Freelance photographer - imagethirst/venture style shoot

Hi, I am (desperately) looking for a photographer who can do a studio shoot in the "imagethirst" or "venture" style. I would be really grateful for a recommendation as I would like a shoot done before my youngest starts crawling - which is imminent! Thanks in advance!

Re: Anyone have a quooker?

I love my quooker, truly. Particularly at 3am when i am warming up a bottle, or when crowds come round for tea or when i am cooking. In fact i now could not live without a quooker. When i go to my parents' house, waiting for the kettle drives me mad! Get it, you will never look back!!!

Re: Is Crumpet Northcote Rd closing?

I used to be a regular of Crumpet Bellevue and I totally agree that it has gone downhill and is now pretty awful. It's fine when they are not busy, but on a busy day, the staff are completely over-stretched and as a consequence, are rude. The food is super expensive, and has gone downhill (eg they n...

My decision to change consultants was nothing to do with ability/competency, but as some of the other mums have said, bedside manner. This time round I wanted somebody who was a bit mo...

Re: Architect recommendations wanted

Can your builder not recommend an architect? The bonus being they would have worked together before and it will in theory go more smoothly.
We did a whole house refurb last year and our builder and architect had a good relationship which made a very positive difference.

Re: Marmalade Caterpillar vs Bertrum House

I'm sorry i can't give you views on the two you mentioned, but I am also going crazy with the decision. I know it's only nursery school and not "proper" school but I can't decide either - between Parkgate and the Roche.
