ad Cambridge is truly a feast for the senses - I forget how magical it is ✨
Staying there overnight gives you more of a sense of how it must be to live there, and I spent the evening wondering with my camera. Once the day trippers had gone home it was amazingly peaceful, and so beautiful glowing in the evening sunshine.
I stayed at which has the most wonderful situation in the city, a short walk from all the loveliest parts and 360° views from the rooftop terrace. The restaurants(with the most delicious food) and the beautiful rooms also capitalise on those views, and honestly I’d never tire of them 🤍🌿 (ad pr stay)

A final few from the Algarve 🐚🌊
We stayed near Carvoeiro and visited Ferragudo in our little car too. These photos are from those towns and various beaches in between ☺️

This song popped up on my playlist last night and took me right back to listening to Californication whilst playing cards on the balcony with the boys ❤️

Wishing you all a fabulous sunny weekend!

I booked this holiday on a whim when my year was off to a very bad start, and then a week before things still weren’t much better and I didn’t think we’d make it. But we did, and I’m so so glad we did 🥰
It was low key and no frills, filled with cold pool dips, games of catch and cross word puzzles, cliff walks and a diet of fresh bread, local cheese and big tomatoes. And of course a lunchtime Superbock for the grown up 🙋‍♀️
What more do you need 🤍

I had to say the S word (sausages 🤫) to get the ears up, he doesn’t realise how much people love his ears ☺️

A few impressions from a stroll today with Albert. I missed the lovely sunshine earlier this week and managed to chose a grey day, but there are little tiny signs of spring and pops of colour in a landscape that’s been endlessly brown for months. The snowdrop, crocus and hyacinth lawn at Lamport Hall was truly magnificent, and Albert even hopped on a bench 🥰👏🏼

I’m excited to share that my new website is officially live! This project has been a long time in the making - a full rebrand, a name change, and the challenge of migrating 10 years of blog posts and content to combine with my current portfolio. It felt overwhelming at first, but I’m proud of how it all came together. And according to my son, the final result is very “me.” 🤍 🥰

Lifestyle, brand and family photography and film - natural, warm and beautifully authentic imagery across Northamptonshire and the Midlands.

I can’t imagine a cosier place to be right now 🍂
A few moments from our autumn escape to (ad/pr stay)- long, golden walks over to Cheltenham Racecourse, boots and coats kindly borrowed from the hotel so ours stayed mud free, a blissful afternoon in the pool and spa, and a dinner that ended with the best green apple I’ve ever tasted 🍏
These slow, happy days with my boys mean everything 💙

A hotel that feels like a great big, glowy, warm hug ☺️✨

Some cosy moments from where I was lucky enough to be invited to stay last week, along with Albert 🐶. This hotel occupies a gorgeous spot overlooking the river in Richmond upon Thames. The food is delicious, the decor is full of character and the staff are so friendly and helpful. And of course the bath speaks for itself! 🛁

Beautiful Richmond on Thames 🍂
Honestly London can be mind-blowingly gorgeous at times! I was very lucky to catch such a lovely autumnal day, everyone seemed to be in a good mood (how can you not be!), Albert had dozens of complements, and we strolled in the sunshine and soaked in the sights and sounds. A truly lovely day to remember 🤎

Ad Day 2 of our mini holiday in the Cotswolds 🌿
After a delicious breakfast at the and another wander around the village, we packed up and went to explore some of the nearby villages and towns.
Daylesford is always a good idea for a mooch, and we popped into Stowe and the some of the lovely shops and bakeries, and then on to Lower Slaughter where Albert enjoyed a paddle (next to the real ponies 🐴)
Our final stop was for an absolutely delicious lunch. I’m still thinking about the goats cheese tart starter!
It was so lovely to experience this gorgeous part of the country with my boys! 🥰🌿
*gifted stay and lunch

Ad August felt like one of those very rare times when I actually achieved a decent balance, with little trips here and there and even nice days out that felt like mini holidays, and I loved it.
We had just over 24 hours in the Cotswolds and when we got home we all felt like we’d been away for days, and this trip will definitely be one we all remember for a long time.
We stayed in a beautiful self contained unit at the . Kingham is such a pretty village and perfectly placed to reach lots of popular Cotswolds towns within about 20 minutes.
We strolled around the village ogling all the stunning houses we will never live in, before a delicious dinner that I’m honestly still thinking about! Having had kids who lived off cucumber and carbs for years, it’s a treat to take them places now and see them relish their food as much as I do!
The next day we popped to Dalesford, Stowe on the Wold, and Lower Slaughter before another lovely meal, but more on that soon!
The Kingham Plough is dog friendly and I can imagine it being so cosy in the Autumn 🥹🍂All round highly recommend it to anyone wanting a great foodie stay in the Cotswolds 🧡
