This Boston Film Cherry Blossom Photography is something of my dreams.
At the studio of Fleur Events and with the talented hand of Love Notes by June for Makeup artistry, we made magic on a weird New England day filled with cold, wet air and fluttering cherry blossoms.
That the nature of the cherry blossom tree is itself very fleeting, it seemed only natural to use film which also seems to have a very fleeting, delicate quality. So without further ado, enjoy these gorgeous images.
Cherry blossoms
I went down to
mingle my breath
with the breath
of the cherry blossoms.
There were photographers:
Mothers arranging their
children against
gnarled old trees;
a couple, hugging,
asks a passerby
to snap them
like that,
so that their love
will always be caught
between two friendships:
ours & the friendship
of the cherry trees.
Oh Cherry,
why can’t my poems
be as beautiful?
A young woman in a fur-trimmed
coat sets a card table
with linens, candles,
a picnic basket & wine.
A father tips
a boy’s wheelchair back
so he can gaze
up at a branched
heaven.
All around us
the blossoms
flurry down
whispering,
Be patient
you have an ancient beauty.
Be patient,
you have an ancient beauty.
