I’ve always wanted to be surrounded by sunflowers as they are my favorite flowers. I haven’t had that opportunity yet, but I did get to create the effect at the Conservatory in the Bellagio.

When my husband and I got married, our wedding theme revolved around sunflowers. The morning of the wedding, I decided to take a few flowers out of the pile and experiment with a little photography of our wedding jewelry. I thought this one came out the best.
