I made the decision to switch food photography week to editorial shoot week. I wanted to create a theme and overall mood for this shoot and I decided to go with a witchy and coven themed shoot since these were taken in the month of October. I didn’t have a song in mind while shooting these but the perfect one came on shuffle.
She asked me Be my sister, sister of the moon Some call her sister of the moon Some say illusions are her game Wrap her in velvet
Does anyone, ah, know her name So we make our choices When there is no choice And we listen to their voices Ignoring our own voice
I pulled this set of lyrics from Sister of The Moon by Fleetwood Mac. Like I said, I didn’t have a song in mind while doing this shoot. This song came up on my shuffle as I was editing the photos and the lyrics seemed to match perfectly. Witches are known to have ties with the moon and nature in general and some of the subjects in this photo set were “wrapped in velvet” as the song implies. The witchy theme of this editorial shoot really embodies this song.
