What will you remember of the days when your children were still small, but growing and changing so quickly?

Did you know, I offer A Year in Your Life bookings. 4 seasonal sessions, or 6 shorter bi-monthly sessions. Your own personal photographer for the year, documenting the story of your family.

When an email pops through on my desk, and straight away I recognise that it's a picture I took, it's the perfect prompt for me to share on my channels in support of cancer research.

Happy "...Nothing a Day on the Beach Wouldn't Fix" Day!

My beautiful Dad would have turned 107 today. Even though it's been a few years since I have listened to his happy voice telling me "never better" when asked how he was, he's still a daily inspiration to me.
"...Nothing a Day on the Beach Wouldn't Fix" was one of his sayings, and definitely something he lived by, body-surfing up until the age of 96, and still having a hit of golf at 98.
Take it as a philosophy.
From the man who tried vegetarianism in the 1940s, never had a big meal at night (loved salad, vegetables, nuts and dried fruit), woke up every morning and squeezed fresh orange juice for the whole family, practiced the Alexander Technique as long as I remember - always had beautiful posture, loved a quick kip (snooze) in the car out the back of his office in the early afternoon, went for a walk after dinner most days, and espoused "everything in moderation".

He was ahead of his time in health, wellness, and the power of positive thinking.

He was also the creator of my Running Under the Sprinkler logo (it's Dad's beautiful penmanship), and my original photographic mentor, too.

So today, I encourage everyone to put a positive spin on things like Dad always did.

Makes me smile.

On Saturday 22nd July 2028, Sydney will be the spot to view the next eclipse.
Who wants to get married then? I think we can get some pretty cool pictures!

A total solar eclipse swept across parts of Europe and the North Atlantic on 12 August, with the path of totality moving through Greenland, Iceland, Spain and a small section of north-eastern Portugal, while surrounding areas across Europe experienced a partial solar eclipse, according to the Europe...

A first for me - a surprise proposal.
She said yes.

Which was lucky, because I was there to take photos.

Makes me smile.
