We spent a fabulous few hours at Formby beach a couple of weeks ago with Julie and Graeme who had travelled down from Glasgow for their engagement shoot. As we drove down the M62 dark ominous looking clouds loomed overhead-we were thankful to have packed a whole plethora of brollies to cover what we thought…
Well anyone who works from home with children will know that school holidays are a challenge-particularly the neverending summer hols! However, this year my two have been pretty good-maybe they are getting to the age where they can fend for themselves a bit more but it has mainly been fantastic Well today I will not…
I’m torn between two favourites – the one with the umbrella (I love the look of joy on her face – every umbrella day needs this look) and my other favourite the ‘sisters take a stroll’ one. I have a big sis and this pic just reminds me of us – even from the back they look like they’re whispering sister-things and striding off on an adventure together. Exactly what sisters are made for. Beautiful 
Thanks Claire- I love them both too but then I’m biased! Even though the sisters photo is 3 years od it is still framed nice and big in my hall-I love it
My favourite is dressing up the second image, she looks so pretty and reminds me of being her age and wearing my mums wedding dress.
My other favourite is fun with brollies as she has that perfect cheeky grin the colour of the photo is striking, what child doesnt love playing with a brollie i know my 3 year old is constantly outside with one when it rains haha. Amazing pictures xxx
Thanks Natalie – she looks like butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth-and they say the camera never lies
Too many gorgeous ones to choose from, but if you forced me I’d say the graffiti wall shot, very funky!!!
…….or the beach fairy xx
I just loooove the first photograph on the beach.
The natural feel of the shot along with the gorgeous blue sky and the colours of Eliza’s dress just give such an innocent feel about it. Such a little cutie, Happy Birthday Eliza!
Happy Birthday!!
I adore the ones on the beach….it reminds me of images of our family for generations…i love the sea!
Have fun x
Oh my god how can you expect me to choose one? they are all gorgeous! You are so lucky to have these beautiful pics of your girls to treasure;)I used to wear glasses as a child and my Mum used to always tell me to take them off for photos, it used to make me so mad, I would always look away in disgust, my specs were part of me! I realise now why my Mum used to do it, especially with my 70s style specs! Eliza looks so cool in hers though, they give her character and add to the colour in the pics. Wait a mo, let me have another look…..OK I can only narrow it down to 3, again the umbrella one. – love her cheeky smile and the colours are so girly. I also love both of the outdoor sunny flowers ones , the colour is stunning, they caught my eye the first time I saw them on your blog, oh I love the Spongebob one too…ooops that’s 4!
Hi Kay-this is why we never print any pics off because I can’t decide which ones I like the best! My specs were horrible as a child too-1970s pale ink NHS ones-with a matching patch-lovely!
I love this one laura-this is actually up on our wall
Thanks Emma-can’t beat rolling in sand-getting me in the mood for our mini hol to Weymouth next week!
Mine were prob the same style in blue Jenny, I didn’t mind them though at the time, it was the patch I used to hate!
My first ever blog comment for you! I think they are all absolutely stunning and the colours are amazing. I like any where she is wearing glasses as you can’t beat a funky pair of specs. I also love the beach butterfly one and the two sisters scene is adorable. Overall, I think the daffodils one is my favourite Happy (belated) birthday Eliza!! x
Thanks Beth-she now has a new pair of funky specs-at her age mishaps happen regularly! New ones very bling!
