Who took part as a stall holder, demonstrator or came a long as a visitor on our Open Day at Boudoir Vous Studio ( http://www.boudoirvous.co.uk/) .  A special thank you and a kiss to Tony, Sadie, Hope, Pippa, Richard, Caz and Mary I couldn’t have done any of it without your help. I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did, had lots of very interesting conversations including suggestions, ideas, offers of support,  and collaboration. I really look forward to seeing what happens next…

Hi, I know I am not brilliant with keeping my blog up to date, it’s something I need to spend more time on! I just wanted to give the people at 15, Queen Street a bit of a shout out. If you don’t know anything about them then you should check out their website or call into their office and meet the lovely Alex Davis who lives on the front desk and will happily give you a tour and tell you a little about what they do. Here is their website: http://www.15queenstreet.org/about

If you are a creative person in your spare time or have turned your hand to starting your own business then they can be a great resource for you. They have lots of different clubs and work shops, get together’s, talks and meet ups where you can mingle and mix with other creatives, pick their brains, share a beer or two and swap details.

If you join as I have as a Flexi member you pay just £15 p/month which entitles you to attend their once a month get together, rental of a room, the opportunity to connect and build relationships with the other members. I went a long yesterday to have my picture taken, and talk about my Boudoir Photography http://boudoirvous.co.uk/ it was windy and rainy so my hair looks like I have a comb over. I really do not like being the other side of the Camera but Alex was very patient with me.

If you have ever wondered about what the studio is like at http://www.boudoirvous.co.uk/ or if you have questions that you would like answered about confidentiality or privacy, or maybe you are just curious to come and have a look and meet myself and my make-up artist. Please join us on our open day, we will be open from 10.30am – 3pm , my make-up artist will be doing a demo in the studio, there will be drinks and nibbles, vintage stalls and chilled tunes. It is RSVP only so please book before hand so we can keep an eye on numbers. We are based on the Hythe Quay, How to find us .

Here’s a few pics of how things looked before the guests arrived. Love the colours used, vintage themes, rustic styles and pretty decoration everywhere. More pics to follow…

Floors of Old a company based in Hertfordshire, asked me to take some  more pics of one of their beautiful floors. They supplied and fitted this floor in the National Portrait Museum Restaurant. I was amazed to see so may landmarks from their windows, lovely staff and nice views worth a look if you are in the area.
