Category Archives: Personal We spent half of the summer in the UAE before heading off on some travels which meant we had lots of time for local adventures! I challenged myself, and members of the “Photography on the Fly” Facebook group (please come along and join us if you’ve taken PotF and enjoyed it and want to keep […]  Another summers day in Abu Dhabi, another trip to the beach! When you’re stuck slogging it out here in the heat and need a change Saadiyat beach is perfect – not necessarily refreshing, if I’m honest, because the water feels like bath water this time of year and the salt makes it sticky, but it’s […]  I think it’s no surprise to anyone how much I love exploring around Abu Dhabi and the UAE and capturing photographs in some of our more diverse landscapes. So one afternoon some we headed off with some friends for a picnic out at the fossil rocks. The 5 kids loved clambering over them and playing/exploring/fighting/hiding […]  I’ve been focussing on capturing my kids a lot this summer as we’re hanging out in Abu Dhabi for quite a long time this summer holidays. Despite the soaring heat and crazy humidity and dusty skies we’ve been out and about a lot and spent some afternoons at the beach. The girls are becoming little surfer girls and […]  I love it when we venture a bit further afield and stumble across new places to explore – a friend had described where this place was to me and when I found it the beach there was perfect like that. Not too much else around, some houses way over in the distance but nothing much to […]  I am SO excited to be part of another BreakOut for Click Photo School!!!! I love their BreakOuts as a short, sweet means of learning at your own pace and they’re just such incredibly good value. This one is with 4 other amaaaazingly talented artists – like so much talent that my jaw hit the desk […]  I can’t believe that we have completed our THIRD year of the Wish You Were Here Project – this project has become so dear to my heart. The group of ladies who contribute to it from around the world are wonderful and we share the weekly ins and outs of our lives – the ups and […]  What do you buy for the Photographer you love? It doesn’t matter if it’s a birthday, Christmas, Eid or another special occasion we photographers rarely want photography gear for Christmas – we want the lovely extras, the fun things, the special things, the things that make us feel good – especially if we’re already in […]  Pretty much every year I make a post to celebrate the National Day of thre United Arab Emirates – well one of my babies was born here in Abu Dhabi, so it’s a place that will always be held in our hearts dearly. This year I decided to share a few from the Flag Garden at […]  So after months of preparation my Break Out has finally gone live and it’s so exciting!! I have the most adorable group of students all keen to capture great memories this summer wherever they are, and whatever they’re doing. And that’s just what I wanted! People who are passionate about experiencing life AND capturing it […] It was a HUGE honour to be asked to speak at the ClickinMoms Click Away conference 2 years ago, and even though I always thought I’d never want to teach photography I LOVED it!!!! So, having had so much fun it was even HUGER to be asked to write a Break Out for Click Photo School talking […]  I’m still so behind on posting – our travels have been amazing and I have so much to share – as well as so many beautiful Abu Dhabi Photography sessions from my trips back there to see wonderful clients over this year… but for now I’m going to share some pieces of life… While we […]  Aaaaah, I’m late to the game posting my January Pieces of life project – it’s been a busy old month – full of excitement and business and friends and laughter and amazing places – and not very much decent internet or editing time!!! One of our highlights of the month was visiting the Steve McCurry […]  I am so over the moon honoured and thrilled to have been interviewed for Click Magazine. This magazine is a publication that just gets what women want from photography. Click features emotion and feelings and pretty light and it’s not just about the gear or the settings as so many photography magazines are. They asked me […]  Tomorrow is Holi in India. It’s also known as the festival of colours – a festival that says goodbye to winter and welcomes the all the colours and vibrancy of spring. Last year we were in India for it and I’ve been loving spending time going through the photos to try and get a little […] |
