Photography Lessons

For a while I’ve been wishing I could get more use out of our camera, instead of just relying on my mobile to take photographs. A few weeks ago I asked the very lovely Andrea of Andrea Thornton Photography to help me out with a bit of tuition. There are 2 main reasons that I felt it was important to do this. Firstly so that I can take better photographs of my work and secondly so that I can take better photos for use as inspiration for my work.

After spending a little time with Andrea I feel more confident and have made a start on creating some better quality images.

Looking for inspiration I went into the garden on a sunny September day.

And there was more than enough on a sunny day in Barcelona last week!!!

Now that I’m back from Barcelona it’s time to photograph the rest of my cushions and hopefully do some work on the website so that some of my knitting kits should be available to buy online very soon 🙂
