Our time away on holiday several weeks ago was cram packed full of great activities. As well as filming two music videos, not including our second version of ‘Fight Song’, relaxing on the sand, paddling around the beautiful salt water lake in a canoe, and just generally spending time together, Sophie and I also found an evening to go out and take some photos, just for fun.

We’ve finally had time to go through all the photos from our little sunset photoshoot. Sophie somehow managed to take over a thousand photos, so there were plenty to look at! The photos in this post are just some of my favourites that I really wanted to share with you all. There are so many nice ones it’s so hard to choose just a couple!

Sunset is the best time of day to go out and take photos. The light is just right to create an amazing atmosphere, and the beach makes such a beautiful background. The section of beach we occupied was pretty much deserted apart from me, Sophie, and Gemma-Rose who came along to keep us company and enjoy the last of the sun.

There were so many little nooks around the beach to use for our photos. A dead tree lay across white sand while long grasses waved to the side near the edge of the water.  With the sun hanging low in the sky and a breeze blowing, it was so peaceful.

Of course, you can’t take a thousand photos without getting more than a few bad, slightly off, or more than slightly ridiculous ones as well. And we got some silly ones! Maybe next week I’ll share a few of the rejects. They’re almost as good as the sensible ones!

I’d love to know what you thought of these photos. Which is your favourite? Would you like to see some of the silly photos as well?
