(Gentle warning that this caption contains sensitive material about mental health that some people might find difficult. I've thought long & hard about whether or not to share this & have ultimately decided that it's better to be open than to keep things hidden, just in case it helps someone else)
.
Yesterday I talked someone down off of a railway bridge.
.
It feels really surreal to say that. I'm still trying to process it & honestly probably still a bit in shock. I work as a therapist in my day job - I'm familiar with the conversation. I've just never had to do it with a total stranger who had a very strong intention of jumping.
.
She wore her pain visibly on her arms & around her neck in the form of scars. Countless people had already walked past her even though she was clearly distressed. I stayed with her for over an hour & I'd have stayed with her all night if I had to. Nothing else mattered except keeping her safe & alive. There were moments when I didn't think it would work. I tried to remember everything I've been taught about what to say & what not to say, & ultimately simply went with instinct & overwhelming love for this girl. She told me some of her story, I shared some of mine.
.
The police came. Everything turned out well in the end. This time anyway. I hope with all my heart she made it through today too. And that she'll get through tomorrow. And the day after & the day after...
.
I can't stop thinking about her, about what else I could have said or done that might have made more of a difference. So if by some small miracle of the universe, she ever sees this, this message is for her...
.
L, you matter so much more than you realise. Ripple effects reach further than you think. There are good people & good things in the world & you deserve them just as much as anyone else. You have been through so much, & been so strong for so long, & I know you're tired. I fully believe that you can get through this part too. There is always a light somewhere in the darkness, even if it's only the tiniest pinprick of starlight in the sky - it's there, I promise. You have such a beautiful soul - I can see it. And I see you. Stay, please. It's worth it.

A little selection of favourite images from a recent personal branding photoshoot with @km_fuller (which ended up being so much more than just a photoshoot ✨️).
.
Katie is an incredibly soulful artist and writer, which was absolutely perfect for my neverending obsession with photographing hands that tell stories, and all the tiny details of people's lives.
.
Thank you for inviting me to your beautiful home and for sharing your world (and your heart) with me Katie 🫶
.
I have a small selection of weekend dates still available throughout the summer months for family adventure shoots, in-home shoots and personal branding shoots. You can message me here, fill in the form on my website (link in bio) or email me at: hello@momentsinbetweenphotography.co.uk. I'd love to help tell your story too.

An experiment. Which I think kind-of-maybe-sort-of worked? I'm forever trying to figure out how to play more with the light and space in this house.
(Alternative title: finding a tiny corner of peace in the midst of the chaos) 😌

Do you prefer the colour or the black & white? I can't decide.
