What a wonderful little treat it was to cover this unique home & garden style session! Daniel’s partner had undertaken gardening during the pandemic lockdowns and created a big, beautiful backyard oasis. For his birthday, Daniel want to surprise him with a professional photoshoot of his handiwork during the early Spring while he was out of town. Luckily for us, we had just come off of the heels of a very hearty rainfall, which resulted in all of the plants in flowers being covered in glittery raindrops and dew. Their adorable cat even made a few guest appearances, too!

Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D750, using a Nikkor 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 lens, all individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using custom-built presets.
