Colourful kitties!

We’ve now had the kittens a full year and unbelievably I’ve only just started taking photos of them with film cameras. I have SO many digital photos and videos (see their insta here: garnet.and.pearl) that I don’t really mind and with how much they moved when they were dinky, I think I would have wasted a lot of film haha.

Still - we now have their film photography debut and I’m very excited that they were taken with Dubblefilm’s colourful Jelly film. The colour shifts really make the cats look magical - which is their natural status, so I think its perfect!

Pearl is the white and tabby cat - shes the ruler of the roost, demander of cuddles and destroyer of bugs (primarily woodlice and moths but shes not picky). Garnet is the black and white cat - he is the chaser of lasers, lover of food and best at snuggles <3 I’m not ashamed to say that they’ve totally made my life better. Cats… who knew??

p.s. Garnet is pulling such an interested face as he really liked the sound of the camera shutter, he’s thoroughly investigated all my cameras now hehe. Love him

2018 in Videos

Hello and happy new year!! I’m excited to be back to regular blogging - I’m thinking 2 posts a week - thats manageable isn’t it! So here we go with my first one of 2019.

Although I didn’t really blog that much last year and I used my personal instagram more than my film photography one (you’re following both right?) I have been using the 1 Second Everyday app and documenting the year that way.

And not only have I been using it for myself - but I’ve been making one for everyday that we’ve had with our new kittens too. Their video is my favourite haha! I did say I would put together a proper post introducing them and that is my plan - but for now - Pearl is the white/tabby one and Garnet is her black and white tuxedo cat brother. They have me totally around their little cat paws gahhhh.

I’ve really loved these projects and I definitely think I’ll be continuing for this year (2019!) as well. I share the monthly videos on Instagram - either at my personal account or for the account that I’ve made for the kittens (because I’m now that person ha!) so if you want to see them regularly, definitely follow me on Instagram!

Have you used 1 second everyday to make a video? I’d love to see other peoples videos too as I think they are so fun!
