There’s something truly magical about sunflowers. Standing tall and golden, they create the perfect backdrop for capturing heartfelt moments between loved ones. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing Carissa and her daughter, Aria, at the breathtaking Majura Valley Sunflower Maze – and the results were pure sunshine.

Majura Valley’s Sunflower Maze, just outside of Canberra, bursts into bloom every summer, offering a dreamy landscape of golden hues and soft natural light. It’s an idyllic setting for a family photoshoot, and Carissa and Aria made the most of it. Aria’s excitement was contagious as she ran between the sunflowers, her little hands reaching out to touch the petals, while Carissa’s loving presence grounded each moment with warmth and joy.

The golden hour glow made this session even more magical, casting a dreamy, ethereal quality in every shot. Some favorite moments included Aria nestled in her mother’s arms, her eyes full of wonder as she peeked out from behind a sunflower, and a silhouette of the two embracing as the sun dipped below the horizon.

Sunflower fields provide a stunning yet natural setting that enhances any photoshoot. Their vibrant yellow tones create a warm, joyful atmosphere, making them perfect for capturing fleeting moments. If you’ve ever dreamed of a sunflower field photoshoot, Majura Valley’s Sunflower Maze is seasonal, so plan ahead to catch the blooms at their peak. Whether for a family session, couple’s shoot, or solo portrait, let’s create something beautiful together!
