Black Palm

For Palm Sunday my parents cut some palm leaves from their garden, assembled it as a sort of door swag and gave them to their kids. It was really pretty and lasted a lot longer than I anticipated. Once the sun started to blast on it though the leaves started to stiffen more and turn into a lighter shade of green. Everyday after walks with Lloyd we would open the front door and I would just look at it, waiting for it to speak to me (haha).

Staying at home we have constantly been looking for something to be inspired by and shoot — we’re looking at you, Wall! So finally we just took the swag off the door, painted the palms black, set up a black back drop and this is what we created.

That handshake right there. That’s for our high school buddies – they are probably most definitely not reading this ha but we miss you guys.
