rodents beware!
2008-06-06 14:43:00 Shai the demon kitty strikes again. For the last couple of weeks, we’ve been hearing a scuffling noise coming from our kitchen. D pulled the fridge out and took the bottom panel off from under the over, but we couldn’t find anything. Both cats were totally obsessed with that particular area though, ...

are your balls wet?
2008-06-06 00:02:00 Then get yourself a set of Dryer Balls ! I saw JML Dryer Balls (a completely non-testicular product, despite the misleading name) in a shop recently and my mind was instantly flooded with catchy advertising slogans. Apparently they’re little thingies that you put in your tumble dryer to soften the laundry and remove creases and wrinkles, ...

suck on this
2008-05-17 22:00:00 Out of all the adverts on tv in the UK that are unintentionally amusing, my current favourite has to be for Apatamil baby formula. Check this out for quality wordage… Breastmilk is perfect for your baby. Nothing compares to it. It strengthens your baby’s natural defences and reduces the risk of infection. How ...

pola-licious
2008-05-14 14:58:00 So I finally got around to scanning the photos I took with Niki’s old polaroid camera and uploading them. I heart polas. Nothing to do with photography, but why doesn’t someone make scissors that work just as well in either hand? I was cutting my nails today cause they’d reached the point where filing ...
for your wall
2008-05-13 17:48:00 I’ve been shooting a lot of stuff with lights and flash lately, and felt like doing something a bit different so I broke out the 1600ISO and had some grainy black and white fun (above). I’ve also set up print sales through Fotki. All photos are professionally printed in and dispatched from the USA. You ... More About: Wall
so far, so good
2008-05-07 19:57:00 A few days into the amitriptyline and all is going well. I’m sleeping a lot better, without waking up every four hours needing more painkillers. This is fucking amazing. There needs to be a better word than amazing to describe it. Fabilicious, maybe. I’ve still needed to take my normal ... More About: Good

one more little pill
2008-05-02 22:58:00 I actually went to the doctor today. Oh yes, I did. I made the appointment last Monday, spent all week having thought-convulsions over it, took over an hour to get dressed this morning cause I was freaking out so hard and almost didn’t go, but I trailed myself round there and did it. ...

jilted brides and orange knickers
2008-04-29 22:37:00 I had a couple of really great shoots last week. Ashley Higgins of AH Artistry turned burlesque beauty Lacey Demure into a suicidal jilted bride, complete with slashed wrists (and a severed head!) and we got messy and scary outside for an afternoon. Then Bambi Graves took a break from taking a break ... More About: Brides , Orange , Knickers
keep off the grass
2008-04-22 14:43:00 Rocky is an absolutely gorgeous Chinchilla Persian cat who has had a hard life. He was abandoned (or lost, no-one knows) by his original family and spent months wandering the streets until he was picked up by a nice person and brought to see a vet. That vet is my best friend Lisa. She did her ... More About: Grass

2008-04-21 13:07:00 I had a fab afternoon shooting with Pixie Dust last week, playing with ballet shoes, modern pin-up and lots of blood and gore. You can see all the shoots on ViolentlyBeautiful.com (the shoots are called En Pointe, Pin-Up Chick and Ritual).

the boys done good
2008-04-13 16:47:00 I wrote a blog entry a while back about Story About The Boy, a seriously wonderful Scottish indie/rock/country band I shot some photos for…and just got the loveliest update from them. They’ve been signed (to Better Than This records) and have been selling like crazy on iTunes. I’m very bouncy to see the ... More About: Good , Boys , The Boys
break me out, i?m ready to go
2008-04-10 00:02:00 I’m addicted to Prison Break . It has been raising my blood pressure and keeping me up til 4am (just one more episode, THEN I’ll go to bed) for the last week, and now I’m in a state of uncomfortable suspense waiting til fuck knows when for the next season to arrive. It’s teaching me worrying ... More About: Ready

Yelena is big into sexy vampires and film and is currently combining the two passions and writing a film about sexy vampires (other films she’s been involved with have shown at festivals all over the world). The amazing make-up ... More About: Angel , Diva
small squares of happiness
2008-03-31 22:16:00 How chuffed am I? Very! And why? Because I have an old Polaroid camera to play with. Yay! That’s it up there, in that dodgy phone cam shot. I have a big grin on my face, hiding behind the camera. Thank you to Niki for not only lending ... More About: Happiness , Small
recharging
2008-03-29 23:53:00 After being without laptop for a couple of weeks, I’m finally back online properly! My cat pissed on the magsafe end of my macbook charger a while back. I thought I’d cleaned it completely, but then when I plugged it in, it got really hot and the wires fried. The laptop itself ...
ebay just got sexy!
2008-03-23 21:11:00 I’ve just joined eBay (nothing to do with wanting to buy lots of imported Hello Kitty accessories…honest!) and I’m selling a selection of my photos there. These photos are professionally printed on glossy photo paper, come in a variety of sizes and are printed in and dispatched from the UK. The ... More About: Ebay , Sexy
what keeps things moving forward
2008-03-13 01:58:00 Before, in my past life, when my body did what it was told and valiantly put up with all the shit I did to it, I would have these moments of thinking “I’m fat. It’s wrong” and then I would obsessively start doing something about it. The moments got longer and longer until they became ... More About: Moving , Things , Forward
myspace being considerably better
2008-03-03 16:59:00 After the last entry I wrote (and the unexpected and bizarre comment from Mr Tom Anderson) it is now possible to click on a link on my MySpace profile to ViolentlyBeautiful.com and actually get to the page. There is MySpace’s warning page for off-site links, but no untrue nastiness about spam, viruses or phishing. ... More About: Myspace
myspace being useless
2008-02-28 00:18:00 Grr! The other day I added a link to ViolentlyBeautiful.com to my MySpace profile (I use MySpace as a marketing tool rather than for social networking cause while it’s useful, its not something that appeals to me on any other level) and sent out a bulletin to let my friends know about the launch ...

how to look ten years younger, and why not to bother
2008-02-17 20:26:00 I hate terms like ‘body acceptance’ and ‘positive self image’. They wrap up the immense complexity of a person’s ever-changing feelings about themselves in faux-feminist psychobabble buzzwords and using them makes me feel like an advert for something expensive that doesn’t really work. Expressions like ‘anti-aging’ or even ‘pro-age’ (sorry Dove, but your ... More About: Kate Moss , Years

aren?t we all real women?
2008-02-04 00:55:00 Why all the pictures of women? They’re not from recent photoshoots (actually, a few of them are, but not all), there’s no common theme running through the photos (apart from all the models looking totally gorgeous), they’re not all fashion photos, fetish photos, spontaneous backstage pictures (although there ...

child free, thank you very much
2008-01-26 11:05:00 A friend recently gave me this book to read. I was bored senseless from having my internet usage limited by the stupid splint I have to wear on my hand (which I have since beaten into submission, hence my returned typing ability) and wanted new reading material to amuse me.
