As a Mum and as a photographer, I know just how important it is to document your memories. To capture those moments that illustrate your life at any given moment. To freeze time on your family, exactly as they are, right now. Photographs are key to telling our stories, to ensuring that we are seen…
The first two weeks of the summer holidays feel like forever ago already – the time is going so fast. I had been feeling like we haven’t really done very much so far (beyond multiple trips to the library and shopping for school uniforms) but as I look back over these images I can see…
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…

Joyful moments from mid-June: sunrises; flowers; pretty light and adventures with my girls all make for a very happy Chloe…
