*Half term*
usually means doing everything for everyone.

This workshop was different. We sat down at The Duke, warmed up with a drink, and turned a simple phone photo into a fine art print that felt like a real family keepsake. Kids crafted right next to us, made little friendships, and the mums got that rare thing: adult conversation without rushing.

Two mums even left with a beautiful gift for Grandma’s birthday.
If you want the next one, DM me PRINT and I’ll pop you on the first-to-know list.

Half term plans, Wanstead mums? 💛

I’m running a Mum & Me Fine Art Print + Frame Workshop at The Duke, Wanstead — made for beginners and perfect if you fancy a calm, creative couple of hours together.

You’ll turn a phone snap of your child into a beautiful fine art print and go home with it framed (proper keepsake vibes). While you’re printing, your little one will be crafting right next to you at the kids’ table — so you both get to create.

✅ All materials included
☕ Hot drink on me
🖼 Fine art print + frame included
🎨 Kids’ craft activity included
👩‍👧 1 adult + up to 2 kids per ticket

🌈 The Real Story

We have been talking about, say cheese, the comparison, the missing mum, the bribe.

You don’t need perfect pictures — you need real ones that tell your family’s story. 💕 That’s what I teach at Mums Photo Academy — capturing the beauty in your everyday chaos.

No Poses- Just Presence

If your little one never sits still… never smiles on cue… never “cooperates” for a photo —
please know this:

You’re not doing anything wrong.
And your child is not being difficult.

Kids aren’t meant to pose.
They’re meant to explore, feel, discover, move, wonder.

And that’s exactly where the most beautiful photos come from —
the moments when they forget the camera even exists.

So instead of asking for a smile, just watch them.
Follow their curiosity.
Let them lead.

You’ll capture the kind of memories that feel alive.

If you want more gentle tips to photograph your child as they truly are, follow along — you’re in the right place. 🤍

We spend so much time trying to get the “perfect” photo…
the perfect smile, perfect angle, perfect background.

But here’s the truth, mum:

Your child’s real emotions — the giggles, the grumpy face, the wobble, the wonder —
those are the moments that will melt your heart in 10 years.

Not the polished ones.
Not the staged ones.
The real ones.

So let them be themselves.
Capture what’s actually happening.
That’s where the magic lives.

If you want more simple ways to photograph your child’s real personality, follow along — this journey is just getting started. 🤍

Woodford mums on mat leave… this is for you 💛
If your days feel like nappies, feeds, and trying to drink a cuppa before it goes cold… come and do something for you (with your little one right beside you).

I’m Rosie and I’m shaping as a gentle weekday Art & Play in Woodford — think stay & play, but with simple, gorgeous messy creativity and keepsakes you’ll actually want to keep. No pressure, no perfection… just tiny hands, big feelings, and a little slice of your family story.

DM me “WOODFORD WEEKDAY” and I’ll add you to the priority list and message you first with the venue + dates.

If you’ve got mum friends on mat leave nearby, forward this to them — coming together makes it even more special 💛
