BROOKSIDE GARDENS DRAMATIC NIGHTIME ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS IN MARYLAND | IRIS & KRIS
Engagement sessions are the perfect opportunity to capture the genuine dynamic between two people before the wedding day arrives. For this session at Brookside Gardens in Maryland, we wanted to perfectly blend natural, organic moments with a touch of high-end cinematic flair. By bringing our signature professional chill presence, we skipped the awkward posing and just let the couple explore the beautiful grounds.
We crafted the session around three distinct scenes within the gardens, allowing their authentic connection to lead the way as they walked through the vibrant florals and lush pathways. But as the sun went down, we switched gears completely. To finish the evening, we introduced a vintage red classic car and brought out the direct flash to create a dramatic, editorial-style night scene that felt straight out of a magazine.
