Love in the sunshine

Yes I know....more blogging about Ibiza...are you getting the idea that I had a good time!?!? 
The absolute best thing about last week was the teamwork, people came along just to help out friends and be part of the day and this is particularly true of Ruth and Frey, a gorgeous couple who live on the island. Ruth volunteered to come along to work with Nadia who is the make up artist, to showcase her work. 


...and I got the chance to spend time with a couple who just love each other so much, and it shows

Thank you so much to Ruth and Frey for just being so lovely.

The wonders of Facebook!


As you know I recently went to Ibiza to collaborate on a photoshoot, just before I went I got a message on Facebook from Cat Milton who lives on the Island and is also a photographer, offering to help us if needed. I love the fact that people just came together for this shoot and we had so much support. Anyway Cat and I decided to meet up for lunch and she very kindly showed me round part of the Island. Now Cat will say that she is a relative novice at photography but I beg to disagree....she has a brilliant eye for composition and manages to capture the real Ibiza and its people. 


This is Cats photography website - I would love it if you would pop over there and see just how beautiful Ibiza is.    Cat Milton




So we went to see the salt plains near the airport - a huge manmade area where the salt is collected. I believe the foam is a byproduct of the salt - more details can be found here http://www.ibizaa-z.com/print2.php?name=Ibiza's%20Salt%20Flats

Cat in action!


This is an outlet for the foamy water - it was coming out under pressure and produced these amazing abstract shapes


I would like to say a huge thank you to Cat for taking the time out to meet with me - and I really hope that she realises very soon just how talented she is...and a huge thank you to Facebook for putting us in touch with each other - the world is truly getting smaller every day!
