a florae
A florae is owned and operated by Rachel Hunter. It is a boutique flower shop specializing in the mindful art of arranging flowers as nature intended them to be. With grace and freedom to show off their natural shape and color.
A florae is a reflection of hard work and dedication to a craft that beautifies events and homes with florals, but it's much more than that. A florae was built on the foundation of choosing to believe in one's self against all odds, while never losing sight of the journey's purpose - to serve human connection, to honor all love stories and to never stop evolving. It's more than a passion, A florae is a creative way of life and flowers are the muse.

BOUDOIR!
We love opening our space for all styles and types of photography shoots! Have you ever thought about doing a boudoir shoot?
It doesn’t have to be risqué—unless you want it to be, and if so, more power to you!
Our absolute favorite boudoir photographer is Austin from The Drawhorns (featured in the gallery above). He also runs an incredible boudoir photography business called Whyfor Boudoir (Longmont). Austin’s unique approach focuses on teaching you how to move naturally, embracing fluid motion rather than relying on stiff, static poses that can sometimes feel awkward.
Step outside your comfort zone and do the dang thing—you won’t regret it!
These images were from our first photoshoot in the building after the demo was complete. This was so much fun to do and gave us our first sight of what the lighting looks like throughout the building. It is incredible! All the amazing photos were shot by Annaleisa with Meraki Photo Co (Denver). Hair and makeup by The Bridal Goddess (Longmont). Dress from Runaway Bridal (RINO Denver).
We absolutely LOVE hosting family photo sessions here!
Photographers, our space is perfect for booking blocks of time to shoot multiple family sessions in one location. And clients, if you love what you see, feel free to recommend our venue to your photographer for your next family photoshoot. With so many versatile backdrops, the possibilities for unique and stunning images are endless.
Senior portraits also look incredible here! Our own family had photos taken by the amazing Natalie Gray Creative, a Longmont-based stylist and photographer who captures the most breathtaking editorial-style shots. We can’t recommend her enough!
