As I posted previously Filey is a special place to me and holds many fond memories. We only went in a very small part of it with Beth and Kathryn however - in and around Glen Gardens and then down the steps to the beach at the end of the bay. The tide was high though and so we didn't actually go onto the beach.
Kathryn was a delight to photograph - always smiling and very willing to pose when we asked her to. Beth was a little more self conscious and I think she would rather have been anywhere else other than with us having her photo taken that day! As soon as the session finished she was off to meet her friend for a sleepover.
It reminded me a little of myself at a similar age on a holiday with my parents in Colwyn Bay, Wales. I kept a diary and wrote in it "A boring day" and the day after..."Another boring day...." I was difficult to keep amused. My mum and dad had brought us along with my Aunt and Uncle and their children of similar ages to myself and my brother and sister on an activity holiday. The highlight of the whole holiday was when I signed all the adults up for all the in house sports tournaments they were running that week - which included bowls, golf and tennis amongst other things. They were all mortified! My mum won the tennis tournament though and I was very proud of her (still am!) and we still have the trophy to this day. We all laugh about it now. Perhaps Beth will lament about the shoot one day and smile.
