Fabulous Flower Photography by Heather Larkin

APG Meeting July 28, 6:00–7:30 PM @ The Lyndon House

The July 2026 APG meeting will feature a presentation by APG member Heather Larkin on flower photography. Heather will show you how to turn ordinary blooms into stunning flower portraits, whether you’re shooting with a longer lens for dreamy compression or a macro lens for extreme detail. You’ll learn how to choose the right lens for the look you want, add and shape light, and use shade deliberately as a compositional tool rather than something to avoid.

Heather also covers composition and depth of field, the choices that give an image its “portrait” feeling. Most importantly, you’ll learn to see flowers differently, training your eye to notice the angles and details you’d normally walk past.
