I recently had the chance to browse through Susannah
Conway’s inspiring book, This I Know. Susannah’s blog, business and book
were forged out of grief, and yet her words and Polaroid pictures are uplifting
and beautiful. One exercise in the book suggests documenting one day in
photographs. I took this as a way to appreciate the little things in life, the
insignificant moments that pass you by. Had I not been documenting that day would
I have chosen to walk a different way after the school run, and discover a farm
with ponies? Would I have appreciated the pleasure of coffee in my favourite
mug or the prettiness of bubbles when I washed the dishes? Probably not. (I
hate washing the dishes!) Susannah says, don’t worry about being an amazing
photographer, so I didn’t. I just snapped all these with my iPhone.

Please watch my slideshow and share a moment with me
appreciating the little details of a narrowboat wife’s life. I would love to add music to this and future videos so any musicians out there who'd like to collaborate in return for links, get in touch :-)
