Irene Suchocki

I have recently discovered the extremely talented Irene Suchocki.  She lives in Montreal and works as a freelance photographer,  capturing a range of subjects from cities and landscapes to flowers and trees.

Her pictures are amazing with great composition and colour, I especially like the Venice and Paris collections.

I found it really hard to pick which  to show as there are so many gorgeous ones so have chosen a random bunch.  You can find more images here...

Seaside Blues

I am originally from Scarborough, a delightful, picturesque seaside town on the east coast.  I visit most weekends as this is where my long distance boyfriend lives (what's 116 miles between lovers?!?)

I just love it and am desperate to move back there, ideally in a lovely whitewashed cottage in the old town, above the harbour, with sea views and seagulls!

I have designed some pictures depicting Scarborough which I have given to friends over the years as gifts, hope you like them and it might tempt you to pay a visit...

Hipstamatic camera app

I don't remember life before the iphone.  Long silences and staring out of windows is a thing of the past!

I recently discovered the Hipstamatic Camera app.  It allows you to take retro style photos with a choice of different lenses, films and flashes.  It takes a bit of getting used to which does what, but that's all part of the fun.

Here are some random pictures I have taken, sorry I can't tell you which settings I used!?!

Wedding Inspiration boards

I love wedding blogs, I have planned my wedding a hundred times in my head, I change my theme every time I see a new image, dress or colour palette.  Now you can put all your ideas in one place.

Style me pretty has always been one of my favourite wedding blogs but I have only just discovered build a board.  This is where you have access to 1000s of amazing wedding images of cakes, dresses, flowers etc and you can create these amazing inspiration boards using their templates and they look really professional.  They are then posted on the sight for others to view and comment or you can just keep them to yourself.

Perfect if you're planning your wedding and need some ideas. Here are some I created, and you can view all of mine here

Vintage cards

Thought I'd start by showing you a couple of designs I have been working on for greetings cards.  They are for my own "Rankidoodle" range I am developing to sell at some upcoming craft fairs.  They will be printed on matt card and have add ons like bows and buttons.
