MARLEY

16.01.20

He’s been with us for nearly 13 years, more commonly know between us as ‘Mars Bar’, aptly named by Ben abbreviating his name from ‘Jam Jar’.

Puts up a good fight when you put your hand inside a jumper and go in for the pounce!

BRUNI

13.01.21

Slowly approaching her first birthday, she’s almost full size. I love having a gecko in the house, completely harmless and great fun when she jumps between objects. It dawned on my a few days ago why I’ve always wanted a gecko as a pet. For those who grew up in the 80’s and 90’s, you might remember the little alien Puckmaren from a film called ‘Flight of the Navigator’? I think that’s where it all began!

PORTELET

08.01.21

Taking myself out of my comfort zone for this. One of my biggest setbacks in photography is approaching strangers and asking them to take their photograph. Maybe it’s the fear of rejection or even the pressure to get it right in a few click. That said, put a pint between us and I could happily chat for hours! Either way, from what I’ve read, the more you ask the easier it gets.

NORTHSIDE

06.01.21

Once again, forced into the night with a lack of inspiration. The power station is only used now as backup to meet demand in the winter months and it’s in these peak hours that the generators are running which in turn is the only time they produce the steam which for me helped to balance this shot out.

DEEP WINTER

01.01.21

If there was ever a good reason for me not to drink on new years eve then this would be it. Felt sub zero up here first thing, the roads were iced over and my hands were burning they were so cold! Sunrise wasn’t great but I saw a massive rain cloud moving in so waited another half hour and then the magic happened.

In tradition and to mark the end of another year, here’s our portrait on the beach. A bit rushed this year because of work and party’s but it’s the memories that count. Happy New Year everyone!
