BEACH DAZE

hola friends

i'm back this sunday with a new post for you all! i love having so many posts to ah post because of the amount of pictures i have! this summer just gone was aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamazing, i freaking love summer it's gotta be my most favourite season. i spent so much of this summer snapping underwater pictures, i love them so so so much, i love the element of surprise because you just have to go underwater and quickly snap some pictures before coming up to the air and you don't know what they'll look like until you get home! my favourite time to take underwater photos is when the sky is blue and reflecting on the water and the waters super clear and blue and ahhh my god so perfect!!

Just before christmas (literally christmas eve eve i think) Jas came round to my house and lucky we live down the street from the beach we walked across and even though it was windy- not really there was a breeze and the water was a tad chilly we braved it and jumped in because geeeez we were very determined to take as many underwater shots as we could!! the water was clear but not as blue so i had to end up editing them a bit but in actual fact i think they turned out ok! they may not be that crystal light blue i love but i still love how these turned out, they feel almost vintage-y with the colours and the slight blue to the photos (and that lovely element of surprise i talked about earlier bahahha)

i think you can all understand now how much i love underwater photography!! its my most favourite thing to do in summer! one more thing to mention is that hella amazing logo i added up there!! well that was designed and made by the lovely brooke from Utterly Brooke Lea Blog (make sure to follow her on insta too at @utterlybrookelea ) and i love love love the logo so much so big thanks to you brooke!!  i congratulate you if you were bothered to read all this, scroll down and check out  (some) of the underwater photos jas (salt water strawberry blog) and i took in summer holidays xx

SUMMER // 2 YEARS

 HEYHEYHEY
it's been way to long since i last posted and i'm sosososoosso sorry!! last weeks of school  = assignments, tests, projects, assessments = no inspiration or motivation.
on a happier / more important note yesterday (april 9th) was my two year anniversary of this blog and instagram! pre crazy but yeah i love you all and thanks for sticking by me ahhah ;))
i reckon as of yesterday its officially autumn - now i know autumn started like a month ago but for ages it was still warm/hot weather.  but yesterday it was grey, cloudy and pouring down with rain. i miss summer so much, there's two things i'm excited for in winter though - the clothes and my birthday -  so today, as i sit here in my tights, denim skirt and log sleeve top i am reminiscing on the amazing summer we had.
i spent summer laying on the beach, swimming in the pool and the salty ocean, taking a l o t of photos, making heaps of icy poles, watching the big bash, trying to control my salty hair, surfing and enjoying 8 weeks off school, and celebrating christmas/birthdays. summer is probably my most favourite season ever.
i have put whole lot of photos from my summer on and guess what.....i don't reckon this is even half of them!! hahahah. enjoy looking through the salty summer photos and hope you all have a fab Easter - look out for some fashion shoots coming soon x

MISSING SUMMER

well hey there !
it feels like it's been ages since i last posted on here but it hasn't really....but it has been a while since i showed you guys more QLD pics!
i cannot tell you how stoked i am for summer!! it's craaaaazy ahye
as much as i love love love winter it's time to bring on the warmer weather!! i miss them salty surf sessions and beach swims and photo taking!!!  wth i could live in an enternal summer!
but winter's good too..it means i could stay warm and cozy inside watching the olympics!! hell yehh guys, yah been watching it?? idk bout you but i just love the olympics. and i think Australia did AWESOME!-ly this year! and i am stoked for the 2020 olympics to be held in the magical place of Tokyo! I always like to wonder if somebody i know will be competing in the future olympics...
recently due to the harsh winter weather i have been cooking heaps! i love baking and always say to myself "put up a recipe post for gods sake" never seems to happen does it...nah. but it will!! trust me...lotsss more food type posts to come haha for sure!!

I should stop chatting about random things now and get onto the post!! this post features even more underwater photog!! man it's unreal. i luv it lots. these photos were taken in a pool. It makes them very clear and BLUE (fave colour ahye) but i personally prefer ones taken in the saltiness of the ocean... i think it's because it adds an element of surprise not knowing if the picture you just took will be clear or not..it's lotsa fun times, which is why i'm so stoked for summer to come quicker!!  so scroll down and take a peak at the photos ocean lovers and i'll see yah next time   xx
