The Flower Fields: Created For Professional Photographers

Spring Field of Crimson Clover

Outdoor Photography for Professional Photographers

We can’t wait to welcome you to our beautiful flower farm, nestled in the rolling hills between Bowling Green, Glasgow, and Scottsville! We are so delighted to share this special place with you for your outdoor photography sessions. We work hard to grow beautiful fields of flowers to help you capture your clients’ special moments. With nine acres planted out in half-acre blocks specifically for our professional photographers to utilize, we’re sure you’ll be able to capture the photos of your client’s dreams in our fields. We strive to always have at least two blocks in bloom from April until October, so you don’t need to worry…we’ll have flowers blooming.

New for 2025: Our flower fields are only available to our Partnered Professional Photographers (PPPs).

To become one of our partnered professional photographers, join our email list and we’ll send you details on how to submit your business information and COI. Once we’ve received that information, you can select the photo session package that best meets your needs, whether that is a single session or 30 sessions, you can easily purchase your session online from our website.

No reservations needed. No having to reschedule with us due to inclement weather. You, our PPP, are in control of when your session on our farm will occur with your client. All you have to do is submit your business information and COI so you are one of our PPP’s, purchase the session package in advance, and check in upon arrival at the farm via a QR code to scan.

Please note that only our Partnered Professional Photographers have access to our flower fields. If you’re an individual interested in having your photos taken at our farm, please reach out to one of our partnered photographers or ask your favorite photographer to join us as a PPP so they can capture your beautiful moments at River Bend Blooms. Below is a list of our partnered professional photographers with their contact info and a way to look at their work.

 
 

We are not open to the general public,

except through special ticketed events.

  • Payment for your session is expected before your session begins and is to be made from the photographer. You'll be able to purchase sessions on our website and then will scan a QR code upon arrival at the farm to check in for your prepaid session.  Easy peasy, with no reservations needed, just pay online and then check in at the farm.

  • The standard cost is $65 per session. There is no time limit. One session equals one family unit.

  • 15 Session Package is available for $600. Additional sessions beyond 15 will be offered at the same rate per session.

  • 30 Session Package is available for $1000.  When we have a special backdrop available to use (think flower truck filled with dahlias) you'll be the first to be offered availability. Additional sessions beyond 30 will be offered at the same rate per session.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No, we are not open to the general public. Only our Partnered Professional Photographers have access to our flower fields for their clients.

  • Only our Partnered Professional Photographers have access to our flower fields for their clients. Our PPPs do not need an appointment.

  • All payments will come from our professional photographers through our website.

  • The fee for one session is $65, with discounted packages available for professional photographers to purchase on our website.

  • NO. We love fur babies, but at this time we aren’t allowing pets.

  • A detailed map will be emailed to our PPPs for each crop season showing parking and field locations.

    Look for the signs with arrows marking the entrance to the fields on the right hand side, immediately after the grain bin. Turn to the right and park perpendicular to the fence. 

    Our barn, greenhouse production area, and private home are off limits.

  • This question is always hard to answer because we don’t control the weather and can never be sure how long the blooms in a field will last. 

    Watching our stories on social media is the best way to see what is currently blooming and we try to note when a field is at peak.

    Our Partnered Professional Photographers will receive an approximate bloom calendar with a full list of flowers we have planned for the year.

  • No, this is not a U-Pick.  It is meant to be a beautiful space to visually enjoy for professional photographers and their clients.

  • No, we do not have restroom facilities. The closest public restrooms are at the Buc-ee’s or IGA in Smiths Grove, which is 12 miles away.

  • Your professional photographer can help you plan the perfect outfit for you photo shoot. During the heat of summer, we recommend wearing light weight clothing and coming early in the morning or later in the evening.  Shoes that can handle uneven ground are recommended, as it is a farm and the paths are mown, but not necessarily level.

    There is not access to changing facilities on the property.

  • No. Drones are not allowed.

  • Yes, however, there is a significant difference in demands placed on our farm and its resources by individual photographers versus a full production crew.

    This is reflected in a pricing difference and the need to reserve with us ahead of any shoot. A commercial shoot, whether film or photography, benefits a business while our professional photographers work one on one with individual clients.  Commercial production teams often require larger setups and more complex lighting and gear, as well as including a larger amount of people on our property.

    In order to book River Bend Blooms as your location, you will need to inform us of the full scope of the project including how many people will be involved, what equipment you will be bringing, and provide your business license and COI.
