Abandoned House and more
I went on another photo adventure the other day. This time to a different section of Kent. As it turns out, on a fairly populated and traveled road there was a house that looked more like a time capsule than anything else.

They liked it, and like our style together so they’ve asked us to do the same thing for them this time around. The goal now, is to give it a summer like feel, so I’ve been...
