In the heart of Philadelphia is Rittenhouse Square, the city’s most popular square and a charming location for your engagement shoot. You’ll be delighted by the options here for backdrops, textures, and surfaces.
The tree-filled plaza has many flowers and a reflection pool that is ringed by a walkway and a balustrade, all of which are delightful elements that will fill your photographs with interesting detail. Classical Greek urns and ornamental lampposts adorn the entrances and other spots throughout the plaza, lending an old-fashioned and genteel air to this urban playground.
The trees, flowers, and shrubs each provide seasonal delights no matter the time of year, from the blooms of the spring and summer to the foliage of the fall. You could also choose a striking home facade to play background to your photos — you’ll find many contrast-painted doors, brick walls, and other classic styles that will inspire you for a creative session.
Surrounded by some of the most desireable real estate in the city, this iconic spot is ideal for the couple who wants to show off their city. Its history and importance in Philadelphia cultural life make Rittenhouse Square a wonderful Philadelphia engagement photography destination.
