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)

SNOW!

Friday, December 18, 2009

It snowed! It snowed! It snowed! Lots and lots and lots! AND I was on holiday AND Amélie’s school had a broken water pipe so they asked us to keep her home for the day AND did I mention it snowed?! Well it did. Everywhere! Can you tell I’m a little bit excited about this? And don’t worry, I did go back out without my camera so I could get my revenge on both Han and Amélie. And I’ve discovered the best way of throwing a snow-ball: don’t compact it. Actually, don’t make a ball at all. Just scoop up a big hand-full of the powdery white stuff and throw that. It’ll cover your victim from head to toe with the added benefit that it will stick and then start melting, slowly dripping icy-cold water down their backs. Unless of course you mis-judge the wind. In which case you’ll get a face-full yourself. As did I. Happy holidays everyone!
