Spring is so beautiful with all of the colourful flowers and blossoms. I always try to get to an event like the Abbotsford Tulip Festival each year because they make for good photos! The Abbotsford Tulip Festival has a whole 10 acres of tulips and it is just stunning! It is such a great way to celebrate spring on a sunny day.
There are a lot of opportunities for taking photos at the Abbotsford Tulip Festival, and long hours so that you can capture some sunrise or sunset lighting. We went for sunrise (mid-week) and it turned out to be a beautiful day. Weekends are usually really busy on the good weather days and not the best for photos unless you like a lot of random people in your photos.
Wear Boots to the Abbotsford Tulip Festival
Wear boots because it is a field and muddy. I know of several people that went there there with cute shoes or perfectly white shoes that ended up ruined. I have a photo showing the mud below but you can see it splattered all over my legs in some photos, too. My Sorel boots came in handy and I think they looked just fine with this dress.
Also, let’s all just take a minute and appreciate how awesome Thomas Bullock is for taking these killer photos at the Abbotsford Tulip Festival! ❤ Clearly I had a hard time just picking a handful.
This dress is one of my favourites because it has pockets. Who doesn’t love a dress with pockets?!?

Have a great day! Have you ever been to a tulip festival?
This blog post is brought you in collaboration with The Abbotsford Tulip Festival who graciously let me and others in my group in to take photos free of charge. I love supporting my local community whenever possible and this is a wonderful event for the Fraser Valley.

I’m obsessed with tulips! They’re my second favorite flower after gerber daisies. These pictures are amazing. I definitely understand why you would have trouble picking just a few.
