A new adventure

I haven’t been around in a while and I do apologise, I have been quite busy. With what? Yes, I can hear you asking and my answer is with this:

SNAPS AND SHOOTS

I decided to launch my very own “business”. It is something that I have been wanting to do for a while now, but finally decided that enough was enough and I would launch it… I have decided to focus on:

  • Kiddies shoots;
  • Family shoots;
  • Matric Farewells;
  • Engagement shoots;
  • Corporate functions;
  • Family reunion; and
  • the odd wedding or two.

I will offer various shoots at various locations and I will cater for couples, friends, groups, families, pets and so much more.

You will see by my opening specials that I am not as expensive as other photographers out there and well, I will run with it for a few months and see how it goes. I do hope for the best where all this is concerned.

Anyways, so if I am really quiet, you all will know where to find me. You are all welcome to pop on over to the site (which will get more and more posts as time goes on) and say hi. I will be finishing the facebook page tonight so you can pop over there too. I’ll post the link as soon as I have it.

Take care and chat soon,

Selfies at the memorial…

So, I found a link on the ENCA blog which I thought I had to share…

It has photos of people taking selfies of themselves at Madiba’s Memorial.

All I am saying is check out Michelle Obama’s face on these pics… LOL!

Even though it was reported that she was less thank please with Barack, the photographer says something different here.

Enjoy your Thursday further.

The apology maybe?

This morning…

I started writing this blog at home earlier this morning:

I am at home this morning, waiting for the handy man to come fix a few things here at the house. He is late… said he was going to be here at 09:00. I have to be at work by 13:00, so you can just see how this is going to work out hey? I have just asked my mother to call our rental agency and tell them that if he gets here at 12:00 I will not be letting him in as our helper leaves at 13:00.

So, while I am waiting, I have finalised my assignment for my graphic design course, three days early. Which is a bit odd for me, but now I can just take it easy this weekend, well not easy as I have a list of things to do that’s as long as my arm. No rest for the wicked and all that. One thing I must do is to fix my Mom’s bookcase, I also need to do some gardening (as our helper is non-existent at the moment) and then go shopping for cake ingredients. My Mom has an order for 250 tarts and cupcakes for next Saturday. So guess who will be icing cupcakes next Friday night? Our little business is not going too badly and soon I’ll be able to advertise my design and photography with the catering as well.

It has been really busy at work because of deadlines.

That’s where the blog ended, because I received a phone call telling me that the handy man was pulled off by the traffic police. He had unpaid parking tickets and would be detained until those were paid. I used some very foul language as I hopped into my car and drove to work.

I am now finishing this post at work.

So, as I said, work has been really busy. Yes, it has been deadline week and in all that I have had no time to think about anything else. I have been working every night and I have not even had time to play with my new toy.

Before you go thinking dirty things, let me just explain that my new toy is my new Nikon D 5100 .

Yes, you read right, I took the plunge and bought myself a new DSLR camera. I still cannot believe that I spent so much money on myself and it is still in its box after I bought it on Sunday. I only opened the box to get the manual out. I want to first make sure I know my new toy before I start playing with it. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning and personally, I think I bought myself a wonderful camera, with lots of functions and I got a lot of extras in the bundle I bought so this will keep me busy for hours. My plan is to in the near future, create a home studio and make a business of what I love doing. Although I am first going to do my homework on that. This weekend I plan to play and register my warranty and call for the free training. 🙂

Anyways, I have work to do now, seeing that I was so late… but before I go…
