About
So kind of you to ask! I’d like to keep this short and sweet so in a nutshell … I am a writer, nature lover and freelance journalist. I am also a bit obsessed with taking close-up photos of flowers.
Writing has been the single thread that held my career diversity together and I am now pleased that I can focus on this passion solely. Check out my martial arts blog Junbi and my writing blog Stories in Ten Tweets. My ventures in freelance journalism have led me to re-discover my passion for photographing flowers and you can now purchase my prints from fineartamerica and view my Tote bags at L’art Du Tote.
My studies have also taken me into the realms of medical microbiology, information management and project management and I am a genetic counselling supporter. You can find my (currently dormant) Genetic Counselling blog here.
We left the spectacular city of Cape Town in South Africa to live in the beautiful East Sussex countryside for three years and have now relocated again to sunny California. I live with my inspirational husband and my two loving and energetic children and I am thoroughly enjoying myself.

Merci beaucoup Sophie! Thanks for following back. Your photographs are beautiful too! Looking forward to your future posts.
I was thinking that your photos are so realistic that it just miss the smell…. Maybe on the next decade the science (a second thing that we have on common: I am research technician specialized in histology) will find something to share odors.
Good evening
What a lovely comment! Great to find a fellow scientist and what a brilliant idea. We could sit back and smell the flowers 🙂 Enjoy your evening too!
