Erin Farrell Photography

1. Why do you love this image?
It captures something that truly can never be captured again. The moment you meet your child is such an amazing experience and I wish all mothers could have a shot of them at this precious time.

2. What were your settings with this image?
1/200, 4.0, ISO 1250

About Photography…
3. What brought you to photography?
I’ve always been interested in photography (my mom even had a darkroom in our basement), but never even considered it as a business until I was engaged and planning my own wedding and researching wedding photographers.

4. What type of Photography do you specialize in and why?
Probably more weddings, but I’ve been doing a lot more portraits over the last couple years.

About your life?
5. Outside of photography, what are your interests/hobbies?
I have two kids (with a third on the way) that keep me pretty busy, but when I do have some free time, I love to do DIY projects around the house.

6. Who or what inspires you?
Capturing my children’s personality at each stage of their life has been my driving force. This time goes by so quickly and this is the best way for me to remember who they were at each age.

7. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, doing anything at all, where would you be, what would you be doing, and why?
Anything at all? I would be relaxing at a warm (but not too hot) resort on the beach.

8. What song can you listen to over and over again?
Changes all the time — but right now it’s “Lead Me” by Sanctus Reel.

9. Can you tell me some quirky or little known fact about yourself?
I have an uncanny ability to find 4-leaf clovers. I have horrible eyesight. I like to hold M&M’s in my fist until they get all melted on the inside, then pop them in my mouth one at a time and crack them in half with my teeth.

10. If you weren’t a photographer, what other profession would you pursue?
A preschool teacher, no doubt. I taught for about 8 years before having my daughter and I really loved it.

Thanks Erin!
