A Medieval Photoshoot! (with horses!!)
Added 2024-11-22 19:15:07 +0000 UTC
Hello friends!!
Before the Halloween season, I joined a fun little photoshoot with the AMAZING Olivia (& friends). We got to play dress-up and cuddle horses, doesn't get much better than that, lmao.
ANYWHO I wanted to take you along and show you the behind-the-scenes :) ENJOY!

ALSO huge thank you & shout-out to Rocking Horse Farm for being true MVP horse-wranglers and letting us use the location and models!
My mother worked as a professional photographer for over a decade, and she did the same thing that Olivia does! You could always tell when she got a shot that she liked because there was much hooting and hollering from her. If she got too excited, she would lose her ability to form complete sentences and communication would consist of bits and pieces of words ("the thing" and "you know" were common) accompanied by frantic hand gestures. (As her assistant, one of my jobs was to serve as her translator whilst she was in this state.)

I've just joined your patreon after binge watching all your youtube vids and feeling so inspired creatively and wanting my own youtube channel. Thank you for being a relatable inspiration! Hetty x

Hey, I wanted to tell you I hope things started to get better for you. I know what you’re talking about when it’s like not even noon and the whole world seems to have spun out of control and dealing with those things can often get beyond frustrating because they are not always within your control. I hope you’re doing alright now though. I know it doesn’t change in an instant and everything is not just better, but I am hoping it has improved. Sending you a really good friend hug, that says *I-know-this-may-be-awkward-right-now, but-we-really-both-need-it-and-psychology-says-it’s-healthy-to-get-at-least-one-hug-or-more-every-day.* ❤️🥂

Hey, I hope things started to get better for you my friend. I know what it is like to be in that place and dealing with things that often not within your control, even the emotional stuff. I hope you’re doing alright now though. I know it doesn’t change in an instant and everything is just better, but I am hoping it has improved some if not a great deal. Sending you a really good friend hug, that says *I-know-this-may-be-awkward-right-now, but-we-really-both-need-it-and-psychology-says-it’s-healthy-to-get-at-least-one-hug-or-more-every-day.*

I couldn’t agree more. I didn’t become a mom, no, instead my body decided to become chronically ill. Sometimes it’s really difficult remembering your life was different before a certain point. But I agree having a group of in person people you can do such things with is a dream. ❤️

Same! Absolutely wish I had a group of friends like this and could do this! All the whimsy and beautiful! It’s honestly majestic!❤️

Oh to be a kid again❤️ what a cool day with the gals. Love watching everything you do! You’re so frick’en talented! My god woman!!!I I use to ride as a kid too. One day while riding something spooked the horse, she changed directions so quickly my body kept going, going, going over her head and on to my face! It wasn’t her fault and riding bareback has its downsides. I got up after catching my breath, made sure she was okay and gave her a kiss. If I were to go over face first at this age - well let’s just say I wouldn’t be dancing that night. Or the next night either! But boy do I still love horses💕 and any four legged creatures 💕

I almost started crying watching this, it was just so lovely and wholesome. Am I also about to get my period and almost anything will make me cry? Yes, but the statement still stands! Absolutely loved seeing the behind the scenes of this shoot!!

In medieval pictures of knights, you’ll often see them wearing a belt with dangling bells when they’re not in armour. This was to train their horses to get used to the sound of clinking metal. These horses were so chill with you all!

Okay Rachel, speaking as someone who has effectively lost all of my IRL friends since becoming a mom (it's a thing, it's fine), I hope you understand just how lucky you are to have a group of friends like this! Like, cool, you have a channel and a platform, which is amazing. But the really truly amazing thing is that you have a real life community of people you can do these things with. I would kill for that.

Just wanted to send a quick "thank you" your way for this video. I had a really rough day (circumstantial and also just mental health wise) and this video cheered me up a little. I'm still sad and anxious but this has really taken the edge off, and that is both very welcome and not an easy feat to accomplish. So thank you for your impeccable timing and for sharing these lovely things with us.
