Larkspur Field

A short and beautiful spring bloom of soft blue and purple larkspur — perfect for romantic portraits, maternity sessions, and family photos.

A Spring Field of Larkspur

Each spring, part of the Firefly Haven property transforms into a field of blooming larkspur.The tall, delicate flowers create a dreamy backdrop that feels soft, natural, and unmistakably seasonal. Photographers love the way the flowers add depth and movement to portraits while still keeping the focus on their clients.

Because larkspur only blooms for a short window each year, these sessions are limited — making them a favorite for photographers looking to offer something unique to their clients.

About the Larkspur Field

The larkspur field typically blooms throughout May, depending on weather conditions. During this time, the field fills with tall stems of soft blue and purple flowers that sway gently in the breeze, creating a natural, airy backdrop for portraits.

Unlike many flower fields that feel tightly packed or difficult to work in, the layout of the larkspur at Firefly Haven allows photographers to move easily through the space and photograph from multiple angles.

This makes it easy to capture:

  • full-body portraits surrounded by flowers
  • close, intimate moments between couples or families
  • playful movement shots with kids running through the field

The result is a gallery that feels natural, light, and distinctly spring.

What You Can Create in the Larkspur Field

The larkspur field sits just beside one of the most photographed features on the property (our tree swing) and only a short walk from the greenhouse. This makes it easy to create a full gallery for your client without needing to move locations.

During a session, many photographers move naturally between:

  • portraits surrounded by tall larkspur blooms
  • playful images on the tree swing
  • soft light portraits inside the greenhouse

Because these settings are all within the same area, you can create a variety of looks in a single session while keeping the experience relaxed for your clients.

The soft blue and purple flowers also photograph beautifully in natural light, creating a romantic spring backdrop that works especially well for maternity sessions, couples, families, and motherhood portraits.

When does the larkspur field bloom?
The larkspur field typically blooms throughout May, though exact timing can vary slightly depending on weather conditions each year. Once the flowers begin opening, we usually share updates on our social media accounts so photographers know when the field is at its best.

Because the bloom window is short, weekend availability tends to fill quickly once the field opens.

Will other photographers be there during my session?
No. Your reservation gives you private access to the field during your scheduled time.

We do not book overlapping sessions in the same field, so you won’t need to work around other photographers or clients during your rental.

Can I bring props or styling items for my session?
Yes. Photographers are welcome to bring props such as chairs, stools, blankets, or other small styling pieces.

We simply ask that props do not damage the flowers and that all setup and cleanup happen within your reserved booking window, since additional time before or after the session cannot be guaranteed.

Can I host mini sessions in the larkspur field?
Yes, mini sessions are completely welcome.

When you reserve the field, the time block is exclusively yours, which means you’re free to photograph as many clients as you’d like during your scheduled window. Many photographers use their booking to run mini sessions or photograph multiple families back-to-back.

What happens if the weather is bad?
If weather conditions aren’t workable, you’re welcome to reschedule your session for another available date.

If you choose to cancel instead of rescheduling, refunds follow our cancellation policy:

  • More than 48 hours before your rental: full refund
  • 24–48 hours before your rental: 50% refund
  • Less than 24 hours before your rental: non-refundable
Are clients allowed to walk into the flowers?
Yes, clients are welcome to walk into the flowers and interact with the field during the session.

Each booking also includes the opportunity for clients to pick a small handful of stems to create a bouquet, which often makes for beautiful, natural photos.

We do ask that guests stay within the designated session areas. Our personal playground is not part of the rental space and is not available for photography.
