Our area is blooming with so many talented and creative florists, and we just love working with the gorgeous flowers they give us to use on our photo shoots. Their bouquets not only showcase their talents, but their unique knowledge about what’s trending. So, please, stop and smell the roses and peek at these beautiful bouquets!

Like always, we promise we’ll share more photos from our cover model features soon, but for now, we want to share the layout from the second of our two shoots: “Model Citizens” photographed by Julia Croteau Photography on location at Old Sugar Mill with sets by Botanica Specialty Rentals and Accents by Sage Floral Design.

Produced by Susie Baggett, Justin Buettner, Eudelys Blanco Estaba, Monica Hill, Kimberly Hunter, Tatiana Jitari, Nathalia Kallan, Alexandra Leininger, Tara Mendanha, Emily Peter, Amanda Rinehart, Wendy Sipple and Leah Sisto
