Essex Newborn Lifestyle Photography by Farlie Photography Walking in to newborn baby’s homes is such a sweet and special thing. The hush. The muslins, blankets and pastel soft toys scattered. The elated smiles twinged with nerves. Tea cups and toast crumbs from snatched breakfasts taken too early or too late. Cards and gift parcels strewn […]

Houchins Essex Wedding Photographer, Farlie Photography. Hannah and Mark started planning their day with me some time ago from Pakistan.

April really put the 365-ness in to this 365 project. The relentlessness and regardlessness is the point of the project. Pushing through and picking up the camera regardless is the point. Taking less than your best photos and photos that deviated from your intentions are the point. Distracted, time pressured, heartbroken by life, exhausted by […]
I love how old things crumble. And doesn’t the salt air and coastal wind do it more gracefully than anything? The fading, cracking, peeling, rusting and crumbling down. The beautiful returning to earth. I love how it all suggests stories and brims with a life lived. How we lean in to things that sit in […]

Project 365 March round-up… And through it we marched; March. This almost aggressively cold month. Taking it’s time to see out the last of lockdown number three.
