Little Loves: April 2021

April feels like it’s stretched on for ages.  For all the right reasons though – it’s been full of good things.  We’ve been doing our best to make the most of the last month of having Neil home with us full time before he goes back to work at the start of May to get…

April 2021: The Moments In Between

I take hundreds of photos every month, and most of them don’t get shared with anyone, let alone online. And yet the moments in time that those photos capture are just as important a part of our story as the other images that I do choose to share. I originally created this blog as a…

Spring in Bude (Part 1)

Every Easter holidays (with the exception of 2020 of course because of the Covid-19 pandemic) we travel down to Bude in North Cornwall.  Spring in Bude is our absolute favourite time of year to visit: we usually get lovely, warm, sunny weather; it’s less busy as the summer season meaning that the beaches are a…

Little Loves: March 2021

March has been a month of two halves:  I didn’t pick up my camera at all for the whole of the first two weeks (which is unheard of for me) – I was just so busy trying to balance home-schooling with being incredibly busy and full-on with my own work that there wasn’t time to…

ClickAway 2020: Atlanta

In March 2020, a whole year ago, I attended my first ever ClickAway Photography Conference.  ClickAway is an annual photography event run by the brilliant ClickinMoms community and it takes place in a different location in the United States every year.  ClickAway 2020 was held in the beautiful city of Atlanta, Georgia. *Please note that…

Little Loves: February 2021

The end of February represents the end of Winter in my eyes and that is definitely a good thing.  I’m desperate for some spring sunshine and very much hoping that it’s just around the corner.  It’s felt like this month has gone quite quickly and I can’t quite believe that tomorrow is March.  I can’t…

The Happy Jar 2020

On 1st January 2016 we began what has turned out to be a new family tradition: the Happy Jar. The Happy Jar started out as just a fun activity to do with the girls and, in truth, I wasn’t sure how long it would capture their attention for although I was hopeful it would last. …

Lola: Eleven

Exactly a month ago, at the beginning of January, Lola turned eleven years old.  Eleven!  I still can’t quite believe it – how is my baby eleven?  Looking back at her birthday blog post from last year I’m amazed at how much she’s changed and, well, grown up.  Of course this time last year none…
