A Maternity Session with the Spring Tulips 

A maternity session at Burnside Farm in Northern Virginia is the perfect way to welcome spring! Walk along the rows of colorful tulips, bring a basket to pick your own flowers and have photos taken to document this special season of life. 

Burnside Farm, located in Nokeville, Virginia, is a flower farm that plants over 2 million tulips and daffodils each spring. Every April, the farm is open for ‘pick your own flowers’ for 3 weeks; The exact dates for 2023 are still to be determined. Tickets to the 2023 Festival of Spring are available online and range from $14-23 per person. Tickets are limited per day to give each guest a pleasant experience and prevent overcrowding. Be sure to get your tickets as soon as they are made available!

Photography Rules at Burnside Farm:

Burnside Farm does allow photography on the property. I suggest a weekday session to avoid having a lot of people in the background of your images. After hours tickets are also available on the Burnside Farm Website as staffing allows.

Tips For Maternity photos at Burnside Farm:

1.) Dress in neutral colors. Since the flowers are bright and colorful, it is best to wear something neutral. I love white for Spring photo sessions with the colorful tulips and daffodils.

2.) Bring a few props! A blanket, hat, and/or basket are a few fun props to bring to add some personality and interest to your images.

3.) Have fun! I will capture images of you walking down the rows of flowers, filling your basket with beautiful blooms, and enjoying quality time with your family!

4.) Go on a weekday when there aren’t as many people visiting. Buy tickets ahead of time to ensure they don’t sell out.
