Gardening is one of my favorite things to do and even though it’s a lot of work, I love the reward of seeing my plants grow and my flowers bloom.
What I love even more though is getting to cut the flowers and bring them inside. Then I get to enjoy them all the time! My peonies are blooming and my hollyhocks are *this close*…eek!
We don’t do a lot of herbs or any veggies right now, but I’d like to get more into that as I’ve been eating more and more “off the land” these past years.
Today, I just wanted to share a spontaneous shoot we did in our garden recently. The light was perfect after dinner and well, you know I can’t pass up a good photo opportunity 😉
One of my favorite things about summer is that golden glow you get right before the sun sets. I can’t handle too many gloomy days!
What are your favorite things about summer?
Just found your blog and I’m obsessed! So glad to see another curly-haired lady rocking the waves. Such a gorgeous impromptu photoshoot, Carolyn xx

Thanks so much, Quinn! Gonna go check out your blog right now!
I really love your dress in the photo. My best friend was asking if it will suit her. Also, the photos are amazing! Great photo shoot in the garden!
I really liked your dress. I think it would look great on my wife. Your photos are awesome as well.
These photos are so dreamy and gorgeous! I love a good photo shoot, and you nailed it with this one! Also – I love your hair, it is soooo pretty!
These photos are absolutely stunning – golden hour is truly the BEST for photos!!
One of my favorite things of summer is the long days in the sun. Taking beach vacations with my family.
These golden hour shots look so good! i need to try this, I typically only shoot in cloudy conditions.

What a lovely garden! Your photos are amazing. I like how you considered the lighting, too. It’s such an important element.
Thanks for the kind words, Ray!
You make gardening look so chic and fun. I am so inspired!
Aww thanks, Lavern!
I can’t believe this is YOUR garden! It looks like something out of a movie. So beautiful – just like these photos – just like YOU. I am sooo not a fan of summer (cold weather PLEASE) but I guess the one thing I could say that I like about the season is the ability to hang out at rooftop bars!
Oh wow, thank you for the compliments! And crazy that you don’t like summer! You might be the only one I know 🙂
Golden hour shoots are my absolute favorite.
Same here!
i love the garden and your photos! Stunning!
Thanks so much, Laura!
You and those peonies are just stunning!
I love flowers!
Wow, what an incredible photo shoot. I would really like to get some shots with that sunset too!
It’s one of the best times to take photos!
I’m so excited that summer is finally here. I love the season mostly because I get to spend more time with my kids.
That’s a good reason to love this season!
I do love peonies. There are so many great pictures in this post. Well done to the photographer!
The photographer is my husband! I’ve taught him well 😉
