The Creative Experience - Dubai 2019

The Creative Experience - Dubai 2019

Exactly one month ago I created this picture at The Creative Experience where Pratik and I, along with our good friends Andrea and Amanda Belluso, and Viktor Anderson hosted an incredible 5 days full of photography, creativity and business conversations, and self empowerment. Yes it was awesome and I’ll go into what the Creative Experience was about later in this post but let’s take a moment to talk about this picture. It’s one of my favourites as it’s created outside of my comfort zone. Exactly where you want to be as an artist :) …

Creating 'Eden'

Creating 'Eden'

Living in England the beauty of unfurling life in March is a striking thing. Warm breezes carrying with it sweet scents of new life. With each image I want to share my love of life, spring, and nature with you.

As I was on a walk with P a few days ago, we passed a patch of wild flowers that I'd created in last year. How a year has past since then is beyond me! So much has happened, so much to catch up on... so, here's me making a small start…

a new year, a new journal & new resolutions!

After deliberating and talking about a new space for my blog for over a year, with the start of a new year comes new life resolutions and one of mine is to finally start doing everything I've been putting off and to give Passion a go.

At the end of last year I made the decision to leave architecture and commit full time to photography and all the things that I've wanted to do (but never found the time to).  It's a scary decision but I'm hoping that with a positive attitude, hard work and lots of self motivation anything is possible. We're only here temporarily and I couldn't waste another minute feeling as though I wasn't doing what my heart drives me to do.

This year is going to be exciting. It's the year that I'm going to give everything I've ever wanted to do a go! I'm not going to let my nerves or self consciousness hold me back nor think or worry about failure. I will battle negative thoughts with bright positive light! No one can make our dreams come true but us right? ;)
