The Biltmore Pt. I (Patreon)

Ahhh... The Biltmore Estate, where so many historic things can be found. It's been used on movie sets and tours of the inside of the Estate are available. In these, we visited the greenhouse on the estate as well as the architecture and art outside of the building. There were long woven paths leading into the forest where you'd find gazebos and flower beds.

We didn't expect the rain, but it turned out to be a down poor. We waited it out here and there, and even though it ruined my makeup and hair and got my gown dirty, I think the vibe actually worked out really well. These feel so moody and provoking and seem powerful to me. This was definitely an experience I won't forget (especially when we were politely kicked out of the inside of the estate, haha... more on that later!).

The inside of the greenhouse was astonishing. Overflowing with colors and greenery with a train making its way around the sides of the building, weaving in and out of the plants and hallways. It was really something else. I posted some behind-the-scenes video from it on my TikTok, check it out!

Special thanks for Stephanie for letting me model this concept for her. I'm glad she saved the Estate for me!
