I cannot think of a more perfect photo session for a florist than doing a rhododendron filled couple's photos in Lithia Park! Kirstie of A Bloom Studio is an incredibly talented florist in the Rogue Valley of Southern Oregon. When she reached out for an anniversary session with her husband, Matt I knew just the place to take them!
Lithia Park is tucked into the downtown area of Ashland, Oregon and stretches into the back side of the valley with Lithia Creek running right through the middle. It is such a gorgeous park full of unique flora and trees! During the spring for just a week or two there is an area full of colorful rhododendrons. It is a favorite of mine during the spring time in Oregon!
I let these two walk along the paths, be amongst the blossoms and enjoy a quiet morning together celebrating all they have accomplished!
