Fairy Nook

Fairy Nook

In Florida I meet Randal, a friendly guy who tells me he's created an entire Fairy village next to his home in the forest NW of Naples. He shows me photos of it and it looks playful and kind of magical so I head out to see it for myself.

 

It's an incredible site! Maybe 20 little structures have been made to blend into the natural surroundings which already looks surreal, with moss covering half of it. He had built the village for his young nieces and nephews who would then be enthralled by the stories Randal spun. He had an entire narrative about the comings and goings of the various colorful characters who populated his village.

 

In Randal's tale, the fairy house I photographed is the parsonage to the church. In the garden of the church several religions are represented. 

 

Nikki and I showed up with my gear the next day to set up in the late afternoon, and waited for nightfall. As the sun set, lights began popping on throughout the village - lights Randal had placed, creating yet another layer of fantasy to this magical place.

Light Paintings series

 

I sometimes fantasize that with the snap of a finger, I can escape reality ... in a moment, be transported to a dream world free of life's demands, a child's playground where magic exists and all is right with the world.My Light Paintings are that portal. Through them I can transcend reality and escape into these beautiful, vibrant yet peaceful realms.

Although there is some digital manipulation in this series, the unusual lighting and surreal quality in the Light Painting series is achieved by using colored lights during long exposures. They are not digital effects.

    FINISHES
    Our unique and vibrant photographs will add depth and stunning color to any home, office or public space. They are offered in two main finishes

     

    1. Metal float mount
    Our Metal prints have a magical luminescence. Their vibrant, saturated colors jump off the wall, and will last for generations. They are created by infusing dyes directly into specially coated aluminum sheets making them incredibly durable and scratch resistant. The ready-to-hang finished piece is float mounted, so they float one inch off the wall.

     

    2. Archival prints
    We print on premium quality Sunset eSatin paper, using archival Ultrachrome inks for incredible endurance and color saturation. These prints will last for generations.

    11x14 and 16x20 sizes are available with or without a window mat. If you are unsure which is best for you, feel free to contact us. Most clients seem to purchase without the window mat.

     

    Prints larger than 16X20 are available as full-frame prints, without a white border or a window mat. If you want a white border, just let us know!


    CUSTOM SIZES
    If you have a specific size requirement, that's no problem! Maybe the perfect size is somewhere between two of the sizes in the drop down list. In that case, the price would be the proportional difference. We?ve also stretched and cropped pieces for customers to fit precise spaces. Give us the dimensions and we'll email you image options for you to choose from. There is no charge for the extra labor in custom sizing pieces.
