365/7 - week eighteen - London Loves

London loves The way people just fall apart London loves The way you just don't stand a chance London loves The mystery of a speeding car

Okay, a bit of a theme going on with my recent post titles linking to some of my favourite songs, but would you think I was weird if I told you I often think in music lyrics and associate images with lyrics or song titles?...thought so!

Anyway this one felt apt after spending a long weekend in London town. I ♥ London (I don't need a t-shirt to declare it). I love everything about it. I lived there for just over a year and had the best time and one of the best summers I've ever had. Most of my friends still live there and I will forever associate it with sunshine and good times and this weekend didn't fail to disappoint!

I was in London to be a bridesmaid and a photographer at my best friend Emma's wedding. Paul and I spent the weekend catching up with friends, wandering around Soho, eating (mostly asian) food and enjoying the sunshine...and there was a lot of sunshine!

This photo was taken whilst we were on a boat trip to Greenwich (a great way to see the city from a different perspective). The young girl was a tourist who I assume was still caught up with Royal Wedding fever... surely there is no other reason you would wear a union-jack shirt?!

365/7 - week seventeen - sunshine of your love

This weekend has been absolutely glorious!

Everything just looks and feels different when the sun shines. Glasgow! just looks and feels different when the sun shines.

Paul and I sat in the park for hours this weekend, doing nothing. It was bliss. We people watched, had a bite to eat, Paul snoozed for a bit, I took my shoes off (I love being barefoot and feeling the grass under my feet) and took some photos...there is no other way I'd rather spend my day.

I've made a little 'sunshine soundtrack' on my iphone for my walk to work (now that the sun is shining, I've ditched the car) and started it off with one of favourite songs... this is it. enjoy.

365/7 week sixteen - lois & rachel

This weekend I joined my sister and brother-in-law in the park with their family... my nieces Lois and Rachel, and nephew Alfie to take some family portraits.

We just wandered around the gorgeous Pollock Country Park with me shooting the girls and Alfie messing around. These photos of Lois and Rachel are some of my faves. The girls are really close and have a great laugh together and I think I've been lucky enough to capture that.

But I do get a little freaked out at how old both of them look in these shots...it starting to make me feel old!
