New photo Couple share the sweet photo booth pictures they’ve taken annually for the past 18 YEARS – from bleached blonde hair as teens to two children and stellar careers

A COUPLE have popped back to a railway station photo booth to keep up a romantic tradition dating back to their first meeting nearly two decades ago.

Award-winning children’s author Giles Paley-Phillips met his future wife Michelle in 2000 and on a day out in Brighton had their picture taken in the booth at Brighton Station to remember it.

The first photo the couple took in 2000, when she was 18 and he was 23

The couple, from Seaford, East Sussex, have now had the SAME picture taken 18 years in a row, adding family members as they arrive.

The pictures are always taken around late October or early November.

They married in 2002 and have two children Elijah, 11, and Sonny, nine.

Elijah joined in his first photo booth picture in 2008 and Sonny in 2009.

Giles, 41, said: “Photo booths were popular in the early 2000s and although they have slowly faded, they bring back a lot of nostalgic memories.

“These days we can take as many pictures as we want until we are satisfied, but photo booths capture that one special moment.

“I posted my photo booth pictures on Twitter and I got more than 10,000 shares and likes.

“People said to me it’s a fantastic idea.

“We don’t do multiple pictures on the same occasion otherwise it won’t be special.

By 2009 there were two additions to the family

“We want to recreate the first time when we took the photo. Michelle and I had such a happy and silly time.

“Items can evoke certain memories. I still have a train pass that I used when I was at school.”

He spent a number of years performing around the UK in a band but it broke up in 2003 and he took up a number of odd jobs.

He then started writing children’s stories and his debut book, The Fearsome Beastie, won the People’s Book Prize and Bizziebaby Gold Award.

He has launched a podcast show, Blank, with comedian Tom Daly on Spotify, iTunes and Acast.

The programme looks at celebrities’ careers when things are not working out for them.

They have interviewed guests including author Jon Ronson and Michael Rosen, Gary Lineker and actress Amanda Abbington.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

SATC star Kim swears by gym sessions with Russian kettle bells (traditional cast-iron weights) and the South Beach Diet to give her the body she wants. To avoid overeating, Kim has a radical diet trick – squirting lemon juice on her leftovers – so she won’t carry on picking.

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
