This photoshoot was a really fun and creative way for me to do something a little different with some gorgeous local flowers. I worked with my friend James on selecting some breathtaking locations and models, and he styled the wardrobes, posed the models, and waded knee deep in the chilly waters of Latourell Falls to capture these amazing images.

I chose to create 2 different bouquets that completely contrasted each other in an effort to showcase how beautiful both palettes can be in the right setting. Our first bouquet was dark and moody with velvety purple Iris, deep red Peonies mixed in with some dark foliage.
