AJ POINT AND SHOOT

On the 26th of July, we embraced the heat and embarked on a Journey to Manchester to go and see Elliot's favourite band: Bilmuri. I was nervous as we started the day with the heat; it was already heating up in Hull, and we were dreading the train! I really needed a bit of replenishment when we got to the station, so I headed to Starbucks for an Iced Chai Latte. Ordered, and the grumpiest Barista handed me a hot one. I said, "I'm sorry I ordered this iced?" She actually ROLLED

The full album from Anna's Hen do including a video of the main event: Bring your own board! In your chosen colour, of course. Swipe through to check out the content from my first event, and here's to the big day coming up in August! And of course, the photos, the moments, the joy. Step into my lens.

The other weekend, to finish off the celebrations of Hull Refugee Week (Which is celebrating 75 years since the landmark Refugee Convention agreement), an international food festival took place in Pearson's Park down Princes Avenue. I really wanted to attend, having missed out on other events of the festival due to work. It was running from 12 until 6pm, and boasted being a family, free event, with food stalls, merch stalls and other items. For the Kids, there was also face p

A quiet Sunday is the opportune moment to take the time to go somewhere peaceful. At the moment, this place for me is Setting Dyke, it's a local green space that isn't far from home, but it's quiet and takes you away from the estate of houses and into nature. Elliot and I like to take our dog Kas here; he loves to frolick through the grass and explore the various nooks and crannies in the trees. It's nice when we don't have any major plans to have somewhere to go nearby to ge

I was absolutely buzzing when I found out the Moomin exhibition was coming to Ferens Art Gallery in Hull! But let's pause on that before we get into it. I just wanted to talk about Ferens Art Gallery itself quickly. The gallery has a wide array of pieces from late medieval painting to modern art and boasts having one of the UK’s finest art collections here in the heart of Hull city centre. They are currently collecting entries for the Young Artists Exhibition, for budding you

Last month, my partner and I, went to visit my sister and her partner for the first time this year! We were excited, my sister always has fantastic plans, this was the first time I was taking a camera with me, and I felt excited for the prospect of the snaps I'd take and the cool things we would see! Usually, when we head down to Brighton, we get lucky with the sun. On one of our last trips, we were swimming in the sea until 9 PM, and it was heavenly. This time, however, the

Let me take you on yet another adventure. We begin in Robin Hood's Bay, with a 21K Challenge ahead of us, again, as on our last walk, following an all-trails route, but this time in an effort to raise money for charity with the company we work for. There is a very small strip of road before you head onto the trail, when you first enter the trail you are greeted with a decision of path, if you take the left, you head right down the cinder track to whitby, but if you take the l

Let me take you on a little adventure! Setting the scene: 8 AM, 11th of April, locking up the house and heading for some travel snacks before we hit the road for the two-hour drive to Malham, it was a gorgeous morning! The weather was holding out, and my friends and I were in good spirits, being very typical with our Starbucks in one hand and a croissant in the other! We arrived at the car park for the route in Malham at around 10 AM. I'd definitely recommend arriving at a si

Wow, it's so crazy. It was an impulse decision in fact to purchase myself a camera. I spent, what? 2 hours researching what was suitable for my needs and my goal. I settled on a compact camera, since I like to go out often and walk I needed something practical with this in mind. I knew nothing about cameras, specs, shutter speeds, frame rates... It felt like an onslaught of overstimulating buzzwords but I have quickly learned there is nothing I enjoy more than pulling out my
