New York Botanical Garden Photographer

Working as a photographer for the New York Botanical Garden (NYBG) during the spring blossoms has been an absolute dream. There’s something truly magical about capturing the garden in its full bloom, especially after the long, quiet winter. The sheer variety of flowers that pop up during the season makes for an ever-changing, vibrant backdrop that never gets old.

One of the best parts of photographing during the spring blossoms is the rush of color. From the delicate pinks of cherry blossoms to the bold purples and yellows of tulips, every corner of the garden comes alive in a way that feels almost surreal. As a photographer, I get to focus on the intricate details—the soft petals, the glistening dew on a leaf, or the way light filters through the trees. It’s all about capturing the essence of nature’s beauty in its most fleeting moments.

But it’s not just about the flowers. The people visiting the garden, whether they’re families, tourists, or gardening enthusiasts, add a whole new layer to the story. I love capturing those candid moments of people enjoying the blooms—whether it’s a couple taking a photo under a canopy of cherry blossoms or a child marveling at a flower. It’s these small, authentic moments that make my work so meaningful.

The NYBG staff also deserves a shout-out. They work tirelessly to make sure the gardens are maintained and look their best, and it’s clear in every shot I take. There’s such a sense of care and dedication in the air, and I’m always in awe of the work they do.

All in all, being a photographer at NYBG during the spring blossoms is an experience I cherish. It’s not just about taking pretty pictures; it’s about capturing the feeling of renewal, joy, and awe that comes with the season. I’m grateful for the opportunity to document these beautiful moments and share them with others!
