5 Of The Best Places To Take Engagement Photos in Greenville, SC

Updated for 2024!!

One of the questions I get the most is “where should we take our engagement photos in Greenville?

My first recommendation is to shoot at a location that has special meaning to you. Whether that is a family or friends property, or the place where you got engaged. If the place is unique or holds a special meaning to you it will always be the best.

But, what if you don’t have a special place in mind, or know anyone that owns a beautiful location?

Good news is I have you covered! Greenville and the surrounding areas in the Upstate are filled with excellent locations to have your engagement session. The ones listed here are typically free and open to the public. So lets take a look at my top 5 locations for your engagement session:

  1. Falls Park - Downtown Greenville, SC

    Nothing is more Greenville than Falls Park. With the incredible Liberty Bridge, gorgeous landscaping and even small private areas to photograph. It really is an amazing backdrop for any engagement session!

2. Furman University

Every time I step on to this campus of Furman University I am blown away! The fact this campus is so beautiful and open to the public is just amazing! From the Rose Gardens to the Clock Tower the campus is full of some of the most beautiful locations you could ask for in capturing your engagement pictures. It is a must have on your list to consider for your images.

3. Bald Rock Heritage Preserve

Bald Rock is a short drive from Greenville but it is amazing! There is something so cool about the beauty of the scenery and the rock formation set off by the graffiti on the rocks. You get some of the most amazing views around.

4. Paris Mountain State Park

Feeling just a little bit adventurous? Well Paris Mountain State Park is the spot for your engagement session. Literally just hiking in no more than a mile or two gives us some of the most amazing images you could imagine. This is by far one of my favorite locations for an engagement session.

5. SC Botanical Gardens

Technically in Clemson, SC this is one of the most gorgeous venues for engagement pictures in the upstate. You get stunning greenery and flowers with incredible views of the ponds.

These are just a few of my favorites and hopefully give you some options to consider for your engagement shoot. We are so lucky to live in a state full of small towns and gorgeous locations. There are also other major cities close by like Charlotte and Atlanta, and other incredible places like Columbia, Charleston, Myrtle Beach, or Asheville, NC.

So congratulations on your engagement and rest easy knowing that there are numerous opportunities to get amazing pictures right here in your back yard.
