Flex boxes collapsing on top of the other

I'm trying to make a text box collapse down the images, but the moment it does so in front of the images. Also I can't make the images collapse with space between them. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I´ve tried different thing and search for a while but with no answers, I could only found things about collapsed margins, but not about this.

body{
  margin: 0;
  background-color: #120E0A;
  height: 1300px;
} 
 /*Check out*/
.checkouttext{
  display: flex;
  font-family: 'Abril Fatface', cursive;
  color: #d9bd66;
  font-size: 30px;
  height: 100px;
  width: 100%;
  align-items:center;
  justify-content: center;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  flex-direction: row;
}
.checkoutimages{
  display: flex;
  width: 100%;
  height: 670px;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: space-around;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
}
/*About*/
.about{
  display: flex;
  align-items: flex-start;
  justify-content: flex-start;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  max-width: 1200px;
  max-height: 200px;
}
.abouttitle{
  font-family: 'Abril Fatface', cursive;
  color: #d9bd66;
  margin-left: 20px;
  font-size: 25px;
}
.abouttext{
  width: 1300px;
  color: white;
  margin-left: 15px;
  font-size: 18px;

You are setting the height of the entire checkoutimages div to height: 670px; This means that this is the total height allocated to the div... even if the images are being wrapped onto another row. The elements following this div will be positioned based on that height, so if the content is bigger than 670px the next elements will be placed on top of them.

If you want the images within that div to have a max height of 670px, you can do it like this:

.checkoutimages img { max-height: 670px; }

Or if you want to add space before and after the checkoutimages div, you can add margin or padding:

.checkoutimages { margin-top: 65px; margin-bottom: 65px; }

Working Example:

body {
  margin: 0;
  background-color: #120E0A;
  height: 1300px;
}


/*Check out*/

.checkouttext {
  display: flex;
  font-family: 'Abril Fatface', cursive;
  color: #d9bd66;
  font-size: 30px;
  height: 100px;
  width: 100%;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  flex-direction: row;
}

.checkoutimages {
  display: flex;
  width: 100%;
  margin-top: 65px;
  margin-bottom: 65px;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: space-around;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
}

.checkoutimages img {
  max-height: 670px;
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}


/*About*/

.about {
  display: flex;
  align-items: flex-start;
  justify-content: flex-start;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  max-width: 1200px;
  max-height: 200px;
}

.abouttitle {
  font-family: 'Abril Fatface', cursive;
  color: #d9bd66;
  margin-left: 20px;
  font-size: 25px;
}

.abouttext {
  width: 1300px;
  color: white;
  margin-left: 15px;
  font-size: 18px;
}
