      Hi Lisa! Nice to meet you! My daughter is going to be a freshman @ University of South Alabama this August. So you should see some Mobile photos here in the fall. Thank you so much for the compliment! ~amy

  2. I love how you treat your backgrounds, it really makes all the flowers pop out in the foreground and gives depth to the shots and plays of all the beautiful details of the flowers. I think most of us passing by a flower or anything else for that matter don’t really take a closer look or pay attention and there where you take time to showcase and display all that beauty for us to marvel upon.

      I think you have the same eye, but just got your camera. So far, you are proving me right, Eva. Your photography is amazing for someone who just got one. I so look forward to seeing more of yours. Thank you. ~amy

    I LOVE all these flowers and the fence is divine! Love all the colours, everything, I want to live there among the flowers. Is it your garden? Karen.

      Oh, how I wish I could say it was my garden. No. It was a nursery an hour south of Birmingham. A place that is rather famous because their gardens are old fashioned flowers that few buy these days. It was called, “Petals from the Past” & it was heaven on earth. ~amky

  4. Hello Amy! I see what you mean – so lush. However.

    You may wish to reconsider wanting the ones in the first picture anywhere on your property: those are opium poppies. Check your local laws: growing those is illegal in several places. Should you wish to go ahead, you can buy seed by the pound at any grocery store. Just ask for bakery-grade poppy seeds.

      WOW. Ok. I didn’t know that. They didn’t sell those, I think those gardens were years old. You can really grow them from the grocery store?! I didn’t know that you could grow them from seed that way. I like my little poppies anyway, these were almost four feet tall. Thanks for the lesson, Alessandro! ~amy
