I love make believe, and children fill this role in my work so naturally. Put wings and a tutu on a little girl and she becomes a fairy. This was a playdate shoot I did with Megan Graham, a young gifted photographer in the area. She arranged for our little model and found the forest location with the pond. I made rag wings and tutus, and brought along some fun gear to bring our vision to life

I’ve had this shoot in my mind for over a year now! Back then I didn’t yet have my stop motion studio complete which I needed for some flying angel images I wanted. I also wanted a white flowing gown that didn’t look like a Halloween costume, which didn’t seem to exist anywhere in the world. I also wanted to do this with Abrey Adams because she’s a really good make up artist and I thought it would be fun to work with her on this. Jenna Widmer has a surreal beauty to her with those big blue eyes and her ivory skin and I just knew she’d be an amazing angel. So I ended up making the costume myself, and Abrey twisted the wire for the jewelry, and she also did Jenna’s hair and make up. I’m super excited with how these turned out!
