Nakitt
A tale of love conquering the whole world…

Today was warm and golden. Woke up to the sound of church bells and birds singing, it felt like summer. I have never loved like I have loved today, I felt so free and young. And it has been too long since I have felt that way. I took a million photographs. I mean a million. But it felt great to get my finger on that shutter again. I can’t stop taking photographs, everything is so inspirational today, even the songs on the radio are filling my mind with snapshots, sounds, smells, everything!

I have put some out-takes and final images below for your viewing pleasure. I hope they’re alright. I felt we needed some new Nakitt shots together. Especially as life is so becoming so busy for us, it’s always great to get to take photographs and spend that time we would otherwise miss. <3

And now I’m off to watch Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It looks highly good. [:

I had a photo shoot on Monday which was absolutely beautiful. It felt so good to meet someone so fresh into the modelling World. We had a wonderful time and it was great to just run around between trees and both be so passionate about the images we were creating. I hope she makes it, she was so beautiful and the fashion World is missing out on a lot without her. I made a flower band for her ginger locks and she lay in puddle water for me and was the most willing girl I’ve ever worked with. [: I’m still editing away all the shots which I am so thrilled with.

I have another shoot on the 19th which I’m most excited about. I need to scout some locations and gather outfits together. But as always, I’m keeping it very hush-hush so no one can steal my ideas. People have been doing that lately, and it’s not cool. Anyway, the hat for it arrived today from the US, so now it’s just down to me collecting a few more props and it’ll all be ready to go. I’m super stoked.

And even though they don’t need an introduction, I cannot recommend this album highly enough. It’s full of that Summer tune feeling, and seeing as it hasn’t stopped being so sunny for the past 4 days, it’s a great vibe to feel. Give them a listen.

Speaking of music, I recently discovered someone with the same initials as I. His name is Kyle Galanaugh, I know, weird how similar his name is to mine?! Gallannaugh and Galanaugh?! Spookily cool! Anyway, I stumbled upon his music by accident not that long ago and I was instantly hooked. He asked me to spread the news of his music, so I suggest you go and give it a listen here. It’s like the love-child of Coldplay and U2 and is so, so beautiful.

That is all from me today. Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine. That was one hell of a Winter and now we can all crawl outside again and enjoy the World again! [:

Just a few of my most recent photographs. [:

I’ve been quiet lately. Too quiet. My camera has remained snuggled in it’s cosy bag and I have felt starved of inspiration. The rain everyday, the constant cloud and the coldness has kept me inside as nothing is inspiring any more about the weather. It was such a mild Winter and now it’s nearly Spring and it’s even colder than before and it rains everyday. I am planning shoots for March so I can dip my toes back into the photographic pool, so I hope that it will be a sunny Spring. I’d like to imagine it’ll be slightly better by then.

Things have been good.

I have a Tumblr account which I actually use now and I’m becoming more and more addicted to it. It’s just a little place for my mind to wander and to gain all my inspiration into one area. I don’t really have a particular theme, it’s all over the place. But I hope I can make it into a little den of motivation for others to stumble across too.

I just want to slow life down. This week has already gone too fast for my liking and it’s freaking me out slightly. I like it fast though, it’s exciting. When we move into our flat I shall be buying a rabbit no matter what. I need a little pet to look after and photograph and give me inspiration, and I just happen to love rabbits. I used to have a pet one as a kid but she died when I was 7 and I was broken about it. So I would love to make up for all the years I went without little Thumper and to experience life with a rabbit again. It’ll be a little grey one I think. I’ve been looking up all the different breeds, but I’ll just have to find a local breeder and see what they can sell us. [:

I am so bored right now and I really have nothing much to blog about. My laptop is being sent off to HP tomorrow, and I know it’ll come back even more broken. But I wanted to at least try to get it fixed before the warranty runs out in August. Considering it was £1000, I haven’t been impressed by it’s performance in the slightest and was promised it was one of the best on the market. I hope it comes back better, but I know it’ll just go wrong again and by that stage my warranty will be dead. The life of laptops, ey?!

Anyway, I can smell the yummy supper Nathan has made, so I shall be following the woft of goodness now and call it a day! Ciao!

We had an amazing Valentine’s Day. I won’t say much, no words can really sum it up. Nathan bought me a gorgeous, gorgeous dress. I bought him a vintage style tee and a typography book for his design antics. Everything was perfect. <3

My Valentine’s card to Nay.

Nay making eye-love to his new book.

And pimpin’ his new shirt too. <3

Me with our gingerbread hearts in my little “den”.

Om nom nom nom.

Bright light, bright light!

Me looking a bit drugged.. (I wasn’t)

Cutest florist window display, ever!

Watching bokeh on the hill home.

So the past few days have seen an Internet craze known as “Celebrity Doppelganger Week” where people have replaced their profile images on social networks with a celebrity lookalike. For some reason it is strangely fun and very, very addictive.

Nathan seems to have a Scottish twin known as James McAvoy, the likeness is quite uncanny (and frightening). I think anyone would get them confused in the same room together. On the other hand, I seem to be the love child of Kate Hudson and Blake Lively, so I just chose Kate as her photo was most similar to one of mine.

And now a photo of a close friend, Mr. Tim Evans who seems to have found his doppelganger in the Kiwi – Jemaine Clement. Classic.

That’s all for now. Just felt like having a quick giggle! [:
