5 Tips for a Stunning Engagement Photo Session at any Botanical Garden

If you're considering a garden backdrop for your next photo session, here are 5 tips to make it a success!


  1. Plan Around the Golden Hours - Schedule the session during the golden hour (early morning or late afternoon) for soft, warm lighting that enhances natural tones and adds a romantic glow.

  2. Coordinate Outfits with the Surroundings - Choose outfits that complement the garden's colors. Soft pastels ,earthy tones, or floral patterns can harmonize beautifully with the natural backdrop without overwhelming the scenery.

  3. Incorporate the Garden's Unique Features - Scout the location beforehand to identify standout spots like flower arches, pathways, fountains, or greenhouses.

  4. Encourage Natural poses and Interactions - Focus on capturing candid moments: walking hand in hand, sharing a laugh, or a gentle kiss amidst the flowers. These natural interactions make the photos feel authentic and timeless.

  5. Bring Props for a Personal Touch - Subtle props like a picnic blanket with a small bouquet , or even a vintage umbrella can add charm and context while keeping the garden's elegance at a forefront.
