I had a break from worrying about Freya starting full time school this week when I helped out on a cover photo shoot for the fantastic Norwich Resident magazine.
The photographer, Julia Holland, arranged for her friend, Kelly, to bring his truck as a prop for the vintage-style shoot. Seriously, how cool is he? We had a lovely chat about the truck while we were watching Julia hard at work.
It’s one of those times I wished I had my big camera on me but I know my shot wouldn’t be anywhere near as good as Julia’s. She just has something magical about her work. Check out her amazing portrait of Kelly, shared on Instagram, here. I couldn’t resist taking one on my iPhone though.

Oooh and please do pop back here tomorrow because I’ve quizzed best-selling author Heidi Swain for my latest Behind The Book post.
Lo that old truck, it makes such a great photo, I hope the shoot went well for you

This is a very cool photo. Nothing about it says ‘Norwich’ to me. It looks like it was taken somewhere in the USA.
Hope Freya is getting on well at school and you aren’t worrying too much!

Hi Tara, how exciting for you and what a fab photo. I agree with Sarah, the photo has an American feel to it. The truck and the mean moodiness of its driver makes it great!

Ah yes, I see what you mean, both taking pics of vintage vehicles! Both looking quite moody as well, if I may say so. I take it Freya settled in well? Certainly hope so.

Thank you. Apparently that’s the colour they were painted in the factory as a base coat.
