It’s Project 10 time again – that time when I’m supposed to post 10 pictures from a fairly average day, just to capture what life’s about in our family… and one of the things that life is about in my family is travel… so often my Project 10’s are of when we travel – and…

I can’t believe I haven’t shared this yet – a couple of months ago the beautiful Teresa and Thomas magazines first print issue came. I’ve featured in their digital magazine before (pictures from the beautiful Abu Dhabi desert) but there’s really something amazing about seeing your work in print in an international magazine, and alongside…

efi panagoula - oh! and how much i loved the last two photos!!!!!!!!
Kirsty - I love playing and doing something different just for fun 😀
Janine - She’s growing up! Why can’t our little ones just be little for longer…sigh. Seriously though, she’s such a doll. Jesse thinks it’s super cool that she’s wearing a 4. He wants to meet for a play date. Hmmmmm….tricky. Fantastic pictures of your day. Jx

The sun rose slowly and the girls ran around… throwing in a little gangnam style…. Playing run at/crash into/hug your big sister…..Seriously, love and laughter like this is contagious…. Hope your 2013 got off…

Project 10 January 2013 | Abu Dhabi LIfestyle Photographer

I failed miserably at documenting a whole day over the holiday period – we travelled so much, and saw so many people and well, generally just had too much fun!! So instead of a whole day, I have about 6 hours of one day… a morning walk with one lovely dog, and an afternoon walk…

Letters to Our Daughters | November » Emma Wood Photography - […] through this blog circle of amazing women, starting with one of the loveliest and talented women Kirsty Larmour The images she takes of her girls always blow me away and her letters are […]
Emma Wood - Kirsty your images never fail to amaze me, and it’s not beccause of your stunning location, it’s because you are a beutifiul connected photographer who sees thing that others miss. Another lovely blog post to your sweet girls. <3
Debbie Wibowo - Oh Kristy..what an awesome location and the pics where they stood on the roof of the car is super awesome! As a mom, I think of all us can definitely relate to more TV/movie time and I always feel guilty about it. I love reading the part how you spend the quality time with your daughters..cuddling and sharing stories. They sure are memorable.
amy grace - kirsty, your images are always so incredibly striking, so perfect. the places you find, that surround you seem to match your spirit. your daughters will know their mother as a force of nature, as someone who models the drive and hope and optimism that will get them where they dream of going. life gets busy, and sometimes in those times, we find our strength, resourcefulness and independence. they are finding their way with you as their loving guide, showing them their deep beauty. the quiet times in between that you describe are ever the more precious. it is your perfect. keep basking in that stunning light you find. you inspire me xoxo
Ginger Unzueta - Love your letter so much. I adore all of your work really!! I sometimes feel that guilt, of saying just a minute to much at times. But our love is what holds us through it all. Lovely !!!
Sarah Cornish - Oh Kirsty I so admire your honesty and I can relate a million percent! Your words really resonate with me and I know they are going to mean the world to your girls! I think this is one thing all of us mamas can relate to so well! Your images as always are absolutely breath taking. Those little ladies of yours couldn’t be any more gorgeous!!
Sara T - Oh WOW. Those of your girls on the top of the car and your eldest under the tree, the two of them hugging, my favs. I love that you “love them higher than the highest mountain and down again”. It is the best to hear how we express our love in a way they can comprehend. I think it is so lovely to hear about putting your “busies” into perspective and time of year. It is okay that we do have them watching more movies than we would like. And beans and toast? I want that recipe. I’ll bet it’s a good one 🙂 Beautiful, Kirsty.
Lena - I love your letters to the girls! And while I know how busy this time of year is for you (I myself had to resort to the TV more than i care to admit), you are such a wonderful Mom and your girls will have so amazing fond memories of their childhood. And toast and beans for dinner sounds pretty yummy to me! 🙂
shalonda - oooohhhh kirsty! i feel ya mama its def a pretty crazy time of the year…BUT…i love your outlook on it! WHen i quit my “real job” to be a mom i always heard that little ugly voice in my brain saying “but what will your daughters think of you, just staying home?!” then my life took this path and i found photography and i realized just how much they will learn from me and me “just staying home” 🙂 wonderfully said and beautifully finished…as YES THERE IS ALWAYS TIME FOR SNUGGLES. xoxo sweet friend
Val Spring - Oh Kirsty, you have no idea how identify I feel with this letter! It’s been the same way around here. You know you are not the only one. But what you said is so true. it’s good for them to see how hard you work to help have the lifestyle that you have and it’s ok for them to have to wait or to hear a “not today” every now and then. And as you said, there’s ALWAYS time for some snuggles. 🙂 I just love reading your letters and looking at the gorgeous photos of your sweet girls. Your life is so fun to watch from this side of the world! Thanks for sharing it 🙂
Rashmi - Now I want beans on toast… reminds me of my childhood. 🙂
I love what you wrote Kirsty.. this season is like that for all of us isn’t it? I am going to remember what you said.. that it is GOOD for the girls to see a hard working mum… that sometimes that is okay and they can fend for themselves a little more than usual. Just reading that I let go of a little bit of mom guilt I was feeling myself. I can’t wait to meet you someday.. i feel like we are kindred spirits. xo
Project 10 December 2012 | Abu Dhabi Lifestyle Photographer » Kirsty Larmour Photography – Abu Dhabi Lifestyle Photography - […] as I mentioned in my last Letter to the girls this time of year get crayzeeeeee! And I totally ran out of time for my Project 10 – but […]
rowe - i adore these images of the girls! what beautiful, honest, heartfelt words too… this time of year is such a busy time… mummy guilt is so tough cause its a constant struggle trying to get the balance just right but you are an amazing mum and your girls are so lucky to have a mum who will inspire them to reach for the stars! if you work hard, anything is possible! i really love this project! rowe x

Project 10 November 2012 | Abu Dhabi Lifestyle Photographer

11.10.12

This month might just be one of my favourite Project 10’s ever – you’ll be able to tell that from the fact I’ve included just a little over 10 images!!! When it was the Eid holidays a couple of weeks ago we went camping in the mountains near to Fujairah – although it may have…

Letters to my Daughters | September 2012

09.25.12

This is the 6th month of this project – 6 months of sitting down, collecting my thoughts and making time to tell my girls some of the things I need them to know as they grow up, and as I grow as a mother – this is so important to me – I hope it…

Show Hide 9 comments

Rashmi - So beautifully said my friend. Your Indy-pie reminds me of my own little girl.. her big sister being her hero and sometimes struggling and feeling unsettled without her sister there. These challenges will make them grow and step out of their sister’s shadow and become their own person. Such a blessing to have a sister. <3
Amy Lucy Lockheart - Oh sweet Indy! Sometimes it’s tough being a little sister and facing changes and transitions at such a young age. I know you cherish those extra moments with her, Kirsty, and she cherishes her time with you just as much. Such beautiful words to share with your sweetie. xoxo
Danielle - Such a sweet letter to Indy. My two were completely dis-combobulated this past summer, and had a crazy 6 weeks. One of them handled it sooo well, the other was not as easy-going. It is hard for these little people to adjust at times (just like us!), and being taken out of their comfort zone can be a good thing. Extra snuggles & hugs are a perfect remedy! I hope we get to see you all this Xmas, we’ll be here. x
helke - Oh Kirsty, it’s all so true…and expressed so well. Luisa is a bit going through the same now Asia is going to the school for the big kids. But she’s also doing even more fine ‘on her own’ at kindergarden and now has some more time for her litle sister. Thank you to show me your beautiful letter for your little growing Indy. And: your pics beautiful as usual!
SarahB - Your letters are so heartfelt Kirsty – the girls will treasure them so much. lots of love to Indy, hope things are OK for her now xxxx
Julia - It took me a few minutes to get to your letter this month, because I couldn’t take my eyes off of these incredible images. Unbelievably beautiful, Kirsty – absolute magic. Your letter was amazing as well, and one that I took to heart as I go through my own changes and wonky time. xoxox
Kati - Lovely. I really have no other words. Your baby is growing too fast! xxx

Letter to my Daughters | July 2012

07.25.12

This is the fourth of my letters that I introduced in April. They won’t always be picture perfect, or eloquent, but they will be from the heart, and I’ll be writing them each month for my 2 treasured girls. I’m undertaking this project with the most amazing set of ladies around the world….. Next go and see…

You are providing something invaluable for them. You have given them wings. Such a wonderful mama you are!
Rashmi - Oh Kirsty.. the pictures the pictures! I love that both you and Jody speak about travelling in this month’s edition of Letters. I really truly believe that kids who travel become adults who travel and change the world. I hope you are enjoying Paris! can’t wait to see the photographs. Take me along on your next adventure? xoxo
Amy Lucy Lockheart - What an amazing childhood your girls are experiencing! It is such a rare thing to be able to travel as extensively as your young daughters have in their short lives. I absolutely love these photos, Kirsty, and your words of wisdom. I hope you are having the time of your lives in Europe and can’t wait to hear about it when you return! xoxo
Meagan Baker - Vancouver Child Photographer - I love everything about this letter – the images are gorgeous, and so is your writing. Beautiful project. Inspires me to do this for my daughter.
Michelle Stone - Oh my goodness, I may just be a sappy dork, but reading that totally made me tear up. Your girls are so lucky and it sounds like you are pretty lucky to have them too. 🙂
