MyLittleLoves By The Sea x

We had a fantastic week last week when MyLittleLoves headed to Cornwall and Devon for a photo shoot!


Some lovely new products have been delivered to MyLittleLoves HQ recently so i thought what a great idea it would be combining a family holiday with the chance to photograph some of the lovely products from our summer collection.....on the beach!!


While driving around the Cornish coast we stumbled across St Ives beach, we had never been before and instantly fell in love with its gorgeous sandy beaches and fabulous views across the bay.


  While little Spencer got stuck in building sandcastles i went for a walk with my camera and a bag full of gorgeous goodies!

My new hobby is photography, i only purchased my new camera a couple of months ago but i have become addicted to taking photographs.

As MyLittleLoves is purely an online shop i have really begun to appreciate the importance of a good photograph.

As the customer is unable to touch and feel the products my camera is my best friend and the most important tool i have.

    
I love the tranquility of being down on the beach alone with my camera, listening to the waves and breathing in that gorgeous smell of fresh air and seaweed.


This is my favourite photograph from my photo shoot in St Ives.

I came across this stunning fishing boat stranded on the sea bed, waiting patiently for the sea to return. 

I dressed it with products from the website a gorgeous East of India wooden Seaside bunting and a pretty beach sign from Giddy Kipper and let the camera tell the story.  


Have a little peek at our finished photographs in the Gone To The Beach category at
