A perfect location

I was planning on shooting at some basic park with Victoria until she let me know about her parent’s home in Huntsville, Utah, and told me how it was an older farm house near the lake and how green and pretty everything was, and that there were open fields, and chickens, and cats, and some old bikes in the shed, and that maybe family will stop by and visit, and how — in the late afternoon — the sun dapples across the white clapboard siding, and the wind dances through the flower beds and smells of summers gone by, and if you close your eyes — just before dusk — and listen carefully you can hear the melodic call of a Flammulated Owl welcoming you home, and then I said, yeah, let’s shoot there.

It was the perfect location. And one of the best days.

And I may have exaggerated a bit on Victoria’s description of the place. But the first part was true.

And the part about the owl. ;)
