Visiting and shooting the lupin fields was a huge reason why we decided to visit NZ. Arriving at Lake Tekapo I half expected there to be hundreds of lupins spread right across the shore of the lake; instead the reality being only one small section of flowers still in bloom. Lupins begin blooming at Lake Tekapo around mid November and only last for a month or so before dying and heading further South, so keep this in mind! Luckily the spot we found was still unbelievably beautiful, so we spent the next hour shooting and trying to capture how mesmerising this field of flowers was to our eyes. FUNNY FACT: I was highly allergic to the flowers and spent the entire night and next day with watery eyes and constant urges to sneeze. So don’t forget to take an antihistamine if you have allergies!
