Watery Fairytale Pt. 2 (Patreon)

Here is a continuation of the beautiful shots Daphne and I created the last time I passed through Tennessee in July. A week or so after shooting this, Daphne booked a bunch of private gigs there - filled her day with about 8 clients I think! I love seeing the way other creators navigate their world in terms of the artistic side and business side. 

This little gem of a spot is actually just around the bend from her beautiful home. Perhaps not noticeable here, but this river runs in between 2 roads. In front of me in these shots, a pretty cool pool of water floods in where the pavement dips too low meeting the river. 

I wonder how many people drove by and thought we were weirdos. Don't mind us, just dipping in freezing cold water in a vintage gown!

Sometimes I wonder how many people have stopped to film or take pictures of me and others in the art life. I admit, we do some weird stuff out in the world. I know people stopped and took pictures during last year's carnival shoot in Alabama, because we got in trouble for it even though we had permission, hahahah. Remember that?

Ah, the stories I could tell. 

There's one more set from this day coming soon! Stay tuned.
