If you've been following us for any amount of time, you know we LOVE flower fields. I mean, who doesn't love a flower field right?! My mom has been taking me to flower fields all around Oregon since I was little and they really are our happy place. It's so fun finding new ones. Poppies tend to bloom between May and June, so we were really lucky to find this field and have the flowers still blooming in mid July. A few months ago, I wanted to try finding a poppy field and didn't have any luck with Google. I have been following Becca Lueck of Becca Jean Photography (a local Portland photographer) for a while on Facebook, and she posted a photo of a session in a field of poppies! Immediately, I had to find out where they were. Lucky for us, she had a sunset session open that night. So, to the Oregon poppy fields we headed!
I'm quite certain I say this often, but I apologize in advance for all the photos! I honestly could not narrow it down to just a few. These poppy fields are shut down, but I've seen a lot of random fields towards Salem! The owner is not allowing people to visit here, just as an FYI!
girls' shoes (they wear them every day and I even wore them when I was a baby!)
We weren't planning on doing family photos like we normally do this Summer, but I'm so glad this randomly popped up with Becca! This was my first time meeting her, but she has done a couple of my friends sessions and they turned out gorgeous. She was so sweet with the girls and made us all feel super comfortable right away. Becca made them (and us) laugh and was so laid back. It was like she wasn't even there and we were just doing our thing. If you live in the Portland area, definitely look her up! Her website is here.
Becca also offers some styling services and has a ton of dresses to choose from! We ended up using mostly our dresses and adding in an adorable mustard color dress by Fly Bird Handmade, which went with the poppies perfectly. Most of our clothing is sold out and the two dresses Madi was wearing are actually hand me downs from McKinlee! I will try to link as much as I can below!
Madi's dress old - similar (and one not so similar but adorable!) here, here and here
McKinlee's dress is almost sold out
Madi's bows / Madi's dress old - super similar one here
I just can't even with the way they are looking at each other
I am planning on doing a round up post of all our favorite flower fields around Oregon, but first we need to head to the Dahlia fest and the Sunflower fields when they start blooming here! I'll keep you posted 🙂
Pin this image to save for later!
