So I’ve been a kinda quiet lately. Ok, I’ve been completely silent on the blog. I’ll admit it. I got a bit lazy. But that’s not the full story. See, I went to the Blogcademy at the start of the year and I fell in love with blogging…but around about the same time I fell out of love with my blog. We muddled along for a while there, but it just wasn’t really working. For either of us. The chemistry just wasn’t right. The aesthetics of it. The functionality. It just wasn’t…me. So I talked to this super awesome magician lady I know called Melissa Love (ok, so she’s a genius graphic and web designer rather than a magician, but its VERY SIMILAR I’m sure you’ll agree) and we made some plans to bring my blog into line with my website (which she designed for me last year and I still very much love – hopefully you do too?) and then…she set to work but nothing happened for a while at my end. Knowing that this shiny new blog would soon be hitting the intermawebs made me reluctant to post more pretties until they could be displayed bigger, better and more, erm, well more bloody brilliantly. That time is NOW my friends. So prepare yourself for a blog-fest. I have weddings. I have e-shoots. I have a really rather lovely rock the frock. I have THE PHOTOGRAPHY FARM. I have a new brochure to show off. I have gorgeous sample albums to show off. I have beers to rave about and I have oodles of waffle to throw your way. Yes…it’s happening. I’m doing it. I am blogging again. Woo hoo!

The pretty stuff will be coming thick and fast, but I thought I’d start off with a bit of waffle. A salute to my current clothing obsession: the sort of (but not quite) christmassy jumper. It should be noted that I don’t own a proper christmas jumper. Not sure I ever have done. And by that I mean one with santa or reindeer or other festive delights adorning the front. I’m not averse to a proper christmas jumper. But none have called to me so beguilingly that I’ve parted with cash for them. I do, however, have a thing for jumpers with other (always cute, often brightly coloured) designs on the front. This was last year’s favourite from White Stuff – gotta love a sausage dog (and yes, the bum was on the back):

This year I have added three to my wardrobe. And I love them all so very much. The deer came first. A bargainous treat from H&M. Then came the bluetit. A stripey Joules number with a chirpy little fella on the shoulder. In the sale I might add. And then, en route to the till, I couldn’t help but treat myself to Murphy. A jumper with a picture of my own dog on it (seemingly)! How on earth could I resist? Also in the sale. Phew. It’s probably a sign that I’m not as young as I once was, but I think I’d wear Joules all the time if I could afford to. Cuteness overload! I’m already lusting over several more jumpers from the same range…they’re brilliant!

So there you have it. My name is Hannah and I like cute jumpers. *nods*
