this was the very first session at my workshop in julian, ca. i had planned for a sunshine filled morning, but instead, the most glorious thick blanket of fog rolled in and settled over all the apple trees! it created a much different backdrop than i had planned but one that was more beautiful than anything i could have crafted up so we just went with it. gabriella and naomi, our darling models, toughed it out in the cold and we were able to shoot for about a half hour thanks to a cozy blanket and their mama to cuddle them up and some fresh baked chocolate chip cookies. it just felt like pure wonder out there in the orchard… one of those magical things that happen only once in a very great while.
