Sometime in January I headed out of town to location scout for some great spots for some Abu Dhabi desert shoots – what happened instead was that I ended up filming some behind the scenes for my latest break out, and they ended up being some of my favourite photos!!! I had my camera, but really I…
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…
The ClickinWalk is coming up soon and this year it will be held in Abu Dhabi for the first time ever which is very exciting for me as someone who has been a photographer in Abu Dhabi for 10 years!! For those that don’t know about it, it’s a photo walk that happens in cities all…
A beautiful review of some of the Abu Dhabi Families and moments photographer Kirsty Larmour captured in 2016
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 the 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…
I was delighted to be able to capture the time when baby No. 3 arrived and joined this beautiful family. I shared their beautiful Dubai sunset beach maternity session here. I’ve captured a few hours worth of tender moments in the early weeks of all three of their children now and the trust that they put…
It’s always an honour when someone chooses you to capture their family, there is no doubt about that. But when that family chooses to make a whole day road trip down from the far side of Dubai to meet you in the middle of nowhere because Mum has been reading your blog and knows that…
In a place like Abu Dhabi where people are always moving on it’s such a beautiful thing to capture a family time and again. To be there to document the excitement and emotion of the arrival of a third child is truly an honour and I have adored spending time with this beautiful family as…
