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!

365/7 week fifteen - holga-tastic

I decided to revive my holga to trial it out over the past few weeks. I took it to a wedding, wandered around Millport with it, then took some random shots around the house and whilst out and about.

It's tough to get the right focal distance with it... but sometimes I think that adds to the image. I just took a point & shoot approach (or asked Paul to point and shoot!) and these are the results.

a favourtie I had to share... josh & freya.

Have been taking lots of photos of my new niece and my nephew recently and had to share one of my favourites!

Josh kisses Freya loads... before he goes out, before he goes to play his x-box, after he comes in from football, just when he comes down the stairs...and I love the way Freya is blissfully unaware of her big brother smothering her in love and how delicate Josh is when he gives her a kiss.

Just one of my faves I had to share... x
