Bartram's Garden Engagement Photos

Bartram's Garden

Bartram’s Garden is a 45-acre Philadelphia destination that combines an outdoor classroom and recreational area with gorgeous scenery. An oasis in the middle of the city, the venue is named after John Bartram, who originally purchased the land and built his white stone home here in 1728. It has been a garden ever since, even entertaining guests like George Washington and Benjamin Franklin! Its history and beauty make this spot an excellent location for Philadelphia engagement photography.

With many different flower beds, world-class landscaping, and striking atmospheric elements, your shoot here is sure to delight. Choose from a wide range of textures and moods, from the manicured lawns and gardens, to wild fields and cattails with the city’s skyline in the background, to flowering meadows and trees.

You’ll love walking along tree-lined paths deep into this wonderful location, where you can pose against fence posts or capture Philadelphia in the background. Beneath the spreading trees, you’ll relish the lush green lawns, and flower-studded shrubs. The ivy-covered fences and 18th century stone home set in an enclave of trees will steal your heart. Bartram’s Garden is rustic, historical, and completely romantic, perfect for the Philadelphia couple who wants a unique and fun engagement shoot.
