Another day when time has been EATEN UP. But it's been eaten up by important things like watching lambs, editing poetry and gathering photos together for not one but TWO photography publications I'll be putting out this year. However I do have a photo to share from yesterday's shoot with my buddy Ian from Smoggywood… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #37 – Swordstress

100 Days Of Blogging #36 – There’s A Witch In The Forest
Not much for you today folks, I'm afraid. I was out for most of the afternoon being photographed in the forest waving around a sword and trying not to trip over my billowing robes (aka a black, roughed up sheet hoiked up around my waist with a hair tie) and am well and truly knackered.… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #36 – There’s A Witch In The Forest
100 Days Of Blogging #32 – A Gathering Of Dark Art
I let myself do something I haven't done in a LONG time tonight; I went on Pinterest and wandered for a while, collecting darkly inspired art as I went. Before doing so, I thought about the considerable length of time that's gone by since I engraved this blog with dark art from other creatives. Sharing… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #32 – A Gathering Of Dark Art
100 Days Of Blogging #31 – She’s Different, That One
I don't have much to say today because I'm tired. as. fuck. I do, however, have a self-portrait to share from a glorious walk I took this afternoon. I was the only one for miles, so it seemed, and it made me so freaking joyous. I've been feeling 'urgh!' about my figure recently and I'm… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #31 – She’s Different, That One
100 Days Of Blogging #21 – Nordic Cult Folk (Sindri)
I was supposed to be writing to you with the second half of my post I'm Happy. What's Changed? But I've just spent two and a bit hours finishing up an interview with a literary legend and I'm tired, So it'll have to wait until tomorrow. Instead I'm going to share with you some images… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #21 – Nordic Cult Folk (Sindri)
100 Days Of Blogging #14 – Nordic Cult Folk (Solveig)
I don't think I've talked much about my Nordic Cult Folk project. (I mentioned it in my 100 Good Things From 2022, but I think that's about it.) It started as a project to photograph folk in Norway wearing bunad/lusekofte and corpse paint. The project has expanded since my initial idea (which I had a few… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #14 – Nordic Cult Folk (Solveig)
100 Days Of Blogging #13 – I Was Up At 5.30Am To Shoot My Friend
The last time I was up at such a cruel hour was when I waited overnight at Manchester Airport for a flight to Iceland. It was the same as before that…and the time before that. (Hell, EasyJet, PLEASE CHANGE YOUR GODDAMN FLIGHT TIMES. I can't while away another night in the bleakest airport ever built.)… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #13 – I Was Up At 5.30Am To Shoot My Friend
100 Days Of Blogging #10 – A Moor Of Her Own
I went up into the hills today. It was unseasonably sunny, so not ideal photo weather…but I was feeling inspired as fuck and couldn’t stay inside. I was expecting to see HORDES of walkers on my wanderings because of the summer-like weather in winter. But, to my absolute delight, I saw not a soul. It… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #10 – A Moor Of Her Own
100 Days Of Blogging #5 – She Creeps
I like to make props for my photography. These self-portraits are from a couple of years ago (though just edited for the first time the other night) and feature some demonic fingers I crafted using silver foil, masking tape and black paint. These fingers were some of the first props I made and while I've… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #5 – She Creeps
100 Days Of Blogging #2 – I Did That My Heritage AI Time Machine Thing
I'm not usually one for fads, but when I caught word of the new My Heritage AI Time Machine, I couldn't pass up on it. I tried, I did, but the idea of 'seeing myself' in different historical eras eventually succeeded in seducing me during one slow-paced midweek afternoon. I hesitated for a few minutes… Continue reading 100 Days Of Blogging #2 – I Did That My Heritage AI Time Machine Thing
