After seven years in Durham, this wonderful family was preparing for a move back to America. Before they left, they wanted photographs of the life they'd built here.


So we started off in their home.

Then followed the route they'd walked countless times into the city centre — with a quick look in the castle grounds.

This session wasn't just about marking a move. It was about preserving a chapter of family life exactly as it was.


The home they loved, the streets they knew by heart, and the everyday moments that made Durham feel like theirs.


One chapter ending. Another about to begin. And a beautiful record of every day life in between. ♥️
