Join us to expand your knowledge on growing, gathering + photographing your backyard landscape. In this 2.5 hour workshoppe, master gardener Karri Rose will discuss the seasons of growing a bounty of color, along with gathering textures + a variety of palettes. Karri will be joined by accomplished photographer Molly Wood, who will explore simple photography techniques any photographer, whether amateur or advanced, can put to use in a meaningful way.
Each guest will have three varying containers + vessels in which florals will be styled under the instruction of Karri Rose. After the styling is complete, Molly Wood will photograph the styled florals in the Rose Farm greenhouse, as she provides instruction, tips + tricks for flawless photography. All materials + tools are included. A complimentary beverage is also included. Guests will receive their photos after the workshoppe is complete.
