This engagement session at Percy Warner Park was all about playful, carefree energy. We started a little more formal, capturing some editorial, posed shots for their Save the Dates. But as the session went on and the sun began to dip, they changed into blue jeans and white t-shirts, and that’s when the personality began to shine.

ToggleThe rest of the session was full of movement — running across open fields, rolling in the grass, and exploring the trails and stairs throughout the park. It was hot, playful, and was almost like capturing stills from a movie. Toward the end of the session, it felt as if I wasn’t even there, capturing the emotion that comes when a couple is completely at ease.
From the open fields to the beautiful trails and charming stairs, Percy Warner Park offers a variety of spaces that feel effortless and natural. It’s a location that encourages couples to move, explore, and just be themselves. Perfect for carefree engagement sessions!
Percy Warner Park is such a versatile spot, which makes it perfect for engagement sessions that reflect your personalities. Here are some ideas to make your session feel uniquely you:
Picnic in the Fields: Bring a blanket, some snacks, and enjoy a moment together. It’s a great way to capture candid, intimate interaction.
Music Together: Share headphones, play a favorite song, or create a playlist for one another. The energy is natural, and it often sparks laughter, dancing, or just connection.
Board Games or Cards: Bring a small game to play in a field or under a shady tree — it’s fun, and creates real interaction.
Morning Coffee & Sunrise: Start the day with a sunrise session and a coffee. The soft morning light and quiet energy make for intimate, calm portraits.
Go for a Walk or Hike: Percy Warner has trails, stairs, and open paths. Walking together allows for natural moments and movement that translate beautifully in photos.
The key is to pick activities that feel authentic to you. Whether it’s running through the fields, dancing to your favorite song, or just sitting and talking, the best photos come when you’re genuinely enjoying the moment together.
One of my favorite parts was just getting to know this couple. Their energy is infectious, and they wanted this session to reflect the life and joy they share together. We captured genuine moments that truly tell their story — fun, lighthearted, and full of connection.
This session serves a reminder that engagement photos don’t have to be stiff or formal. They can be playful, carefree, full of life and feel like you.
