The City of Love?

Recently I've had some post-Paris blues! Although it was this time last year that I returned back to the sometimes gloomy and uninspiring Carlisle, England I've always wanted to head back to the city of love and recently it's all I can think about!

Paris is such a stunning and stimulating city, I was never short on inspiration although I was only there for a few short days. While I was there I started (& have yet to finish) a number of projects; I already shared a project which I began, a typology of the infamous tour carts that litter central Paris with enthused tourists being cycled back and fourth around the countless attractions of the city. 

This is one of the projects that I was inspired to do while I was there.

Best friends & beautiful people

So ... I haven't posted in a while because I've felt really stuck and uninspired photography wise. I know I should be excited & happy because summer is finally here; but everyone has gone home for summer & there is not much to be done in Carlisle.

One of my favourite things to photograph are all of my friends and our everyday life, we're sort of like a little family so when we're all apart and in different places all over the country it makes me sad. Is it possible to be home-sick for your friends? 'Cause I think that's what I have. So I'm just looking over some old photos & missing them all. Beth & Jake included but they're camera shy.

The very beautiful Jess dancing in the park. I am definitely missing spontaneous group days out.

 Mitch loving himself & thinking he's the Don of the skatepark. We both hate & love him all at once.

 Mitch, Pete & their mate Dom ... I honestly don't know what they're doing. Freaks.

I am so excited to move into our house in September. Hopefully then I will be feeling more inspired! I miss them all so much, it just feels weird when there's just a couple of us together. Jess always jokes that we're like F.R.I.E.N.D.S ... but we really are! Everyone is so different but that's what makes us work so well. We love & loathe each other & it's in a completely functional way!
