And it's off! Zoom zoom zoom!

Oh no! The postman lost your letter. Please try again.

I was born in England, near Hastings, but grew up in the South of France. I met, fell in love with and married my now husband after returning to the UK. We now live in Belgium where our daughter, Amélie, was born in 2005.

I am a lawyer by profession but like pretending to be a photographer in my spare time. I first became properly interested in photography shortly after Amélie's birth but that interest has since developed into a bit of an all-consuming passion. I love trying to capture the happiness she brings me and her uninhibited wonder at the world that surrounds us. I don't want to forget a single moment of this incredible journey.

I shoot with a digital Canon SLR camera and edit my pictures in PhotoShop. If you have any questions about my pictures, please don't hesitate to leave me a comment and I'll do my best to help. That being said, I know I still have lots and lots to learn so constructive feedback is really appreciated.

Anyway, that's enough about me. How are you?

(the pictures of me in the blond wig were taken by Tara Leigh, an inspiration and someone I am lucky to be able to call a friend - give her site a visit, you won't be disappointed! - and my logo was designed by the fabulous Matthew Nelson)

Teenager Training

It’s winter. I want to hibernate. At least until a bit of green starts appearing in the parks. Or until I stop shivering every time I get out of bed. One or the other. Still, I did emerge from my nest today long enough to pick up my camera for the first time in a month. Hanno thinks this is a good sign. When he saw me at the computer flicking through my pictures and doing a bit of editing he grinned and gave me a big hug: “what was that for?” “you’re playing with pictures again! It’s a sign! You must be feeling better!”. Ha. Well, I’m not sure about that. I have spent most of the day hiding under a blanket but maybe he’s right. Maybe the sun will come out again soon. In the meantime, we’ve got Amélie in teenager training. Except I don’t think she needs much training…

See, she’s nearly there! Not that we’re in any hurry. It’s so much more fun being little.

29/01/2010 - 6:31 pm (big) Amélie - I love looking at these pictures over and over again (I've been here several times eheh) but can never quite figure out what to write. I can understand hibernation .. despite the new gear, I don't think I'm out of it yet :D Amélie is so beautiful .. I love that middle picture so much, where she seems lost in thoughts. I would love to see it printed on canvas :)
