We don't mean to sound like that ex-boyfriend who's suddenly decided to jump back into your life, but - have you missed us?!
We wanted to update you on some exciting new projects we are working on under the TDL umbrella and to see how you feel about these developments.
After our last publication, we knew that we couldn't keep going with the magazine.
We absolutely loved it, but the amount of work it took to put together was becoming increasingly difficult with our busy schedules.
However, we didn't want to let go of YOU lovely lot - our incredible community.
And so we've spent the last 18 months (that sounds like a long time, doesn't it?!) trying to figure out how we can celebrate you and your lovely work, without the heavy, admin time-suck that comes with the magazine.
We've realised that the thing you guys love most about TDL is the opportunity to get your work out in the world, and (most importantly) published in a beautiful, tangible way.
And you also love the inspiration you get from seeing other people's work and reading about how they create their art.
Would you like your work to be published in a beautiful book?
And so we thought - why not look at producing something more permanent than a magazine. How about creating a gorgeous, one-of-a-kind book.
A gorgeous publication featuring your work. Something you can have that will truly last the test of time. That you can display in your homes, gift to your friends and family and page through for inspiration.
In order to make this as easy as possible, we'd like to start putting something together with some of the images you have already sent us - across the TDL editions.
Once we have an idea how that's going to look, we may then ask for new submissions from you lovely lot to add something new and different.
This project won't be something that happens right now (we're hoping to put something together early next year).
But what we want to know right now is, are you guys in? We need you to be on board to make this work! Head over to the poll below and let us know what YOU want from us!
How do you feel about in-person workshops?
The other thing we have been mulling over is holding some in-person workshops. Bex is already doing this with her brilliant Camera Chameleons Retreats (the second of which she is running in June 2025 in Manchester with the amazing Natalie Robinson who she met through TDL!)
You can find out more about Camera Chameleons by clicking the link below.
And then Kirsty and Bex have just launched their Wanderlust Getaways: A creative escape for photographers in Paris and Venice (two of the most iconic cities in the world!) And they are thinking about bringing them under the TDL umbrella.
Which of the following would you like more of in future from TDL? (You can select more than one option if you like!)
I'd love to be published in a coffee table book
I prefer the original TDL magazine format
I'm interested in the idea of in-person workshops
You can vote for more than one answer.
As a bookaholic, I would be thrilled to have a TDL coffee table book.
I am SOOOOO pumped to hear this great news!!! I have missed you guys. Welcome back! And I would be thrilled to hop the pond and see you guys for a in person workshop. This year it's my son's graduation but please keep it going.
I would definitely want to be apart of a coffee table book. It would be a thing of beauty ❤️🌈
So glad you are back ..can't wait to see that publication that will pass the test of time...I don't. Think I can travel anytime soon but will cheer you on from here...maybe a an online forum for 2&3 with different experts on different topics?
I've never been published with you but have always aspired to - I would love to for my art to be considered for a coffee table book - what a brilliant idea! Unfortunately at this time I am not financially able or free to travel for your epic in person workshops. I'm thankful you're back!
