POSTS STORIES REELS

40

For some people, it's a number to fear. For me, it's become a gift.
I remember turning 21 and feeling completely lost. I remember turning 30 and having a real meltdown because I thought time was running away from me. I worried about getting older instead of appreciating the privilege of getting older.
Now I've reached 40, and I've never felt more grateful.
Life has taught me that happiness isn't found in the big moments we spend years chasing. It's hidden in the ordinary moments we often take for granted.
A hug from your children. A conversation with someone you love. A sunrise. A peaceful mind. Good health. Another chance to wake up and try again.
I've learned that not everything has to go to plan. Some of the greatest opportunities come from the hardest setbacks. The people who hurt you teach you strength. The people who love you remind you what really matters.
As I've grown older, I've worried less about what people think and focused more on becoming someone I'm proud of. I've learned to have faith, to trust the journey, and to let go of what I can't control.
If you're reading this and feeling lost, wondering if you're behind in life, you're not. Your story isn't over. Keep believing. Keep showing up. Keep creating opportunities. The next chapter could be the one that changes everything.
I'm entering my forties with more peace than fear, more gratitude than regret, and more excitement than ever before.
Here's to living fully, loving deeply, and never taking the little things for granted.
The best chapters are still to come. ❤️

Much love to everyone who sent their well wishes 🙏 by @johnfitz69

Was looking over my photography today from the last 12 months and longer, we all start somewhere, I've thrown some favourites from early days to now.

I've so much on this year, things I never even thought I'd be part of.

2025 for me was to stop saying no, to let go of everything I'm trying to control in my normal day to day life, it's working a treat

To all the photographers, videographers, creators, anybody who's working on themselves no matter the role, keep pushing , keep making mistakes, keep improving and more importantly keep being you 💪 👍 😊

Heavy studio sessions of late by @johnfitz69

39 looks good on you, 39 today!!! 🎂🎉🎊🎁🥳

And after 15 years together, I'd still choose you.
You've been my person through everything life has thrown at us. You've seen every version of me, stood beside me through the difficult times, celebrated the good times and somehow always managed to keep me grounded.
You're an amazing mum, an incredible partner and the person who makes our family what it is.
I don't say it enough, but I appreciate you more than you know.
I'm glad I met you. I'm glad I found you. And I'll never stop being grateful that it's you. ❤️
Happy Birthday, Charlotte.
I love you. Always. ❤️ by @johnfitz69

Nice one @johnfitz69 for the photos from sparring this week🙏🏻💯 Thursday classes are on as always people! Following on from yesterdays calf kick class with some angles & additions as well🙏🏻 kids thai 5pm, adults thau 6pm🔥 by @johnfitz69

Was great to get down to Skem Muay Thai & Martial Arts Centre Ltd last night, what a set up there and great bunch of lads

Literally pushing my camera to its limits with the low lighting and fast action

Honestly not saying this because I done photography there last night but what an environment and community, everyone worked hard together, supported each other and watching the coaches get really involved was awesome to watch, the lads listened and took on board and cracked on.

Thanks for the shoot last night, really enjoyed it.

Manchester After Dark 📸
Manchester doing what Manchester does best… proper street vibes.
Rollerskating, dancing, music, a DJ bringing the atmosphere, and people simply enjoying the moment. 🎶🛼🔥
These are the kind of scenes I love photographing — real people, real energy and those little moments that make a city feel alive.
Shots from a brilliant atmosphere around Manchester. No posing, no staging… just the city doing its thing.
This is Manchester. ❤️

🏁 Full throttle at Three Sisters! 🏁

A day of speed, noise and plenty of action at Three Sisters Race Circuit, Wigan.

Capturing motorsport is something I’m really enjoying getting into — freezing those moments when everything happens in a split second. 📸🔥

More motorsport photography to come…

Hello, Darling… ☎️
She knew exactly who was calling.
She just wasn't sure they were ready for the answer.
A little vintage glamour.
A little danger.
Bang Bang. 🥀
