"Love is not a maybe thing, you know when you love someone" - Lauren Conrad

Edwin McCain  -  I'll be

The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath.
And emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky
Never revealing their depth.
Tell me that we belong together,
Dress it up with the trappings of love.
I'll be captivated,
I'll hang from your lips,
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above.

[Chorus:]
I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older,
I'll be the greatest fan of your life.

And rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed.
You're my survival, you're my living proof.
My love is alive -- not dead.
Tell me that we belong together.
Dress it up with the trappings of love.
I'll be captivated,
I'll hang from your lips,
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

[Chorus]

And I've dropped out, I've burned up, I've fought my way back from the dead.
I've tuned in, turned on, remembered the things that you said

[Chorus:]
I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older,
I'll be the greatest fan of your...
I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older,
I'll be the greatest fan of your life.

The greatest fan of your life.
...greatest fan of your life.

"Nothing matters more than life and the love you make" - Coldplay

Hello,

Recently, I was lucky enough to watch Coldplay perform live in Johannesburg, South Africa and managed to take some pictures during the show. I have been a Coldplay fan for a while and love their music. Watching them live was amazing and life changing. Like Hans Erskog once told his daughter who then preached it to me (somewhere along these lines) "You get BC and AC - before Coldplay and after Coldplay" I am proud and happy to say I now live in AC, with the thousands of other fans that watched their show around the world! The songs that touched my heart were: Fix You, Viva la Vida, The Hardest Part, Lost, Clocks, Life in Technicolour, The Scientist, Speed of Sound, Wait for me and their new hit, which the Jo'burg show features in, Paradise!!! It was an unforgettable experience and cannot wait for another opportunity to watch them live again.

There are just too many pictures to display them all individually, so I have made collages with the best shots I got. Hope you love the pictures as much as I do

xoxo

 The fireworks at the beginning and end of the show!

It's blue and black - with a hint of silver.










Hello,

Here are more pictures I took of Andrea, only this time, I decided to edit them more than what I normally do. Since her outfit is not seen in all the pictures, I shall tell you what she was wearing - her outfit was made up of a loose black blouse, mini jean shorts, heels and jewellery.

I present to you Outfit # 2 - hope you like it!

Top Shots!








Hello

From all I pictures I took of Dee, these were my favourites!

Pose for the camera: now --> click--click--click








Hello

Well, it has been a long time since I last posted something. In this time of absence, I have been taking photos and learning a lot from friends and research i've done. I was invited by my friend Fiona to take pictures of our friend Dee who needed a portfolio for her modelling. It was a lot of fun doing the photo shoot and it allowed me to learn a lot of things about taking photos, common mistakes I make and how to criticise pictures and what is considered a good photo. With Dee's permission, here are some photos that i took of her and slightly edited :) Hope you like them as much as I do!

xoxo
