There’s something truly special about a Glen Foerd engagement session, especially in the summer months. Located along the Delaware River in Philadelphia, this historic mansion and its surrounding gardens offer a timeless, romantic backdrop that feels both elegant and relaxed.
Why a Glen Foerd Engagement Session Is So Popular
For this session, we took advantage of the lush greenery, stunning architecture, and waterfront views that Glen Foerd is known for. Summer light filters beautifully through the trees here, creating soft, flattering portraits with a classic, editorial feel. From the grand architecture to the quiet riverfront moments, every corner of the estate photographs beautifully.
Glen Foerd Estate is a favorite location for Philadelphia engagement photos because it offers so much variety in one place—formal gardens, historic details, and natural scenery—all right in the city. It’s perfect for couples looking for romantic, timeless engagement photos with a refined but approachable vibe.
If you’re planning an engagement session in Philadelphia and love historic estates with stunning outdoor spaces, Glen Foerd is always a beautiful choice.
With catering and events now being handled by Cescaphe Event Group, I’m excited to see how they elevate the wedding experience at this already stunning venue.
One of the reasons couples love a Glen Foerd engagement session is how effortlessly elegant the location feels. The estate’s historic architecture, formal gardens, and riverfront setting create a refined backdrop that still feels relaxed and natural. It’s an ideal choice for couples who want engagement photos that feel timeless, romantic, and distinctly Philadelphia without feeling overly formal.
If you’re planning a wedding in Philadelphia or the surrounding area, I’d love to capture your day as your wedding photographer.
