My Years

In Photos

At a time when the world can feel loud, heavy and overwhelming — this is a doorway to stillness, to beauty, to hope.

A daily moment captured on a simple phone, but with eyes wide open to the magic hidden in the ordinary.

What began as a personal ritual has grown into an invitation: to slow down, to notice more, and to remember that light still lives quietly in the everyday.

These photos have inspired a series of books — and every penny from their sales is donated to two local charities that I care deeply about.

If this space gives you even a flicker of peace, joy or wonder, then it has already done exactly what it was made to do.

“Through this website I hope that I can help to instill more love and respect for the countryside and nature, especially among the younger generation. Although the message is same for everyone of any age”

pAckaging

Please note I will be sending books out from home and I am keen to reuse any packaging, so that deliveries can be a bit more sustainable. Apologies in advance if you wonder why your parcel may be in a 2nd hand wrapping.

Thank you.

Opening Hours

Because my book business isn’t my main focus for work and is hopefully a way of making a bit of extra money for my charities, any messages and orders I receive may get to me at funny times, so please be patient.

I will get back to you as soon as I can.
