Shutterbug Iris Garden Photo Walk

Join Shutterbug Salem for a one-of-a-kind photography experience at the stunning Schreiner's Iris Gardens as they celebrate 101 years of iris-growing excellence during their annual Bloom Season Event!

Widely recognized as a must-see, bucket list destination for gardeners, photographers, and flower lovers alike, this breathtaking event showcases over 1,000 named iris varieties in peak bloom at the largest iris farm in the country. It’s the perfect opportunity to capture vibrant colors, dreamy landscapes, and unforgettable spring moments.

Spend the day exploring 10 acres of meticulously curated display gardens, wandering through open iris fields, and soaking in the sights and fragrances of not only irises—but also seasonal favorites like lupines, alliums, peonies, columbines, and delphiniums.
