My daughter is a cherry blossom baby borne in late March. Every year until she turned 21 we photographed her next to the cherry blossoms - from her birth announcement on. Very special flower to us!!
Wow, what a beautiful tradition! It must be magical to see all the photographs from all her birthdays in a collage 😍 In our tradition we always plant a tree (sometimes with placenta) whenever a child is born. It is beautiful to see both grow.
Your photography is so incredible! I love feeling your food creations through your photos. It is so hard for my human brain to conceptualize being alive for thousands of years, and I wonder how being in the presence of a tree that has LIVED that stretch of life would feel!! Could I feel the stories that tree is stewarding through its roots, the wisdom it has alchemized through all it has witnessed?
Oh thank you my dear Rhiannon, I’m kind a late to reply to your heartwarming comment. I’m always thinking about what these old trees have been through and how many stories they can tell us. Sometimes I imagine they do share their vast wisdom with us. Sending love your way 🌸🫶
Exquisite photographs! The magic of cherry blossoms sings in these dishes. Oh, that ethereal pink!
Thank you Jen, means the world. As the blossoms are truly magical and ethereal, it is so easy to fall in love with them. 🌸
