We take photos for our walls

When I went to university in 2015, I covered the walls of my room with blue tac’d photos of my family, friends and the recent places I had visited.

Photographs for me were a way to stay connected; to transport back to the tangible feelings that a memory may hold, triggered by the sight of them on my walls. It was a way to take home with me, and it worked.

Now in 2021, 4 moves later, I have a husband, 2 children and a bump… and my walls do not have photos covering them, but I take more now than I ever did back then. Photo’s are a way of documenting our life.
Various walls have twine and pegged photos, which we swap out when we feel change is needed. They display activities, family, friends and our own every day life – to me, there is little more precious than preserving that for my children; so they grow with the memories and reminders of their life, and have stories attached to each one too.

Some recent ones 💕
