Highland Park Engagement Session in Rochester, NY

When it comes to engagement sessions in Rochester, NY, Highland Park stands out as one of the most iconic and romantic locations. Known for its historic landscaping, colorful blooms, and sweeping views, this urban oasis is the perfect setting for couples who want timeless, natural, and emotion-filled photos.

In this session, we captured [Couple's First Names] on a crisp afternoon filled with golden light, laughter, and the soft rustle of leaves. Whether you're planning a spring shoot during the Lilac Festival, a cozy fall session among the maple trees, or a snow-dusted winter stroll, Highland Park delivers beauty in every season.


Why Choose Highland Park for Your Engagement Photos?

1. Natural Beauty Year-Round

From the cherry blossoms in early spring to the vibrant fall foliage, Highland Park offers a dynamic backdrop that reflects the changing seasons of love. The famous lilac bushes, the Lamberton Conservatory, and the hidden woodland trails provide a mix of classic and whimsical settings for every couple.

2. Iconic Rochester Location

Located in the heart of Rochester, Highland Park is both accessible and filled with rich history. Designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, the same landscape architect who co-designed Central Park, it’s a local treasure that brings character and legacy to your photos.


3. Picture-Perfect Photo Spots

Some of our favorite engagement photo spots in Highland Park include:

  • The stone steps and archways near the reservoir
  • The walking bridge nestled in the wooded area
  • The Lamberton Conservatory for lush, tropical greenhouse shots (especially great in colder months!)
  • Open meadows with sun-drenched golden hour light
