Matilda Melody summed up in a picture. No shoes Matilda Melody summed up in a picture. 

No shoes (standard), hair wild (standard), bow and arrow (standard), and well the dresses are becoming less of a thing but apparently today this dress is something “a outdoorsy girl wears” 😂 

Still buzzing from her outdoor award and think this is another good example of why she deserved it 🥰

Home for a few days at the lush @martletwycampsite Home for a few days at the lush @martletwycampsite . It’s just a quick stay so the @isabellacamping_uk arc awning is perfect for a quick pitch up (5 mins to put up). Perfect with kids and dogs that really just want to get to the beach 🏖

Today I cried with pride twice. The first time w Today I cried with pride twice. 

The first time when I got to witness Tilly get the outdoor award at school. A very difficult award to get and one given out for exceptional behaviour and skills in all outdoor lessons and activities. It’s a wonderful award and happens to be my favourite. 

The second time when Dylan got off the school bus. Tilly told him to shut his eyes and wait and see what award she had. Dylan being an x pupil knew exactly what award it was. He scooped her up in his arms and swung her around and around whilst screaming out how amazing she is. It was one of those moments I will never ever forget and it’s well locked away in the memory bank. 

It’s been a long hard term with covid, flu, sickness, dramas and just life. This has finished it off perfectly and I’m very, very ready for the break. 

Today was a great day ❤️
So very proud of myself 🥰 First time in my lif So very proud of myself 🥰

A love for Photography

December 29, 2019      admin      1 Comment

Photography has changed significantly over the years the old camera my Nan used cannot be compared to a camera like a (Professional) Mirrorless Cameras but what hasn’t changed is my families love for photography.

My Nan loved her camera. I can remember little about her but in my Dads old office I can find dozens of photo albums and old slide shows. The pictures are often faded, and I don’t know the faces staring at the camera, but I have always still loved to flick through them. I am sure her love of photography was passed onto my Dad. He was an incredible photographer and even with what is now considered old antiquated equipment he made some beautiful, natural pictures.

Some smells we can remember and remind us of places and times just as music or places do. A smell that will always take me back to my childhood is the smell of the solutions my Dad would use in his dark room to develop his pictures. It was my Dads domain, his place of escape from the long hours he worked but on occasion he would let me in to help. I can remember watching him so carefully place the picture into one tray, then another until almost by magic the photograph would begin to develop. He would hang them on what I always called his magic washing line.

It was always going to be the case having a Dad that loved not just taking pictures but understood the science of developing them that I would inherit a love for the camera. I think like Dad did I can generally see what is going to make a good picture. Unlike Dad I have it easier that I can just shoot and snap with filters and auto lens, but also unlike Dad I don’t develop or even print enough pictures.

My Son is and has been for some years a very keep photographer and even at the grand old age of ten won his first photography competition this year so a love for photography has obviously been passed onto him now too.

Photography for me is a major part of my family life. The one thing I will be changing though is the outcome of taking pictures. I want the family albums to carry on being filled. Not to stop at my Dads pictures. Its not just about selfies and scenic pictures of sunsets its about the everyday pictures of family life.
