Meet me under the Orange Trees for some magical realism and expired film

Meet me under the Orange Trees for some magical realism and expired film. Jenna asked a magical realism family session in an orange grove. I love collaborating on images that illustrate pieces she’s writing. I love watching her family grow. The first image is what we came for and then everyone wandered around being silly and playing games getting so many more.

If you make it to the end there are a series of images of expired film that have a green tone to them and feel like their from the 70’s. That’s on purpose. Jenna played in this orchard when she was a kid and I wanted to give a bit of a nod to her childhood as well.

What story can I tell for you? Do you already have it in mind? Can we dream it up together? I’d love to know.
