Travelling anywhere almost feels a bit bizarre at the moment, doesn’t it? I had trips planned for April and May this year, both now cancelled, and I’m not even browsing SkyScanner in the bath any more.. I have the itch but there’s not much I can do about it..
Read MoreIt was my third time at Glastonbury, and (like I say every time..) it’s just the best place on earth. It’s a long story (that I won’t bore you with on here) but I unexpectedly ended up having a weekend free over Glastonbury weekend.. I left the date open as long as possible and then gave in and managed to get tickets fairly late in the day to join our existing ‘Glastonboro’ camping crew. It was an absolute dream.
Read MoreSomething a bit different on the blog today.. some personal travel and family photos from a recent trip I made to Ibiza with my two girls. I had a short break between work in the Easter holidays and this year is set to be my busiest ever during the Summer months.. I really wanted to have some quality time with my girls before wedding season really kicked off. Here’s how Ibiza looked for us..
Read MoreWe took a trip to Turkey in October half term - a rushed trip due to an airline going bankrupt and trying to book something (anything!) with 24 hours to go.. but, hey! It worked out OK - it was hot, there was plenty for the girls to do and we had a few days exploring too. Granted, it wasn’t the most beautiful area we’d ever visited but it was so good to have a break the four of us.
Read More…so much so, that I think this was my fifth visit to this beautiful city. This trip was my first where I arrived by Eurostar, though, which felt pretty exciting! As I’ve visited and seen most of the sights to ‘tick off the list’, it was wonderful to mainly wander, eat, drink and photograph this city. I went with my husband for my 30th birthday, and the only thing I especially wanted to do was to watch the sunset from the Eiffel tower.. and it was magical.
Read MoreI’ve waited so long to find the time to edit these! It’s what happens during wedding season.. you still itch to create your own personal work but actually processing and finding the time to edit and finish little projects on the side gets pushed to the bottom of the pile..
Read MoreThis August I had a rare weekend off, so as it drew closer I decided to embrace it and booked a camping trip for myself and my two girls. It was so intense working in the weeks before and after the trip (there’s still just so much going on in wedding season!) but it was worth every second. I booked a site in Saint Lunaire, near Dinard and Saint Malo in Brittany. We took a tandem bike and I brought my camera along to document the trip and take some travel photos.
Read MoreIt’s no wonder that’s it’s taken so long to find the time for another ‘Behind The Curtain’ during the Summer, but better late than never I guess? Summer has gone by in such a wonderful and busy blur that I’ve had to sit and go back through my calendar to help me remember what I actually did and when! Work gets slightly slower-paced from October and I’ll be able to escape from ‘the editing cave’ in time to celebrate my birthday next month, but Summer has been busy and wonderful, and here’s how it looked for me..
Read MoreSo! At the end of March and into April my eldest daughter and I took a trip together. If you follow me on Instagram at @sallythurrell or @sallytphotography you may be up to date with where we visited, what we saw and how it went.. and you can see the outline of our plans over on my personal family blog here.
