A journey

It's a year since my journey into photography got serious. 

Two cameras, a new lens, a lot of reading, experimenting, playing and I'm feeling pretty good about my hobby. I love taking photographs. I hope that E is glad of it when she gets older and wants to look back. I've developed my style. I know what I like and what I don't. I love that I have been allowed to capture some of the greatest moments in the lives of my friends too. I love that people like my photographs enough to repin them on Pinterest, or hang on them on their walls, or appreciate them as gifts. And the odd booking has started to come my way too.

An exciting year.

In celebration, my two favourite photographs from each month of the last year. And a small bit of reminiscing about how much has changed!

    1. Thank you Nicola, what kind words. We don't see my dad very often so it's a very special picture indeed. :)

  7. What lovely moments.
    I'm desperate for a new camera at the moment - I adore taking photos but am relying on my mobile phone for it at the moment - never going to take the best photos!

    1. I feel a camera is a real investment, worth every penny. But a phone suffices when cameras are not available :) thank you for stopping by. X
