I got my hair cut today. I’ve been grumbling about it for a while, but finally went for it. It looks like this:

I don’t really have much else to update at the moment, other than the fact that I’m on Twitter. I’ve had an account for a while, but only just started using it, so go add me! My username is Kirstylegg.

See you later!

I have decided to update the look of the website a little by including a blog section. I need a place where I can rant and share, and what is the point in having your own little corner of webspace if you can’t realise its true potential

I have just returned from Tignes les Brevieres in France, where I spent a week skiing for the first time in my life. I went with my boyfriend and his family, a total party of 16! We had a great time, and I took more than a couple of photos. I was too frightened to take my camera with me while skiing just in case I fell over and crushed my shiny toys, but we did go around snapping pics on foot wherever possible.

As usual, the rest of my photos can be found on my Flickr Account.

Shortly before I left for France, I purchased a nice new Nikon SB-900 flashgun. I admit I haven’t had much chance to use it other than the average household snaps, but the difference between it and my SB-600 is incredible. It’s a lot bigger, and came packed with little bits and pieces, which I love. I love it when you get a nice new toy, and find that there are even more secrets in the box :p The light power and quality is very good, and the best part is that I can now use the SB-600 and SB-900 remotely off camera along with my studio lights, effectively giving me 4 heads instead of 2!

Shortly before I almost left for France, I did some photos for Missy La La’s Boutique in Crichton Street, Dundee. Missy La La’s is a fab shop, with very original twists on modern fashion at good prices, and there definitely is something for everyone in there, even I found a dress or 10 I wouldn’t mind having :p The models were great, and I hope everyone is happy with the result. I’m still relatively new to anything to do with fashion photography, but I really enjoyed doing something different!

Again the rest of the set can be seen here. I did the make-up for the shoot as well, which was really good fun. For some reason, I’m much better at putting make-up on other people than I am at putting it on myself!

Well that’s about all for now, I hope you like this new bloggy section!
