As the seasons shift from summer sunshine to crisp Autumn mornings, it’s the perfect time to capture those everyday moments with a fun creative challenge. The September 2025 #MummyPhotoADay is here – a daily set of photo prompts to inspire your photography and storytelling throughout the month.
Whether you’re heading back to school, exploring coastal paths in Devon, or enjoying the first cosy days of sweater weather, these prompts are designed to help you see the beauty in ordinary moments. It’s not about being perfect – it’s about joining in, being creative and building a little community of people who love sharing snapshots of their lives.
Here’s how to take part:
- Save the prompt list below (or save it on Instagram).
- Post your photo each day on Instagram – or dip in when it suits you.
- Use the hashtag #mummyphotoaday so we can all find each other.
- Like, comment and support others who are joining in too.
