The Wild Hymns

A sultry, smoky resonance escapes the strings of his guitar. She matches his melody. The tune is carried on low clouds, getting stuck in the underbelly of a nearby ancient tree. It will stay there, protected by long and crooked limb, their song will now become a wild hymn.

This shoot was a collaboration of local vendors from the Lancaster county, Pennsylvania area. Megan and Jeff are a traveling band named The Wild Hymns. We hoped to bring in a deep and sultry vibe to this styled shoot as a reflection of the love and the music that these two share. Our local landscape holds a lot of magic in it’s rolling hills, rocky earth and seasonal nature. What was once before vibrant green fades to remind us of the wild and temporal state of our being and with that reminder we sink into what we love a little deeper, the sacred connections we share in creation. It is through our willingness to harmonize with each other that we will surely find both growth and surrender. We found all of that within this shoot. A team of women willing to come together and let it unfold, creating beauty and love in the fleeting moments we shared.
