Lockdown 2020 | From my family to yours | Winton, Bournemouth

Uncategorised

Hi there,

These past few weeks have been so challenging for our world. It is so hard to face each day with so much uncertainty.

It’s been hard to pay attention to anything other than the news… Your health and safety, family, and overall-well being should be your number one priority and I want you to know that they are mine.

It has absolutely warmed my heart to see our community come together with love and support, albeit virtual. šŸ˜‰

I want you to know that during this time I will be following the government regulations regarding social isolation and social distancing. Aby Rafter Photography will be back up and running and ready to capture your family moments as soon as it is safe to do so.

During a time like this we are reminded just how important family is. I can’t wait to have the absolute honour of capturing yours when this is all over. It is my life work and purpose to provide you with honest, moment driven, artistic, photographs and I feel even more certain of that now.

I hope that you are taking this time to focus on the simpler things in life. I know I am. I will be in touch again for bookings when things get back to “normal” around here. I can’t wait to capture you and yours so very soon! For now I will try to use my blog to document some of my family moments, in and around the chaos of homeschooling and day to day life! 

Take care, 

Aby Xx

Awake shots are just as sweet as the sleepy ones, Awake shots are just as sweet as the sleepy ones, don’t you think? There’s something so special about those wide-eyed moments - when they’re quietly taking in the world, or maybe just you. Swipe to see the second photo, I swear he was just calmly studying me. My heart! 🄺
