And in a nod to that occasion, on the first day of 2025, five generations of the same family have again been captured on camera.

Featured on this occasion at a birthday celebration are baby Lawson-Kayne in the arms of great, great granny Sharron. Sitting on the arm of the chair is the baby’s mother Anastascia Walsh, behind her is Kirsty Walsh, granny of the baby and Anastacia’s mother, then on the other side at the back is great, granny Juanita Wallace, Kirsty’s mother.
