And not just in a general sense like \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/smithsonian-gardens-engagement-photos-chrissy-john\/\">historic<\/a>,\u201d \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/ellanor-c-lawrence-park-virginia-engagement-photos\/\">rural<\/a>,\u201d \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/national-gallery-of-art-engagement-session-us-capitol-photos\/\">artsy<\/a>\u201d or \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/old-town-alexandria-engagement-photos-sarah-mike\/\">quaint<\/a>.\u201d No, the DMV has EXACTLY what you\u2019re looking for, no matter how specific your tastes. And as longtime residents of the DC metro area, we love using our knowledge to help you find the perfect engagement photoshoot location. We can pretty much guarantee we\u2019ll find you a spot that checks every box. Just like we did for Alicia and Jenna \u2013 a lovely couple whose engagement we photographed recently. They had a clear idea of what they wanted, and we found a location that matched their vision. <a href=\"https:\/\/montgomeryparks.org\/parks-and-trails\/brookside-gardens\/virtual-tour-map\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brookside Gardens<\/a> in suburban Maryland was just the right fit for them. And one reason they loved their Brookside Gardens engagement photos was because the setting was everything they dreamed it would be.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Brookside Gardens is an Awesome Engagement Photoshoot Location<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what exactly did Alicia and Jenna want from a location for their engagement session? For starters, an outdoor spot that showcases the Capital region\u2019s natural beauty. Fortunately, coming up with dozens of options in and around DC is easy. There are so many gorgeous parks and wooded areas that make spectacular settings for engagement portraits!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The couple also wanted a place in the Maryland suburbs. Alicia grew up there and liked the idea of engagement photos in a place with particular significance to her. (We always encourage couples to choose engagement photo locations that mean something to them or their relationship. A meaningful place makes the experience more comfortable and helps give context to the images we create for them.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brookside Gardens checked both boxes. A 50-acre public display garden within Wheaton Regional Park, it\u2019s one of the crown jewels in the Montgomery County Parks network of outdoor green spaces. More importantly, Brookside Gardens is also one of the most gorgeous engagement photo session locations in the DMV. Especially in the autumn!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most impressive thing about Brookside Gardens as an engagement photo spot, though, is its diversity. No matter what your preferences, you are sure to find something you like. In the hour we spent there creating gorgeous portraits for Alicia and Jenna, we barely even scratched the park\u2019s surface. Here is a quick list of all of the different areas within Brookside Gardens\u2019 50 acres:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Aquatic Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Azalea Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Butterfly Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Children\u2019s Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Rose Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Japanese Style Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Trial Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Rain Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Woodland Walk<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Perennial Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Yew Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Maple Terrace<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Fragrance Garden<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two conservatories<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Please note that an engagement session at Brookside Gardens requires an appointment and a permit. Contact us for more details!)<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gorgeous Fall Brookside Gardens Engagement Photos<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We didn\u2019t have to go very far into the park to find a great spot in which to kick off Alicia and Jenna\u2019s engagement session. Just down the hill from the Visitor\u2019s Center is a lovely path through the woods. With the trees lining it in their full fall colors, it was a beautiful site for some \u201cwarmup\u201d photos of Alicia and Jenna in Brookside Gardens. (We start almost every engagement session with a few very easy poses to help our couples relax and get used to being photographed.) Almost from the beginning, Jenna and Alicia found ways to add more romantic touches to those portraits. The little things they did \u2013 like caressing each other\u2019s cheeks or gently fixing each other\u2019s hair \u2013 added a layer of sweetness to just about every shot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3707 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-7.jpg\" alt=\"Two brides posing during their fall color engagement session at the Brookside Gardens in Maryland by Potok's World Photography\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-7.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-7-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-7-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1200px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Romantic Engagement Portraits at Brookside Gardens in Wheaton MD<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once Jenna and Alicia were fully relaxed and into the flow of their engagement session, we brought them around to the back of one of the two ponds that comprise the park\u2019s Aquatic Gardens. (More on what makes that such a special part of Brookside Gardens below.) In one of the more secluded spots, we found some very tall green shoots growing near the edge of the pond. They were so tall, in fact, that Alicia and Jenna could easily cuddle together inside them. That created a cozy, intimate atmosphere that we love for romantic engagement photos. Images with that look and feel make it seem like the couple are the only two people on earth. Which they are to each other, of course!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3708 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-4.jpg\" alt=\"Two brides posing during their fall color engagement session at the Brookside Gardens in Maryland by Potok's World Photography\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-4-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-4-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1200px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creative Engagement Photos Inside Anderson Pavilion<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A short walk around the pond led us to the most distinctive element in that part of Brookside Gardens. Anderson Pavilion is a lovely little gazebo on a small peninsula jutting out into the water. Plants and trees grow close around about half of the outside of the pavilion. That gives the interior space that aforementioned private feel we love so much.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anderson Pavilion\u2019s ceiling also makes it a great space for creative engagement photos that use light in fun ways. For example, we set up a flash behind Jenna and Alicia that turned the entire interior of the gazebo bright orange. That added a cool look to pictures of silhouettes of the couple dancing. Similarly, aiming those lights at the leaves outside the pavilion enhanced the yellow and orange fall colors, giving pictures of the couple the bold, bright colors our work is known for.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The bridge connecting Anderson Pavilion to the \u201cmainland\u201d and the rest of Brookside Gardens is another great spot for engagement portraits. For instance, we created more silhouettes of Alicia and Jenna standing at the gazebo end of the bridge. From that angle, the structure\u2019s lines are very visually pleasing and draw your eye right to the couple. We also posed Jenna and Alicia in the middle of the bride and went around along the bank. From there, we were able to take pictures of the couple through some bushes with bright red berries. The resulting images had both those colors we love so much and a beautiful, dreamy quality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3702 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-30.jpg\" alt=\"Two brides posing during their fall color engagement session at the Brookside Gardens in Maryland by Potok's World Photography\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-30.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-30-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-30-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1200px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Aquatic Gardens: A Cool Place for Nature Engagement Portraits in Brookside Gardens<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After finishing up the portraits on the bridge, we and the couple walked over to the other body of water that makes up the Aquatic Gardens. Though the eastern pond appears larger than its neighbor, it is actually a bit smaller. This illusion is due to the Anderson Pavilion peninsula essentially cutting the western pool in two. On the eastern side, there is nothing but open water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That unobstructed view makes Brookside Gardens\u2019 second pond a perfect place for otherworldly reflection pictures in the water\u2019s still, glassy surface. There\u2019s even a spot that seems tailor-made for getting those kinds of shots. On the southern shore of the pool is a little set of stone steps that ends at a \u201clanding\u201d about a foot above the water. That allows a couple to get right up close to the reflective surface, which creates a \u201cdouble image\u201d that looks awesome in engagement photos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once we got some stunning portraits of Alicia and Jenna reflected in the water, we brought them to the path circling around the pond. We used that area to do some photos that helped highlight the goofier sides of their relationship. First we had them lie down in the grass, where we took shots with their faces close together and leaves falling around them. Our aim with the leaves was not the best, though, and one ended up landing on Jenna\u2019s face. Both future brides cracked up when that happened, and Alicia slyly asked us to be sure to include that photo in their gallery. (Which we did, of course!)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3703 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-33.jpg\" alt=\"Two brides posing during their fall color engagement session at the Brookside Gardens in Maryland by Potok's World Photography\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-33.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-33-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/potokphoto.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Fall-Color-Engagement-Session-Brookside-Gardens-Virginia-Potok_s-World-Photography-33-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1200px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can You Have a Brookside Gardens Wedding Too? You Bet!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we discovered with Alicia and Jenna, Brookside Gardens is an awesome place for engagement photos. We noticed that it is also a gorgeous site for wedding celebrations. And fortunately, the park makes several of its gardens available to couples who want to tie the knot in a beautiful outdoor location. The Aquatic Overlook, which, for lack of a better word, overlooks the Aquatic Gardens, is a particularly popular spot for ceremonies and receptions. (In fact, there was a wedding reception kicking off there as we were finishing up Jenna and Alicia\u2019s engagement session.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The aptly-named Wedding Gazebo in the Fragrance Garden is another sought-after outdoor location in Brookside Gardens. As is the Japanese Tea House on Gude Island. For couples who worry about inclement weather or other nature-related issues, Brookside Gardens\u2019 Auditorium is a great alternative. That space has 75-foot-high windows that look out over the Azalea and Aquatic Gardens, giving couples the feel of an outdoor space with the security of an indoor one. And regardless of which area you choose, Brookside Gardens offers the option to set up tents and lights that allow your reception to go late into the evening.
