“When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies. And now when every new baby is born its first laugh becomes a fairy. So there ought to be one fairy for every boy or girl.”
James Matthew Barrie (Peter, in Peter Pan, act 1)
As we grow older it gets harder for us to be in that world of imagination like we were as children. Harder, but not impossible.
Having children, or working with children, revitalizes that playfullness in us and gives us a space to use our imaginations all for the sake of fun. With the coming of our Fantasy Portrait Sessions we want to let you know that it’s okay to play too. We encourage it!
The farm has always felt like a magical place detached from regular worldly goings-on. Living so closely side-by-side with animals and nature has given us a peaceful haven to retreat to when we want to explore a little deeper into the mysteries that life presents us.
Behind a bundle of wild purple loosetrife may be a curiously peeking faerie. At the farthest reaches of the field, amongst wild roses and pear trees, hooves shyly nudge the earth and a long white mane is thrown back to reveal a shining spiraled horn. Beyond that is what you must find for yourself.
Everything is here for you, hidden in a sylvan dream, waiting for the spark of imagination to bring it to life.
