Springtime means lambing season, and so it meant the perfect time to head down to Romney in Kent to photograph Kristina at Romney Marsh Wools at their beautiful farm.
As a photographer I have the privilege of meeting such inspiring and hard-working independents, and Kristina and her husband Paul are no exception. A busy farm with 1,200 Romney ewes, and 150 merino Ewes, results in excpetional produce ranging from soft throws to hand soaps, all lovingly made in the UK.
It’s a beautiful part of the world Romney, huge flats spans of fields and waterways, and with that comes great light, so photographing around there is a dream.
The Leica M240 came out for the shoot along with 35mm and 50mm primes from Voigtlander, who really do make incredible lenses. I’ve said this before, but photographing on a rangefinder camera is such a great experience. But I’ll save the camera talk for another post!
Thanks to Kristina for her time (and also for letting me have a quick cuddle with one of the little lambs!).
