Good afternoon my lovelies.  As promised, part II of our photo shoot from this spring.  Carmen looks absolutely dreamy in mustard yellow gloves and tulle skirt, complimented by blush pink garden roses and quicksand roses.  Sigh.

A few weeks back I had the opportunity to get together with a bunch of seriously talented and gorgeous ladies.  Together we covered all of our bases: hair makeup (Ashley Readings), photography (Alex Lee from Young Hearts Photography), styling (Danielle Gulic), and of course, some flowers.   With a little help from Songsa's "at a '90's School Dance" playlist, and a cup of hot coffee in our hands to keep us warm, we put together a creative photo shoot that I think  you'll just love.  

I wanted to share with you a tiny sneak peak of the day with some of my iphone pics.  Official images coming soon!  

I had to start with a snapshot of the most darling mantle place setup I've seen in ages...

Patchouli love is a blog dedicated to all things beauty.  If you ask us, most of the time that means flowers.   We truly LOVE flowers, and our goal here is simple: to share and bring some beauty into your day.

The below pictures were taken on a hot summer day in 2012 in the sun-drenched studio of Rebecca Wood's photography studio.  We got some great shots that day, but these peach poppies were the stars of the show.
