Emotional, tipsy goodbyes. A long, rainy, podcast-filled drive to Kerry. A cosy afternoon tea as dusk closes in and a fire crackles.

We were sitting on the couch, Ben was about to settle into some Rocket League (great fun btw), and I was about to tackle the mammoth pile of Sunday papers when that gorgeous, golden autumn light started streaming in. So we grabbed our cameras and strolled over to our local

A few pics and overs from my feature on the beautiful Côte d'Azur for the latest issue of Cara Magazine. It was one of the most effortlessly picturesque places I have ever been to, and, even at high noon, had the most stunning light. I loved the pastel-coloured
