If you would like to join in on a field trip to Beth Fabey's place to photograph flowers from her gardens as well as some still life set-ups on Sat., OCT. 23, 2021, at 2:00 p.m., please contact Beth at nonnie.fabey@gmail.com as soon as possible to let her know so that she knows how much prep she needs to do.
All work will be outside as Beth is not yet opening up the house to visitors.... She hopes to have a number of stations set up outside so that those who wish to socially distance can do so.
Perhaps we could order pizza delivery for an early dinner to spend some time socializing when we are done photographing. (Bring a lawn chair.)
To see some images of Beth's gardens, follow this link FieldTripBethFabey.pdf
The following flowers will still be in bloom. (See attached snapshots for examples): Gardens:
Dahlias
Mums
Double Autumn Rouge and Autumn Carnation azaleas
Angel Wing begonias
Cleome
Multi-colored "Scarlet Sage"
Fall crocus
Zinnias
Montauk Daisies
Deck pots:
Tropical hibiscus
Angelonia
Geraniums
Bougainvillea
Double impatiens
Penta (which bumblebees and butterflies love)
The flowers can be shot in place or she can also pick flowers and put in vases on tables. She has a backdrop stand as well as clotheslines if you would like to bring a backdrop or sheets to drape, as well as any props you might want to bring to set up for still lifes. Beth can supply some items but a variety of choices would be better.
If you have a tabletop background stand and fabric for tabletops, please bring those as well. She has a macro rail if you would like to experiment with that.
Please respond as soon as possible to nonnie.fabey@gmail.com to let Beth Fabey know if you would like to come.
Hope to see you there!
