this is how we play

It's amazing how even when I want to relieve some stress, I turn to flowers! I'm starting to believe that I am truly obsessed.  On top of the 10 year obsession you add a new fancy camera that photographs the flowers as close to reality as possible.

 I have to admit I'm loving creating mini photo shoots in our space.  The hard part is deciding what images to share.  Hope you like the ones I've chosen. 

We are coming to the end of ranunculus season and I had to take full advantage of the gorgeous ones while they last! 

summer is here

We have been in the depths of the spring wedding season and have noticed it has taken us way too long to post this wonderful photo shoot!!

This bouquet! So soft, elegant and just perfect for our sweet bride.

they end up

Sometimes there are leftovers and sometimes they end up inside my home in my workspace.  It's very rare.  My roommate, also known as my boyfriend, is allergic to flowers.  Yes, you heard it here.  The floral designer's boyfriend is allergic to flowers! 

This was the bridal bouquet for this weekend's bride.  Well, the raw version before it was wrapped and ready to go.  Then the leftovers...

a new view

With a new camera comes a new perspective.  After much deliberation and struggle between taking a vacation or purchasing a new camera... the new camera won, at least for the moment.  The vacation is still being planned.

 So with that said you'll begin to notice a new series of posts that are much more personable, fun and maybe occasionally a DIY for those who like to play with flowers.  Here's just the beginning... Several pics of an arrangement made with a combination of some wedding left overs and some left from a styled shoot.
