My new home in Makawao has this beautiful terra-cotta colored wall in the backyard. Ever since I moved in I've wanted to use it as a photography backdrop. The light on it is especially beautiful in the evening, when the shadows are long and the light turns golden. The tall dracaena border casts beautiful dappled light along the wall, and I knew I needed a model to do some creative portraits playing with light and shadow. This is where I give a big thanks Megan Philibin (@meganinamoment) for modeling for me and reading my mind (she brought the bird of paradise flower, which was too perfect since I wished I had a single flower to play with as well right before our shoot). She also, obviously, brought the fire 🔥🔥🔥
