  • Ok people, I’ve peeked out the curtains and the weather is awful. Again. . So I say we extend Sunday and just stay in bed looking at pictures of flowers. Who’s with me? . . . #flowersandotherstories #lostinthelightclass #thephotographersnotebook #flowersmakepeoplehappy #excessivelydivertedbyflowers #simplystyledflowers #awhisperedbeauty #inspiredbylight #inasoftlight #poetryofsimplethings
  • The lovely Issy of @dantesceramics wedging clay in her studio. . It’s hard to put into words quite how privileged I feel to be invited into a maker’s studio to photograph or film them at work. . It’s entirely magical and I’m so happy to call it my work. It hands down beats that summer job I once had as a postman. I definitely walked three times further than necessary. My sense of direction is more about the scenic route than the logical and efficient path 😂 . . . #folkandstory #moodandcharacter #thesweetlifeunscripted #mybeautifulstories #lostinthelightclass
  • This is a spaniel who hasn’t had a proper walk for two days on account of “weather”. . He is strung so tightly he might ping at any moment. Ever alert for the jingle of the whistle and creaking of the door handle. . On the plus side (mine, not his) he is cleaner than he’s been for months. . I fear he will make sure to get extra muddy when we brave the fields today 🙈 . . . #thisdetailedlife #aestheticdogs #thesweetlifeunscripted #thislittlemoment_
  • I wasn’t going to buy any new clothes this year and then I saw these checked wide trousers in the @toast sale and knew they would make me feel all Katharine Hepburn. . So before January was out I had failed in my mission. My favourite item of Toast clothing is a pleated dress, about 20 years old and I think these trousers might have similar longevity, so I don’t feel too bad about my fail. . The jury is out on whether or not I look like Katharine Hepburn in the ensemble. I say yay, family members say bag lady. . And yes, that is a dead wreath I’m holding. No real reason but I feel Katharine Hepburn would have understood. . So tell me this - what makes you buy clothing? A need to replace something? The dopamine rush? A desire to channel Hepburn? . . . . #mybeautifulstories #postingunscripted #elegantlyknackered
  • I’ve been taking daffodils for granted. In the garden of every house I’ve lived in they’ve come up year in, year out. . They adorn the roadside verges and are cheap as chips to add in your supermarket trolley dash. . They are the first flowers I’ve had in the house for months as I’ve been making do with foraged greenery. And yet... . I took this photo and then felt it jarred on my grid. All that gaudy yellow and bright, bright green. Initially I desaturated like mad and then I told myself firmly off! No longer will I take the humble daff for granted. . Look at her glorious sunny face, so brave to venture out in all the weather, pushing through the wet, cold earth and bringing cheer. . . . . #flowerupyourlife #flowersandotherstories #myquietbeauty #inspiredbyflowers #heitermoments #beautifulblossoms #myquietbeauty #ofsimplematters #poetryofsimplethings #seasonspoetry #yellowisitmeyourelookingfor
