An absolute pleasure getting these for you
There is a huge need for your story to be heard, and for us women to band together, compare notes and rewrite the stories our bodies are enduring in this toxic age. Love what you're doing here my friend.

My mom was particulary fond of this song, so much so that it inspired a painting, the chorus inscribed in the detailed brushwork. We played it at the end of her memorial, and I remember just before the second chorus, the song cut.

There was a brief dip in accompanying chorus by the congregation until a few voices carried the song forward until everyone rejoined. The sound inside the ancient St John's Anglican chapel reverberated at it always has, as it did when I was at school attending chapel, and when my mom was at school.

I didn't really cry throughout her memorial, until this moment. It was a real show of solidarity and love from everyone who came to support us, and it touched me to my core.

I'm proud of my little unit. I think my mom would be too.

Double exposure whilst on shoot for . I've been revisiting old songs, Junip being in the mix after re-watching one of my favorite movies ever: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. This one's always been a favourite. Along with a Jose Gonzalez song called Stay Alive. There's something magical about the moment Walter skates all the way down route 93 in Iceland and that magnificent version of the song plays. But my favorite part of the movie? The Ghost Cat moment. There have been many moments that I didn't take the shot, for various reasons. Mostly to keep it for myself, intentionally, in my mind and heart.

Hayes family ❤️ it took nearly a year to get this family shoot in place 😆 Many car park promises were made between us as we rushed between pick ups and drop offs, but gosh it was great when it did all come together. 👌🏻 And I scored a free plant. Winning 💪🏻

Dear Ella and Ruby, please stop charming my aging ovaries with your cuteness. The factory is closed. I am so happy being a boy mom of two, but your ridiculously cute giggles, squeals, dimples, gummy smiles and adorable frocks are making my ovaries challenge management's decisions about aforementioned factory closure. I hear these geriatric ovaries are planning a peaceful protest and an external entity is not helping in his encouraging the ovaries' exuberant expectations.

Kind Regards, your besotted photographer.

Big love Fosters ❤️

Could I have predicted returning to Nikki and Greg's garden 7 years after their wedding with 3 adorable children? I'm not sure, but all I could think of during our shoot is how I needed this afternoon.

I needed to be reminded how important it is to take photos. To time stamp where we are in the journey.

I needed to be reminded how the important things are simple things, like picking daisies, hitting golf balls in the garden and spotting monkeys in the trees.

I needed to be reminded of the fragility of life, and that all we have is today, and that we should savour all the particularly good things like you'd savour a sweet from the sweet jar.

Darling Piper, Frankie and Sullivan, what utterly delightful children you all are. Piper, with your magnificent smile and enquring nature, you can be my photography assistant anytime. Frankie, your infectious laugh and joy for the sweet things in life will make you the life of the party one day I can just tell. Sully, I can see you have a strength in you like no other kid I have ever met. And gosh, what LOVE surrounds you, sweet boy.

Nikki and Greg, I'm so proud of you and it was an honour to capture this slice of time in your lives. Thank you ❤️

This photography business is a funny one. It makes very little economic sense, especially the way I run it. This is a heart-led operation and I 100% need God to help me run it.

As you may know, I decided photography was no longer for me some years back. I looked down every alley to find another way to be financially secure, but alas, nothing really clicked. But slowly, as I emerged from a slurry of sleep deprivation, bodily fluids, and square eyes from internet scuba diving, I came back laden with insecurity, but with a deep desire to be intentionally purposeful. 

I have a daily battle with anxiety. And truth be told, this occupation does precisely diddly squat for my adrenals. It was another reason I wanted to give it up. If you see me in my car before a shoot and it looks like I'm talking to myself, well I might be but I'm most likely praying my camera still works and that God magically gives me good ideas. And He does every time. 

It ain't me, its all Him. 

And the more I surrender the details, the more I am amazed at the coincidences.

At this stage of my life my only prerogative is to serve, and reflect the light I rely on. I am a wildly imperfect vessel, but I'm trying. As long as I am given the tools to do it, I'll keep serving in the hopes that I am purposeful and that I bring some kind of light to the party.

So I got caught in traffic this morning and took the opportunity to have a car party when this song came on. And while I was jubilantly jamming (apparently I look like I'm having a fit when this happens, and yes it happens fairly frequently and yes my kids always follow suit and yes all three of us look positively loony - c'est la vie!) I thought about some rock stars in my life and this magnificent lass came to mind. Morgan of - it is a marvel what you are doing for local business in the Midlands and beyond. You make all the businesses you work with look soooooo much cooler on the socials. And you know what works. And you're a genuinely lovely human. And you make my photos look amazing 👏🏻

So, if you are a business and you need to up your game when it comes how you look visually online, you best contact 👌🏻
