The Art of Floral Design and Photography


Unleash your inner artist as you spend the day styling and photographing florals. In this class, you'll create a seasonal floral arrangement and learn to photograph it with artistry and intention using your phone. Explore techniques for styling and composing vignettes that highlight color, texture, and light, then head into the Garden's Conservatory to capture blooms in natural light. By day's end, you'll have a beautiful arrangement, a gallery of inspired images, and the skills to continue photographing flowers with confidence and creativity.
