​Hitchin Lavender Farm
​Ickleford, Hitchin, Hertfordshire

This location boasts a stunning natural backdrop of purple lavender, blooming in July. A perfect and unique Summer location. There is parking on site, a café, shop and toilets. Push chair accessible.

There are additional fees to use Hitchin Lavender's field for your session; 

A Professional Photography Fee
​Plus...
An Entry & Lavender Picking Fee per Adult
An Entry & Lavender Picking Fee per Child


​Please contact me to discuss lavender fees
These fees are in addition to your package price and go directly to Hitchin Lavender on your session day

Please note that these fees are set by Hitchin Lavender, not myself, and are subject to change each year. Up-to-date fees will be available closer to the 2021 season.

​Lavender sessions are usually on Friday evenings (with the following Tuesday evening as a fall-back in case the Friday session is rained off). Sessions start at 7pm, with the farm closing at 9pm.

​There is always very limited availability (just a handful of sessions a year) so please book early.


​2021 Lavender Notice

If you are interested in a ​lavender session in 2021, please get in touch and I will add you to my list - as soon as dates and fees are available, I'll get in touch with you to book. Spaces as always will be very limited and once dates are realised, will be booked on a first-come-first-served basis.


You can visit Hitchin Lavender's website here: http://www.hitchinlavender.com

​
Please bear in mind that all locations can vary quite considerably year-to-year, and depending on the light conditions on the day. These images are a guide only, no two sessions look exactly the same even when taken a few days apart.

​On cloudy evenings, we shoot up the field with the rows of lavender falling behind. On sunny evenings, we shoot across the field for backlit light. The colour of the lavender will vary according to the light on your session day, with more pinkish hues on sunny evenings and more purple hues on cloudy evenings.

Sunflowers

Sunflowers at Hitchin Lavender are sometimes in bloom at the end of July. Sunflowers cannot be guaranteed to be in bloom for a lavender session - but if they are, you are welcome to use them! For the best chance of sunflowers being in bloom, choose a session as late in July as possible.
