I love peonies (and believe they helped me find my husband) and am smitten with these from photographer Kari Herer.

First seen at Cup of Jo and then reminded again over at City Sage

I have been so obsessed with Kari’s work lately! I heart her Paris Market photos best. She is so talented!

what if you’ve found love, but he just needs that extra little push? will peonies help me there? i’ll just have to try it out.

I love her photos – they remind me a bit of Dutch still lifes – the opulence of the blossoms and the austerity of the background … lovely.

Have you looked up any flower scans? People scan arrangements of flowers on their computers – it gives the same color/dark contrast. I love them and would love to make my own.

Love these – and I love any flowers in glass bottles – my favourite is a milk bottle.

Peonies are my favorite flower, so feminine. Love them. I also like the dark background of these photos.

These are gorgeous! I want them in my kitchen… the flowers and the photos.

I can almost smell them. It’s still freezing here in Missouri but images of these warm me up!
