Aloha everyone,

as some of you might have noticed, I uploaded some pictures of my vacation in Croatia. I had a lovely stay on the island Hvar. As it was the slow season I could not do everything I originally planned, but it was nice, nevertheless. I honestly would not like to know how this island feels in summer with big boats, bringing in the tourists. It was quiter like this, and I liked it.

Next year, I have a big trip planned. I am not ready to share more information yet, but it will be a 3 week trip. Visiting 2 countries and mostly camping. I am so excited already, you would think the trip will start next week

In the next weeks I will upload some more photos of my short trip to Budapest at the beginning of the year. I am finally getting around to making a photo book of that trip and thus would have the pictures ready to show them to you as well.

Website updates are scarce at the moment but as in previous years the updates will come. I am quite more active on instagram these days. So if you are interested to see what I'm up too, kindly follow me their. But beware, its quite a mix of photographs, paintings and drawings.

Wishing you all wonderful time.

Update, 16 May 2017 - I'm blown away

Thank you so so much for featuring my photo. This comes so wonderfully unexpected




Aloha everyone,

here we go again. I forgot to upload for so long, that I have now tonnes of images to upload. Please bear with me. If you don't want to see all of them, just delete the stack of photos But I hope you will like them nevertheless. There will be shots from all the seasons as well as fun shots between "serious" photography, as somebody once told me. This somebody told me, that I should not show any fun shots, if I try to get into business. Well, as I like to take photos nearly on every occasion, of course there are fun shots! And why not share them with a bunch of people who might like them too? So here we go. Serious shots and fun shots. If you like, leave a comment, otherwise, just enjoy

Two times I've been given a core membereship. Maybe I will get to do more with it this time.
Thank you so much, and of - Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!

...on my last journal. I really appreciate it and as most of you put it: its all in the balance. Do want you like and not what you have to. I wish this would always be that simple! So, as you see: I'm still here! And as you might have seen with my recent uploads, it weren't photographs. This will change again, but I wanted to share the things I do with you and I started doodeling - or zentangle - end of last year and really enjoy it. I'm using those designs as well for wedding invitations. I was asked by some couples where I'll be photographing the wedding, if I would like to give a hand here and its quite fun, although its hard work and I notice that there really is a need for a training in this field.  

I'm looking forward to four weddings this year and several portrait sessions. Doing that and a 40h job per week feels sometimes draining, but when you see the smile on the others faces its also rewarding .

I hope to share some wedding shots with you soon and I have some more sweet kitties for you as well

I really hope 2016 works out for me. Keeping my fingers crossed.

All the best to you,
Benita
