Photo session terms so that we all have a good time in the gardens

Please let us know 24 hours in advance if you want to pick flowers. You can pay for the flowers via website or Cash.
We also ask that you respect your time slot. One hour is one hour. We are opening our home and private space in our off-hours to allow people to enjoy our gardens. Please respect the allotted time.
Your session is self-serve. The You-pick field is located directly behind the barn. Your location rental only includes the field, the courtyard, and the barn porch. Please stay in the barn area.
We are happy to reschedule you if there is unpredictable weather. We do not offer refunds.
Please note this is a working farm, which means we can’t control mud, irrigations, tractors, equipment etc will not be visible. The flowers are grown for enjoyment and picking, not perfection. We do know that photographers have an amazing eye and can work their magic with their cameras, so it shouldn’t be an issue.
If you are interested in booking, please read all our FAQ's before you schedule below. We look forward to hosting you. To Book, email Catherine@Petalsandbloomsflowerco.com
FAQ’s
Can we pick flowers during a professional photoshoot?
Yes, however, it is not included in the price of the location rental. If you are interested, just let me know when you book your shoot and I will incorporate into the rental price. I will make sure everything is set out for you.
Where can we take photos?
You get access to the You-pick field, the courtyard (which is in front of the barn), the barn porch, and the Bloomers Sensory Garden. These gardens are also our home so we do not allow photos in the front yard, in the barn, the house front porch, the deck or the patio under the deck.
Can I have multiple families in the one hour I schedule?
No, just one clientele per hour. For example, one family, one senior, one couple.
Do you allow pets to be included?
Yes, and we ask that your pet be well controlled. We have 4 dogs of our own so if pets are coming we ask that you let us know so we can put ours in the house. Please clean up after your pet and do not let them run leash free.
Can we just do photo sessions during your open You-pick days?
Paying customers can absolutely come and take photos with their phones or even nice cameras. However, we do not allow full-on photo shoots with clients, regardless of whether they are paid to pick. It gets a little awkward for our customers when you ask people to move out of your shot or bring props and reflectors for the perfect shot. Our customers are here to enjoy the serenity of nature and we want to honor them. If you are interested in professional photoshoots at our farm, we recommend scheduling a private session.
Are there restrooms available?
No, There are no restrooms in the barn or open to the public in the house.
Are you accessible friendly?
We work to make the property as accessible as possible. The paths are wheelchair accessible, but it is a working farm, we cannot control irrigation lines and bumps and divots on the ground.
