Ever feel like just shaking things up? Maybe things are running like clockwork, maybe they’ve gotten a bit stale, but for some reason, a change is due. When I find myself a little too comfortable I like to break out and push my boundaries. Be that through education.. art or experimentation, It helps me refocus and I’m always better for the change of pace. What do you do when you need a little shaking up?

We’re at our best when we’re growing, but that growth often comes with growing pains. I’m setting my sights on expanding my brand and the struggle is definitely real. What’s on the other side of the pain is always worth it, though, and this is your (and my) friendly reminder that it’s ok to stop trying to fit things in that you now may have outgrown.
🌱 Growth is after all ever changing and ever developing.. What are you ready to outgrow, friend? One of my favorite shots from my shoot with Tyler. Loving this look.

I just love capturing patterns.. and while paddling in the ocean the light hit the water "just so" Love the light.. We gotta protect our oceans and beat plastic pollution. BFFP -Break free from plastic- 🌊 Every time I stand before a beautiful beach, its waves seem to whisper to me: If you choose the simple things and find joy in nature’s simple treasures, life and living need not be so hard.” – Psyche Roxas-Mendoza 💙 www.yvettephotography.co.uk . . . . . . #ourocean #photography #northwales #nature #WaterIsLife #water #life #art #oceanart #waterripples #lightandwater #light #naturallightphotography #abstract #minimal #oceanvibes #salty #epicocean #oceanwater #quotes #mood #bluemind #wales #reflecting #reflection_creative_pictures #create #creative Give me one night.. 🕊90's chick.. guess the tune!

I shot this as a total fluke.. i was watching a flock of starlings and they were so CUTE! real social little birds and one of the most incredible things is they fly in flocks often creating balls in the sky. So anyway! i caught this just in time as they took off and flew right past me. Shot on a 50mm (i think!) my go-to lens it's a 1.4. #heaven . . . . . . #fly #flying #soar #bird #birds #flock #bluesky #blue #northwalesphotography #minimal #clouds We reached mid week.. You should be at the top of your game now, or drowning in jobs and paperwork!
So tell me, what do you love about mid week? Or if you're too zapped to type just send me some psychic vibes I'll try and filter through your thoughts... 😆 ☁️ Hey.. here's a weird thought. Do you think that say in.... mmmm 10 or 15yrs they'd have figured out how to transfer thoughts to wifi. Imagine! The world will be looking very different then I think. Our thoughts manifesting to control our data, emails etc. 🌌 Now that's a mid week thought! Happy Wednesday friend. I hope you're having a great week so far! Just say hi if you feel like it or send me those vibes on a higher frequency... Love and ✌☁️😘☯️ . . . . . . #thoughts #wednesday #photography #northwales #nature #atmosphere #environment #skyphotography #sky #clouds #frequency #mindup #mind #mindbodysoul #mindfulness #powerofthought #powerofthemind #mindsetmatters #mindset #mindsetiseverything #cloudlight #love Much like pulling all sorts of ingredients together to bake a cake, my natural light photography requires tons of preparation and work behind the scenes. First, I gather the details of our shoot location with details of our surrounding environment like key areas that offer some interesting points of focus and which are favorable for us to use within our shoot and then finally I will research our local up to date weather predictions and the conditions expected for our chosen day.
🌞 Only then I can create a custom plan to schedule an allotted time which offers the best conditions for light. Without these key items, I couldn’t deliver the level of quality my clients have grown to expect! 📸 Do you like a behind the scenes look like this?

When i first started documenting the plastic pollution crisis a couple of years ago, Just by snapping plastic washed up or floating on the ocean.. I really had no idea the UK would back the movement like it has. 📸 Personally I believe this is mainly due to the work of Sir David Attenborough. His documentary Blue Planet showed first hand the level of devastation the plastic pollution crisis was having globally on various marine and wildlife species. 🌊 Images of birds feeding their young ones plastic.. whales dying with tons of internal plastic. The viral video of a sea turtle with a plastic straw stuck up it's nose, it's nose bleeding and it's eyes wincing as divers tried to dislodge it. There are so many images ingrained into my memory but I think there is one image my mind draws back to it is the one of a sea horse holding onto a plastic cotton bud... 🌊 I know some conservationists don't like fuzzy happy talk. They imply you are almost living in a fantasy or out of touch with reality if you start talking "Hope". But I am a person of hope. I believe the only way forward is by innovation. And innovation doesn't need to be morbid, straight or tight lipped. Innovation is expressive.. exploratory and full of ambition. 🌊 Although I know we have major changes and challenges to overcome to clean up this mess we face, what makes me hopeful is seeing the sheer volume of people from all walks of life rallying together to put pressure on industry to demand change. Taking bold action and creating a change for future generations. 🌍 📸 @yve.lou @unenvironment @unfccc @unwomen #EarthLens Mind
Relationships Career Finances Social life Spiritual life Physical health Community Vision Aims Dreams Goals Purpose Learning Travel.. etc.. 📸 With so many factors swirling around in my head, how do I prioritize?? A friend once introduced me to to the 80/20 rule, Tim Ferriss I heard swears by it... so what exactly is it???? ⬇️ In a nut shell it's basically allocating your efforts to the 20% most productive aspects and in theory it will execute 80% worth of results. This sounds almost to me like = assign your attention to the jobs that need to be done. Jobs that bring you/your business value. But Isn't this different for everybody??? Yeah! 🌱 There is no right way, just your way.. keep growing. The thing with each and every success story is, each individual has a different account.. a different method that worked and a different (but often maybe similar) philosophy. Once you make it, you will also have a testimony to what works for you. 💙 What works for me.. having multiple journals I write ideas, visions.. aims.. then looking back every so often and seeing that a once scribbling in a journal has manifested into something tangible. It all starts with an idea. 💡 ☀️ Not all the best ideas come from the shower.. some come from the bed! 😎 So pleased to share a recent project I’ve been involved with. It’s a project called “our social networks” by mencap cymru. couples were interviewed, audio taken and then booths set up around the local area with photographs of the couples alongside.
For James and Caroline below the area is Wrexham. There are posters displayed in the cathedral, the museum, smoke house and others. Two of the images below were used for a poster which is displayed in the smokehouse. I feel privileged to be involved with this beautiful project and I’m so happy to share with permission from James and Caroline my favourite images from our time together. I shot these photos at Derwen Collage, within the grounds we found a cute apple orchard. 📸 Yvette Louise So pleased to share a recent project I’ve been involved with.
