France-based photographer Andie Wilkinson created the series ‘Close to Home’, an on-going series that revolves around rural family life in South West France. As the title suggests, the pictures were all taken from within a close radius of the photographer’s home and feature family, friends and neighboring farm animals. The series is put together by ‘Close to Home: Autumn’ and ‘Close to Home: Summer’.

‘Summer’ is more of a celebration, an expression of a sort of feral physical liberty that I wished for my children, an immersion in and celebration of the nature that we find ourselves living in.”
