I’ve said it so many times before, but I’m happiest by the sea (or a turquoise blue alpine lake…. i’m not fussy). Theres just something about the sea that I find incredibly calming. I always come away feeling as though my mind has been de-cluttered and re-booted! Whenever we have time, we love going to […]
There are few cities more picture-perfect than Paris. It is literally a photographers DREAM! Here are my top tips for getting the best Parisian snaps (and you’ll notice that none of them require a fancy pants camera! win!) 1. Look BEHIND you I’m pretty sure that when I’m travelling, I’m often perceived as the ridiculously […]

Jeeeeeze Hollywood.) Still Alice tells the story […]

One of the best things about living in England is the seasons. I feel like whenever we step into a new one, everyone gets so excited! (myself included). We’ve had the odd day that has felt like spring, only for temperatures to plummet again! This last week, however, has been absolutely glorious! More sunshine, lighter evenings […]
