Siblings – July 2017

Last Updated on 13 July 2020 by Colette

This month’s Siblings photos were taken fairly early on – I decided to take full advantage of our trip to Alton Towers (which I’ve yet to write about!) to try and get some photos of my little gang.  I loved the bright blue fencing near the Go Jetters ride and thought I was going to nail my shots within minutes – turned out that Ben really couldn’t be bothered to smile for my camera, and I probably should have take his hat off him so you could actually see his miserable face . . .

But still, they make me laugh.  And they can’t all be happy and smiley or even looking at the camera all the time can they?

School finishes for summer next week and I can’t wait to have these three to myself – though I might change my mind about that by the end of the month!  I know Amy in particular will love to have Ben and Chloe home from school and I’ve got so much planned for them!  (Keep an eye on my youtube channel for our weekly summer vlogs)

  1. Never work with children or animals!!! I’ve got a good handful of photos over the years with at least one small person making a properly grumpy face, but I’m certain that in years to come those will be the ones that we linger over the longest!

  2. Ha, they never cooperate when you really want them to do they! I love that you just went with it though, and his expression does add a little something extra to the story of the photos! x

  3. Ha! This is why I hardly ever try and take posed photos of my two any more 🙂
