I’ve been away from Instagram for quite a while.
Somewhere along the way, I fell a little out of love with the platform. The constant changes, trying to keep up with the algorithm and feeling as though every post had to fight for its place slowly took the joy out of creating.
At the same time, I started a new job that has kept me wonderfully busy and demanded a great deal of my attention. So, for a while, Essy’s Pictures became quiet.
But I kept missing it.
I missed making beautiful things. I missed collecting ideas, creating imagery and sharing the small details that make everyday life feel warmer, more inspiring and a little more special.
For quite some time, I had been wondering how I could return to that feeling in a way that would remain joyful and manageable. A place where I could bring together everything I love, without feeling as though I had to constantly keep up.
That is how Essy’s Essentials came to life.
A new editorial world on the Essy’s Pictures website, filled with seasonal living, slow and cosy moments, beauty, travel, recipes, thoughtful rituals, beautifully organised living and practical, creative ways to use AI in everyday life.
It is a place for everything that inspires me — and hopefully, a place that will inspire you too.
The website is now live, and I would love for you to take a look.
