And you!
Thank you for participating in this project! Please visit the about section and the gallery section of this beta site to learn more about the concept (it will help you with some of the questions below).
For this particular day, we are lucky enough to receive donated help from Emily Day (floral design) and Stefani Jo-Marie (wardrobe, makeup and hair). My goal is to create a variety of images that can be used for my own "rewilding" website, as well as the professional portfolios of Emily and Stefani. In exchange for modeling, you will receive the digital images and a discount on prints.
We'll be working with hair pieces, flower crowns, flowy garments with possibly some twigs and sheer fabric. You are welcome to bring a few of your favorite items from home that fit you well and might be a versatile addition to your look. Please fill out this form to help us create your inner goddess.
DIRECTIONS
Bell Brook Farm is located on Old North Brookfield Road, near the intersection of this road and route 67-- just before the North Brookfield/West Brookfield town line.
If you don't want to use GPS:
Coming from the East, the simplest route* is to take route 90 West to exit 10 toward Auburn and stay right until you merge onto route 12 South. Stay straight to get onto 20 West. After about 15 minutes, turn right onto 49 North. Follow this for 8 miles until it ends in East Brookfield, then turn left to get onto 9 West. Once you get into West Brookfield (about 7 miles), turn right to take 67 North. Follow this for 2 miles until you see Old North Brookfield Rd on your right- the house will be on the right, toward the end of this road as it curves left to link up again with 67.
*This is not the way GPS will take you- it's 5 minutes longer, but less complicated. If you like using GPS, just use that!
Coming from the Northampton area, you can take route 9 East almost the whole way. When you get into downtown West Brookfield, you'll go slightly left to get onto 67 North. Follow this for 2 miles until you see Old North Brookfield Rd on your right- the house will be on the right, toward the end of this road as it curves left to link up again with 67.
