautiful Mauritius six years ago now!  This year we enjoyed a couple of meals at The Giggling squid https://www.gigglingsquid.com/restaurant/harpenden/ local to us in Harpenden and also a very nice Italian tasting menu in London at Luca https://luca.restaurant.



Right I am off for an ice cream and try to cool down... enjoy the summer guys!
