♥ I'm a 29 year old mum of 2 boys who really still isn't sure about herself when she looks in the mirror. I have some really negative opinions about myself which I am trying hard to change.
♥ At times I can be slightly neurotic, quixotic, opinionated, arrogant, dependable, spirited, lazy, stand-offish, warm, impatient, quick-witted, loving, argumentative and sometimes irreverent to a fault...but, hey, that's me.
Another thing I think I am is honest. I'll be the first to admit if I'm wrong, yet the last to admit that it's actually possible!

Love. . . . 09/06
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

I love ALL things pink!
I also have a love of ink and piercings and have a good few of each!
I have just got my first DSLR, a Canon Rebel XTi. I love it!!

Although, I am still very much a novice photographer, I hope to spend the next few months improving - I have some great ideas, but they never seem to materialise when I actually try to shoot them!

    Raynah Thomas says:

    "Kirstin is beautiful, modest and smart. She has always opened up and been very honest when sharing her photos, and that is sometimes humbling and always interesting. I was delighted to find that I was to be creating a tribute to her this month, and knew exactly which shot I wanted to work with; it's taken me a little while to get to it because it was a fairly big job!"

    "Kirstin has a fantastic creative eye and her Self Portraits are amazing. Her ability to show true emotion in an image is one that I can only wish to be able to emulate. Also her portraits of her children are just beautiful. I love watching to see what she comes up with next. xx"

    "Kirstin's photos over this year have been so much fun, and have given an insight into her life. She takes gorgeous photos of her two boys, and her love for her family just shines through.
    I also loved Kirstin's 30 secrets series, which showed her courage (whatever she may say to the contrary) as they were so open and honest. Her self-portraits are fab.
    Kirstin, I'm looking forward to HPAD2009 with you."
