The October blooms are back! It’s so pretty in the fields right now! They should hang around for the next few weeks until earlyish November when that first frost hits. Once we get a frost, the season will be over. This is absolutely our most favorite time in the wildflowers! Hopefully the weather will cooperate, so all the weekend sessions can stop getting rained out. Come enjoy these blooms before they’re gone!

And just like that… October became our favorite again.

The blooms have started their comeback! We’re seeing more blooms every day, along with TONS of new buds. Soon, the fields will be exploding!

So fun!

The real promo photos are in, and we are OBSESSED! 🤎

Golden hour in the Fall Sun Porch is just something else. Warm light, cozy textures, soft neutrals, and all the boho your heart could desire.

Here’s a little peek at the space in its natural golden-hour glory. 🍂✨

Fall sessions are officially underway! 🍂✨

It’s been a hot minute since we’ve given an update from the fields, so here it is!

First of all…what a GORGEOUS golden hour last night! Secondly, we’re officially starting to see that fall transition happening in the fields. Lots of dried grasses, happy greenery, and little pops of color are starting to show up as everything gets ready for another round of blooms. And honestly, we’re taking that as a very good sign that the comeback is coming, just waiting for the cooler weather to settle in.

We did plant one row specifically for a sweet early-October ceremony, and that little row is currently blooming beautifully. It’s nowhere near the size of our summer fields, but it sure is pretty right now!

As for the rest of the fields, we’re anticipating a good amount of blooms throughout October. The timing varies a little from year to year, but if you’re hoping to catch the fields at their best, we recommend aiming for mid-to-late October. Typically, we’ll continue seeing blooms into early November, but once that first frost hits, that’s a wrap for the season.

We know we have some wet and windy weather headed our way this week, but we’re not too worried about the flowers. At this point, they’re pretty well conditioned for whatever Mother Nature throws at them. At worst, we may see a few areas lay over, but give them a little sunshine and they usually perk right back up. (People are the same.)

October is honestly one of our favorite months for wildflowers. For one, you’re no longer dripping in sweat just standing outside (HOLY HOT SUMMER), but the explosion of blooms that comes with cooler weather is just unmatched.

So here’s hoping October brings us the comeback we’ve been waiting for! 🌸

Now that we’re mostly caught up on all the holiday sets, we wanted to take a second to tweak the Fall Sun Porch.

You ever create something and then look at it and think, “Hmm…something is missing.”? That’s exactly how we felt.

So, naturally, we decided the best solution was to add more to our already very long to-do list. Because apparently, life wasn’t crazy enough!

But we absolutely LOVE how it turned out, so we’re calling it worth it.

The Fall Sun Porch is ready for all your cozy fall photos through October 25th!

🎄 The Christmas Sun Porch is back! 🎄

This year we traded in the flocked trees for a more minimalistic feel so we could really amp up the boho vibe—and we LOVE how much it opens up the space!

We flipped the Victorian bench into our wreath wall and paired it with the mantel for the perfect spot for a family picture. 🤍

Santa’s rocking chair is included, but it can easily be removed if you’d rather use the space for family photos, hanging ornaments, or whatever your Christmas-loving heart desires!

Available November 1–December 20.

Our Rustic Trailer is decked out for Christmas!

A little vintage charm, cozy textures, soft greenery, twinkle-worthy details, and all the Christmas magic tucked into one very old trailer. The trees will be lit for your sessions and we may add a few extra touches between now and then, but we wanted to get these photos out since the countdown is on!

It’ll be available November 1–December 20 and is ready for all your Christmas pictures, family memories, little ones, and maybe a few four-legged friends too.

Rustic, cozy, and just a little bit imperfect—which is exactly how we like it around here. 🎄✨

(Tomorrow we are dropping the Sun Porch set up! Bo Ho Ho!)

Thank you to the talented Christine Marie for snapping these 📸

It’s almost September, which means the wildflowers will be slowing down and taking a little break. But just you wait! October usually brings some of the prettiest comebacks with an explosion of blooms! 🌸

This year has been our most challenging season yet, and we’ve had a hard time predicting what these fields were going to do. But as long as hurricane season stays chill, we’re expecting a beautiful October!

September is usually limited on blooms, but you’re still welcome to come out and enjoy the weeping willow and fields with whatever blooms you can find! 🌿 These pics are from the weekend, so there are still blooms to work with!

Now for a little business update…

This season has made us realize that this little place has become a real job on top of our already-real jobs. We are incredibly thankful for all the blessings it has brought us, but we’re also realizing we need more fun in our lives.

So to help, we’re working on an online booking system to help lighten our load. We’re not sure exactly when it’ll be ready, but we’re working on it and will get it up as soon as we can!

And one other change…

Moving forward, anyone found using a space they have not reserved will not be permitted back on the property.

We’ve tried to be understanding, but the “oh, I didn’t know” line just doesn’t fly with us anymore. The instructions and waiver clearly explain what is and isn’t included, and they take about five minutes each to read.

If you’d like to add a space while you’re here, just send us a quick message and ask!

When you book, you agree to the rules and are responsible for making sure everyone in your party knows them too.

We’re done spending our time and energy enforcing rules that are already clearly laid out. We’re pretty used to weeding around here anyway… so if that’s what it takes, let the weeding begin. 🌱

We appreciate the heck out of the people who respect this place, follow the rules, and make all of this worth continuing. ❤️
