🔥 Have you checked out the new Campfire newsletter yet? 👀

I launched the first edition this week and... oh my stars, it is going SO WELL 😭🖤

The feedback I've received has been incredible. People have told me they love wandering through all the different sections, the photography, writing, curiosities, recommendations, little interactive pieces, and of course... the fortune cookies 🤣🥠

This newsletter has given me a place to bring all the strange little corners of my creative world together without trying to cram myself into one neat little box... and apparently, you guys like wandering around in there with me 🥹

Voices at NIghtfall is a weekly newsletter with something different waiting each Sunday. Writing, photography, books, curiosities, behind-the-scenes happenings, things I've found along the way, and whatever else has caught my attention that week.

And because I am physically incapable of choosing one format 🤣 you can read it as a traditional blog-style newsletter or flip through the full magazine edition.

If you haven't visited yet, come have a wander 🔥🖤
There's always a chair waiting at the Campfire.

I saw an empty theater pic in Canva and thought... I know what it needs 💀🤣🤣🤣
After many element adjustments later, and my fever dream brain doing what it does best... behold!! Vintage theater from beyond 🤣👻

You’re welcome, world... I know you needed this 💃😅

Hello, beautiful humans! 👋🏻💚

It has been quite some time since I have shown up here consistently.

During my time away, I thought a lot about Lunar Grove, social media, creativity, business... and myself.

For a long time, I tried to separate everything I did into neat little boxes. Photography belonged here. Magic belonged there. Writing somewhere else. Art, community, motherhood, homeschooling, my strange little interests and whatever creative endeavor had currently taken hold of my brain... surely all of those things couldn't exist in the same place 😅

Trying to maintain all of those separate pieces eventually exhausted me.

Over the last few months, I found myself in a completely different corner of the internet, writing and creating without an agenda. I stopped worrying so much about what I should post and started sharing what actually interested me.

Poetry. Photography. Art. Magic. Nature. Horror. Books. Personal reflections. Weird thoughts. Digital magazines. Things I was creating simply because I wanted to create them.

And somewhere along the way, I realized how much I had missed showing up as myself.

So... I'm bringing that energy home to Lunar Grove 💚

This page will still have photography. Yes, I am still photographing! There have been some changes, especially around bo***ir, and I'll share more about those soon.

There will still be witchcraft, moon magic, card pulls, rituals, and all the strange and wonderful things that have lived within Lunar Grove for years.

But you'll also see my writing as J. Ell Nightfall, my digital publications, art, nature, books, horror, creative projects, things from The Campfire shop, random thoughts, and whatever else happens to wander through my brain.

Basically... Lunar Grove is allowed to contain all of Lunar Grove now 😅💚

And if you're looking for more conversation and community, our Facebook group has had a little transformation of its own.

🔥 The Campfire | Enchanted Lunar Grove Studio | Magic, Fantasy & Community - link in comments

The Campfire is where we can actually gather. Share what we're creating, talk about magic, art, books, photography, nature and weird things, ask questions, discover new projects, participate in community pieces, and simply enjoy each other's company.

If you've been part of the group for years, you're already around the fire 💚 If you haven't joined us yet, you're absolutely welcome to pull up a chair.

The page and group will share the same general vibe from here on out. The page will remain the main home of Lunar Grove Studio, while The Campfire is where the community gets to gather around it.

No more trying to maintain seventeen different versions of myself for seventeen different corners of the internet 🤣

So... hi 👋🏻💚

I'm Jessie-Lee... or J. Ell Nightfall. Photographer, writer, artist, witch, mother, homeschool director, collector of strange things, and whatever other title I've forgotten today.

All of me this time.

Welcome back to Lunar Grove Studio 🌙✨

And if you'd like to come sit with us...

I'll meet you around The Campfire 🔥💚

Oh dear... 😅

After receiving a very concerned message about my lack of Facebook posts and discovering my website was inaccessible, I realized I never actually posted an update here. Forgive me!

The website will be down for the next little while as some exciting changes unfold. Those updates are connected to the Ko-fi shop as well, so the shop will also be closed for the next week or so.

If you've stopped by recently, you may have noticed a new vibe... and yes, that is entirely intentional. ✨ The magic isn't going anywhere. I've simply found a way to bring together all the weird and wonderful parts that make up Lunar Grove Studio into one home.

And don't worry... I'm still doing photography! If you've been thinking about booking a session, send me a message and let's plan your perfect art-filled adventure.

Things are taking shape, and I can't wait to share what's coming next. 🖤✨

So incredibly excited!! 🤩

These are some prototypes of the new Magnets & Keychains that will soon be available ✨️

So many nature pictures to choose!!

What do you think??

Incase you missed this!!
Every year I like to offer a special outdoor mini session experience.

My regular packages are always available for those looking for a longer, more immersive session, but these smaller offerings are perfect for anyone who wants just a few beautiful images, or for those who have been curious about empowerment sessions and aren't quite sure where to start.

Over the years, many people who first booked a mini session have returned for additional minis or full sessions. They often tell me the same thing... it was fun, empowering, healing, and gave them a chance to see themselves through a new light.

If you've been following along and feeling interested but a little unsure, this is a wonderful opportunity to experience it for yourself.
Or maybe you simply want a few new photographs to add to your collection. 😉

send me a message and let's create some beautiful outdoor art together.

Currently booking into July & August
