Video Shoot: Behind the Scenes with California State Floral Association


While I’m usually content wandering the fields with my camera photographing flowers, this week a video crew came out to the farm and made my field trip extra special! If you’re big on cameras, drones, flowers and farmers, follow me into the fields, where the ‘action’ took place. With a recipe from the California State Floral Association (CSFA) calling for California flower farmers and protea (plus a couple of colorful flowerbeds), the Windsong Production crew captured our story and photographed the flowers we are so passionate about growing. I invite you to take a glimpse behind the scenes as the cameras rolled.


Harvesting protea – Great shot of a ‘field bouquet’.


Temperatures are rising – Keeping the protea hydrated!

Can’t resist this ‘flowerbed’!

Another awesome ‘flowerbed’!

Making time for Mel’s favorite ‘pastime’ – Bouquet making!


Thanks to Sara and the entire Windsong crew for making this field trip a fun adventure! And, kudos to our friends at Rainbow Protea for sharing some of their beautiful flowers with us. Can’t wait to see the video!
