I arrived at seven, while the kitchen was still the warmest room in the house, and stayed while Katie and Tom made pancakes with their two kids.
Lucy and Joel were both shy with the camera, so I did what I always do: put the camera down for the first half hour and let them get bored of me. By the time the second batch of pancakes was on the plate, I could take a few photos of them eating around the table.
Joel was telling me about his drawing of a fox, and Lucy had decided I should see her room. Naturally, the family moved towards Lucy’s room and I took some lovely shots as they explored books and played together in the morning light.
