beautiful! what are your cultural conditions? does it smell? good or bad?

if you leave the camera in the greenhouse for 10 / 15 min it should adjust not be fogged after a while. I would use a clear UV protective filter on the lens so you do not need to wipe the lens itself.
Screw on a filter, leave the camera in the greenhouse for a while, then wipe the fiter and take the photo. should work.

What temps do they like? I'm considering getting a bulbo

The fogged lens is from the camera/lens being colder than the environment. Best to put camera in a large sealed ziplock bag and let it come up to temperature.
That way you don't risk letting the humidity condense in the interior of the camera body or lens.
Moisture inside the camera can destroy the components either right away or weeks later...

moisture inside the camera can spell its demise!!

Awesome is right, must be a stinker, how exciting. Is this the first blooming for you? How large is the plant?
