Hi Friends,

I’ve been meaning to update my site with some of the flower photographs I’ve taken the past few months. I post them on my Facebook page every Monday, (or try to) and wanted to share them with you all. “Have a great week” is the caption I use, but here I wanted to go into more detail about where and why I took these photos. Hope you enjoy…

Leaving work one day last summer, it was about 100 degrees outside. I saw this pretty flower and snapped a shot, I think it turned out amazing! This is one of my favorite pictures.

Lovely fern I bought for our backyard. I love the delicate and airy look of it, reminds me of lace.

 

Here are some Dahlia’s we got at the Farmer’s Market one day and a shawl that I was working on at the time – looks so pretty together.

On vacation last summer, these succulents were everywhere.

This succulent was at the vacation house we rented.

Some Fall flowers I bought at the store one day, preparing for Halloween.

This was taken outside the Hospital after taking my daughter to get an X-ray of her ankle. It’s really bad when they recognize you there! She’s ok, but really swollen and sprained. I love the color of this Bougainvillea.

The morning after our first rain in a while, walking to the soccer field we noticed a huge rose bush filled with these beauties. You can still see the raindrops.

This is a flower made out of glass plates and a vase. We got this at the Farmer’s Market last summer. A permanent flower in our garden.

Walking into the grocery store one day we saw this lovely flower arrangement right by the entrance. What a nice display, I love roses & lilies.

This was the floral centerpiece at a friend’s Quinceanera recently.  Her colors were lavender and silver.  It was a gorgeous arrangement and was 3 feet tall.  This is the top and it had a base of flowers around the bottom.  One of the best parties ever!

I find inspiration and joy in photographing flowers. Flowers are one of my favorite things, so it makes me happy to capture them.

Thanks for reading!

Have a great day!
