Developing myself one captured moment at a time.

Well at least it is Thursday and tomorrow is half day Friday. As I sit here and think of things I am not sure what is going on any more or what way I need to go in anymore. Just when you think you are back and things might go good life throws you in a totally different direction in which you never thought that you would go into again. Today I got told that I was to move back to the place where I started working when I first arrived at the mine. I cannot tell you what I am thinking if it is good or what but I feel like on this mine I am a chess piece that they can move around until I am not longer needed and pushed out to another direction. Or taken out by something greater than myself and I sit on the side as I watch the rest of the game being played out without me. I am just tired of being moved around so much I want to be in a place where I get the chance to work my way up instead of work my way around. I mean in a way it is a good thing that people see my work and recommend...

Now that we have our own photo shoot coming up I am rather excited and nervous at the same time wonder if my clients ever feel this away as well? Willem at least got himself some nice clothes men really have it easy. At least I found something to wear that matches his and all that maybe it is just us woman that makes things more complicated than they need to be. Yeah that sounds about right. But any way so I was looking up some examples of what couples where and what not and I came across this other woman’s blog who also has a YouTube page and she has made a pretty good name for herself out there. And when you look at her blog and all you understand why. Her blog is: www. simplymarlena.com So as I was going through her blog I came across this post and I love it want to get this printed and placed on my wall for an everyday reminder! How to Love Yourself and Feel 100% Beautiful Hi beautiful makeup geeks! This blog post is a different one for me- a very personal message to e...

I waited so long for Sunday little did I Forget that Monday was close around the corner again. The weekend was good just chilled and counted down the days and hours and minutes to Willems arrival. Saturday I spend most of the day editing and rested by watching TV then edited again, and when I push myself I can get pretty far. I love the feeling of editing amazing pictures and the results end up looking amazing. Sunday came and time just went by slow I tried to keep myself busy but my inner self was super excited and couldn’t help but look at the clock and see that only one minute went by, The whole day I was on edge like I was expecting him to surprise me any second like he normally does yet nothing when I want him to he doesn’t hahaha, but when I got that call from him saying he will be here in 8 Minutes I was like a child who just had 7 pounds of candy and don’t know what to do with the sugar rush I have at the moment. When I saw his car drive in I was happy, he is here safe a...

What a week. I am actaully like as in emotionally tiered. First Monday morning i get a great call from Willem saying that he gets to leave work on Thursday at 12, then later on that evening they tell him his leave is going to be moved. so we had to wait until Lunch time Tuesday to hear when he will be on leave, so they told him that he will now final dat have leave from the 21 July - 6 August. So Sunday he arrives after work and how slow this week has been going i dont even want to think how slow Sunday will go for him to finally arrive the waiting and waiting hahaha not my fave part! Looks like this might be my shortest post yet! But i am sure from the weekend and all i have a few to say with further edits and to finally start my photo project! Have a great weekend every one i know i will!

Sunday 14 July 2013, I was lucky enough to have taken the pictures of the lovely couple Sone and Wesley who have been together for 3 years now. Congratulations you two! With Kriel there is not really much places to do a photo shoot and with the winter added that kind of kills every living colorful plant makes it an added challenge. But we ended up finding 2 wonderful locations that I think we used really well. I met the couple at the Rugby field sadly it was half taken over by the Soccer guys but we used the space we had, with an open field and props we had fun and got good pictures, then we went to the old swimming pool for the second half of the shoot I love this place as it has really nice old effects even though you never know how safe it is there and who might be there but luckily we were all clear and ready for action. They brought along the powder paint that I have been searching so long for and I was dying to do a photo shoot with it and it was my lucky day as they had and...

It was a really good weekend Friday got the news that Retha and the kiddies will be coming through Saturday for a visit I love having them over and I swear every time I see them they getting bigger. Friday just chilled was super lazy after a crazy day at work. Saturday my mother and I ventured off into town and shopped like we were paid to do so and painted Kriel red. It’s weird how they have specials on winter clothes and yet it is just getting colder but hey I’m not complaining as I get to save more. Even though I seem to spend more, any way we started off at Wimpy I love our mother daughter moments like this just knowing that I can sit down with my mother and talk to her about absolutely anything makes me feel so at ease. I love having her there for me and helping me with ideas and all that, THANK YOU mommy, I LOVE YOU! Then we shopped I finally found boots in my size the ones I wanted but at that time they didn’t have my size so I was over the moon happy about that. Got a few ni...

These weeks really seem like they just go slower and slower, I am just hoping that next week goes fast and then the week after that it goes slow again. Yes I know looking at it we never happy with how things are going. Just trying to get that moment here and want to make it last. I know with Willems job it is really hard to set definite plans as to what you guys can do and where and with who. I was talking to my cousin’s girl friend who is in the same boat at me with the distance but he gets off every now and then. At least when Willem is off it’s for a week so in a way makes up lost time. Any way we both said its hard as at times you would like to have him meet your friends and family and you in a way plan a braai or get together and as Mother nature or the Universe would have it something has to happen and it changes. So that’s where my question lies should be plan and hope it works out or just go with flow, I have learnt and still forcing myself to remember to go with the flow ...
